They are excellent for levelling up observations of the full moon every month or catching the constellation Pegasus high up in the sky this month. This is thanks to the super-wide field of view provided by the Celestron Cometron 7x50. Whilst only delivering 7x magnification, these binoculars offer a great chance to observe larger targets such as full constellations and the dust lanes of the Milky Way.
In our full Celestron Cometron 7x50 binoculars review, we gave them four stars for great value for money and their huge field of view. If you are just getting started in astronomy or are trying to foster a love of stargazing in a little one, they are an ideal choice.

In our full Celestron Cometron 7x50 review, we praised the binoculars for providing good optics at a great price. The 7x magnification is low enough to keep the image steady without a tripod, which is perfect for handheld scanning of the Milky Way and constellations. The wide exit pupil also ensures maximum brightness so star fields are nice and detailed.
