Item #  09333

Orion Scenix binoculars have always offered superior optical and mechanical quality compared to brands you find at most retail stores. And now Scenix binoculars are even better, incorporating porro prisms made from high-grade BAK-4 optical glass. These are the same prisms found in binoculars that sell for as much as four times the price.

You just can't beat Scenix for all-around value. Common, low-priced "mass market" binoculars have to cut corners by coating only one or two visible optical surfaces with antireflection coatings (and leaving many uncoated), by allowing looser tolerances on optical matching and alignment, and by employing poor-quality mechanical components.

Scenix binoculars are different. Every air-to-glass surface is antireflection coated, and the objective lenses are even multi-coated for additional light transmission. And Orion doesn't use gimmicky "ruby" coatings like you find on some brands, which only serve to turn images green!

This Orion Scenix 10x50 Wide Angle binocular is a perfect higher-power astro binocular, equally well suited for long-distance terrestrial observing. Extra wide angle 7° field. Weighs 28 oz.

Its housing is constructed of sturdy metal, not plastic, and is armored with protective rubber. The large center focusing mechanism is the same one found on many more expensive binoculars.

This binocular is rugged and reliable, delivering sharp images on demand. It includes a vinyl carrying case, lens caps, and deluxe wide neck strap. It accepts a tripod L-adapter (sold separately).

The 10 x 50 wide angle binoculars that I just received are exactly what I have been hunting for since I broke my old ones (not Orions) about 5 years ago. The Orion Scenix have excellent clarity and are comfortable to hold.They are perfect for watching wildlife out across the lake where we live.

Clear images, easy to adjust to your eyes, and convenient neck strap and carrying case. However, the field of view is narrow if you want to see the clearest sharpest images possible. Outside of this narrow field the images become blurred, especially near the edges. May recommend a binocular with a lot of eye relief for better seeing.
Good for large clusters, nebulas, and galaxies with high surface brightness. Not good for deep sky objects with low surface brightness. Is good for looking at large portions of the sky at low power.
Favorite viewing location:??City/Suburb
Favorite object to observe:??M31, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Vesta, and various star clusters.
No, I do not recommend this product.

What a company! I ordered the Orion Scenix 10x50 Wide-Angle Binoculars. They came so fast. This is the first time I've had quality binoculars. I was really impressed. So far I have used them to see Jupiter and 4 of the moons. The view was great. It was so sharp. You are the best Orion!

I have owned these binoculars for over four years, and they have provided clear views of the night sky and superb enjoyment. Another pleasure for me and my wife is bird watching, and they excel for this purpose as my wife reaches for them first. The clarity, ease of focus, and handling comfort are exceptional for reasonably priced binoculars. Their BAK-4 porro prisms and multi-coated lens are a surprising plus at this price point. I've considered purchasing a second pair so that my wife will have her own.
