Wow...what a sight... Found it relatively easily, from the parking lot at work (with security lighting), the parking lot down at the Stop'N'Rob (with oodles of...
... Very nice in my Celestron Nova 10x50's. Bigger than what I expected. Like a big "fuzz ball". Probably visible naked eye for those with half way decent...
I've really been enjoying this comet. In the evening in the NE usually viewing with Nikon 10x42 SE binoculars or 76mm APO. And then 8 hours later at 6am naked...
I recently migrated to Florida for the winter and treated myself to an evening at Mohogany Hammock (about 75 miles round trip) in the everglades with a...
Actually, I've been viewing comets for years with both big scopes and binoculars. Holmes is the first comet I've encountered where I feel I can get more...
Hi Pete and astrolovers, I agree that a scope is better for viewing Comet Holmes. I loved the views in my friend's 12in Dobsonian. I can also see the nucleus...
I agree Pete. Since it first flared up, I have been watching this comet with my Celestron 25x100s and it wasn't untl Saturday night that I had my first chance...
Hi Folks, Yes binoculars and telescope are both great. I don't think anyone has mentioned the LOCATION of Comet 17P/Holmes. On October 30, I had a great view...
Hi Wayne, There is nothing better than a pair of binos when you are tired at the end of the day or the nighttime temps just really get cold. I have also had...
Early Sunday morning a couple of transient naked-eye "nebulae" or "comets" are expected to be observable, weather permitting, from all of the western...
... The launch occurred at 8:50 PM EST (1:50 UTC). The final orbital adjustment burn will occur at 3:01 AM EST (8:01 UTC). Several minutes later, after...
... There are some very nice images on the spaceweather.com website! My fellow observer and I got to see some of it between fast-moving low clouds from the...
Hi, I got a generic 25x100 Individual Focus binocular made in china. It was written "Fully Coated Optics". There was no screws to adjust collimation but it was...
Things have changed. As Holmes continues to grow and lose the fine detail in the coma, the binocular is now superior to the telescope for viewing. Several...
... I took my 25x150s to the DSRSG last week. I shared the view of Holmes with a new friend, and he showed me the comet in his 25" dob. Both views were...
Hi this is Bill.I do this for a living and i can tell you that binos this size alot of times just have an objective tube that is slanted.I mean some one...
... What do you mean by "make sure both tubes are screwed down flush with the housings,you dont see a gap no matter how small"?? What "screwed down flush"?...
I have had a pair of Fuji 16x70's for some time and recently got a Unimount that has really been a great purchase for comfortable viewing. Getting the...
Yes, I now prefer to view it in binos or a small 80mm or less telescope. In my SV66, with a 24mm eyepiece, it still looked very nice with two stars in the...
$69 and free shipping? (gonna need a tripod) How can you go wrong? (only a center focus) Well, you can try them, and if you don't like them, your kids will...
Is there some reason (eg.,reviews, repeated annecdotal evidence, etc.) that it would be expected that these binos will "not work", or that the company's...
I need, and have on all my binos, individual eye focus, as, unless your eyes are both the same, I'm nearsighted, each eye needs adjusting. Proof is my TV...
I recently had a decent experience with Zhummel regarding problems with two pairs of 25x100 binoculars I bought through B&H Photo. After two out-of-collimation...
Hi Dave, I had a pair of Nikon 18x70 for a couple of years. Just recently sold them because they were not getting use after I acquired a 80mm pair with angled...
Seems like a good deal: Zhumell- Case = $31.96 (free shipping) <http://m4.binoculars.com/binocular-accessories/cases/20x80supergiantmetalcase.cfm> 20x80 =...
You've got to be kidding! I think I may have seen a comet? What I saw looked like a galaxy through my Zeiss 7x42 Victory FL (Hand Held) Actually, I couldn't...
