Vixen Optics' BT126SS-A 126mm f/5 Telescope Binoculars feature
achromatic glass lenses and two 1.25" eyepiece holders that allow the
observer to equip the optic with a wide range of astronomy eyepieces and
enjoy a unique celestial or terrestrial observing experience. The
achromatic lenses combined with anti-reflection fully multicoated optics
maximize light transmission while virtually eliminating chromatic and
spherical aberration. Views through the telescope are bright and clear
with true color rendition, and objects can be brought into sharp focus
without comas or halos.
The binoculars' design with eyepieces set
at a 45° angle makes long observation sessions comfortable. Viewing with
both eyes open eliminates the fatigue normally associated with holding
one eye closed, as with traditional telescopes; and the angled oculars
are more comfortable, especially when the scope is aimed at or near the
zenith. With both eyes open, true stereoscopic vision is maintained
providing a rich depth of field rarely experienced during astronomy
sessions. The dual optical tubes also enable the use of
astrophotography/astroimaging equipment on one ocular while providing a
perfectly-aligned guide scope. Views through the binoculars are
corrected horizontally and vertically to enable their use as a powerful
terrestrial observation platform as well. Each eyepiece is individually
focused, providing superior clarity versus binoculars with center-focus
systems.
