## Overview

The Celestron SkyMaster Pro 20x80 binoculars combine powerful 20x magnification with massive 80mm objective lenses and premium BaK-4 prisms coated with Celestron’s XLT technology.

Complete with a tripod adapter and deluxe carry case, they deliver professional-grade optics and durability for the discerning explorer.

## Description

Product Description SkyMaster Pro binoculars are the ideal choice for amateur astronomers or anyone that observes at great distances. Compared to lower-priced large aperture binoculars, SkyMaster Pro uses superior optics, coatings, internal parts and housing materials. With large objective lenses, BaK-4 prisms and fully multi-coated optics utilizing Celestron’s proprietary XLT coating technology, the view through a SkyMaster Pro is second to none at this price point. Massive Objective Lenses - The 80 mm objective lenses have tremendous light gathering capabilities, delivering superior low light performance, even in the dimmest conditions. Choose SkyMaster Pro for use at dusk, dawn and nighttime astronomical viewing. Fully Multi-Coated Optics and BaK-4 Prisms - Every air-to-glass surface is multi-coated with Celestron’s proprietary XLT coating technology. These coatings coupled with BaK-4 prisms increase light transmission through the optical path and deliver crisp, high contrast images with outstanding resolution. Built in Tripod Adapter and RSR “Reflex Sight Ready” Rail - The built in tripod adapter of the SkyMaster Pro 20x80 not only allows the binocular to be attached to a tripod for added stability but it also acts as a balance rail by sliding along the center support rod. A red-dot finder can also be attached to the center support rod utilizing the removable rail. When properly aligned with the binocular, the red-dot finder will allow objects to be brought into view quickly. Lightweight, Waterproof Construction - The polycarbonate and aluminum housing allows the binocular to be lighter weight without sacrificing its durability. The housing with protective rubber armor is extremely rugged and durable with the ability to handle tough use. The fully waterproof housing for use in all weather conditions provides peace of mind when unexpected weather rolls in. The housing is also filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent the internal lenses from fogging when moving between extreme temperatures or when using the binocular in damp conditions. Enhanced Magnification - Bring distant objects into view with 20x magnification—great for observing celestial objects in greater detail, searching for wildlife in the brush or viewing a distant object on the horizon. Box Contains Celestron SkyMaster Pro 20 x 80 Binocular. Tripod Adaptor. Rainguard. Neck Strap. Lens Cloth. Soft Case.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the difference between the 20 x 80 Celestron binoculars and the 20 x 80 "Pro" binoculars?**
A: saw an interview where the product manager said the prisms are bigger in the Pro.  Saw a comment that the prism of the regular, non-pro only handles about 63mm of the objective lens throughput.  So Pro much brighter than the standard.  Also pro has twist-up eyecups.

Downside of Pro is only 15.5mm eye releif vs. 18mm with the standard 20x80. Another downside is the field of view is reduced to 155' compared to 195 ft. at 1000 yards.  As a glasses wearer, 15.5 is not long enough.

**Q: Why are there no pockets on the carrying case?  No place to put the extra eyecups, lens cloth, or red dot rail!**
A: I often wonder why not all dresses have pockets either. Probably the same reason airlines stopped serving meals.

**Q: I'd like to make sure i'll be able to look at the sun before i buy these binos. any tailor-made sun filters for this model? if not,any suggestions?tks**
A: You’ll have to search for any purpose made filters. Lacking those, if you have a solar filter for a telescope, mine for an 8” Celestron C8, you can create a homemade mount to hold that filter in front if the binos.

**Q: Can we zoom?**
A: No
