Summary: Not good
Comment: Too much magnification for sky viewing. The zoom is pretty much useless as well. These NEED to be mounted on a tripod to be used at all since they have so much magnification, if you try to just hold them in your hands it is impossible to hold still enough. Also I was unable to bring a single star into view, it would appear as 2 stars.. I heard this is a problem with these binoculars.

Summary: Good binoclars for the price - but the zoom isn't very useful.
Comment: I'm happy with my purchase of these binoculars. The optics are fine and I've enjoyed looking through them. You must have a heavy duty tripod or they are useless - don't expect to hold them in your hands and get a steady view. As you zoom in the focus changes slightly and the field of view narrows considerably. I also have trouble using binoculars in general and often use a single eye. I think I might have been happier spending the same money on a decent spotting scope. But I don't regret this purchase and am enjoying having something so portable for nights I don't want to set up my telescope, or when I want to view larger phenomenon.
