What are the best binoculars for atronomy?

Question

Im looking for a good pair at a reasonable price?

Answer 1

why not just get a telescope?

Answer 2

Good astronomy binoculars will have a thing to mount them on a photographic tripod to keep them stable.

No idea what your price range is, but here is a good pair for less than $150:  http://www.garrettoptical.com/Garrett-11...

While those do not include a thing to mount them, you can purchase something that will do that from the same site

Answer 3

If you're going to get 15x70 binoculars, you're going to need a sturdy tripod.  You can hand hold binoculars up to about 10x.  My tripod was $250.  It's really good.

A couple of guys at the club have an "astronomy chair".  It's just a folding on a lazy susan, but there's a mount for the binoculars so you can look without holding them at all.  It's good to about 20x.  After that, your heart beat jiggles the view.

I have a cheap pair of 8x21 binoculars.  They fit in my pocket.

Answer 4

y not a telescope, itll be hard to have bionoculars when there is nothing to keep it stable in one place except wobbly hands to keep track of sightngs.
