Overview
Description
The UpClose G2 10-30x50 Zoom Porro Binocular from Celestron is a large handheld binocular with a very welcome integrated tripod thread. The 50 millimetre objectives are bountiful light gatherers allowing bright images during low light conditions such as dawn, dusk and overcast days. The expansive zoom magnification sharpens the details as the subject is enlarged from the expansive scan of 10x to the minuscule precision of 30x. This is a powerful optic that is just over the line of handheld practicality. Any support will come in handy; such as a car top, a fence, a tree or the mast stay of a boat unless of course it is being leveraged with a tripod. Besides its all around usefulness for just about any application, because of their large aperture and high magnification they are also suited for astronomical observation.
A very welcomed Apparent Angle of View (AAoV) stretches past 65 degrees at 30x power. BAK7 glass with multi-coated optics dispenses brighter, sharper, higher contrasted images. The housing is water resistant, rubber coated and made out of aluminium. There are ergonomic thumb indents and finger ridges for a firm, slip-proof grip even in inclement weather conditions. The large centre focus knob will be especially appreciated in challenging, high-stress situations. A dioptric ring adjuster and fold down rubber eyecups customise the comfort level to individual preferences. The built-in tripod threaded screw hole is located underneath a protective cap. Use of a tripod allows for added stability and comfort especially when viewing at high powers.
