Presenting the Explore Scientific 33x120mm BT-120 SF Large Binoculars with 62 Degree LER Eyepieces. These are oversized binoculars designed for celestial and terrestrial observations.
They provide a spectacular view of the night sky, revealing celestial objects like star clusters, nebulae, the moon, and planets in breathtaking detail.
During daylight hours, they also offer the capability to observe distant natural and man-made landscapes, including ships and airplanes.
The BT series binoculars are known for their versatile performance, made possible by their large, light-gathering lenses and professional lens coatings that deliver brilliant and vivid images even in low light conditions.
These oversized binoculars, with a 120mm objective diameter and 560mm focal length, provide a powerful 33x magnification, making them ideal for celestial and terrestrial observations.

The binoculars come with two Explore Scientific 62-degree 20mm Long Eye Relief (LER) eyepieces, renowned for their quality in the astronomy community.
These eyepieces offer a comfortable 15mm eye relief and soft silicone eyecups for relaxed and immersive viewing.

Customize your viewing experience by selecting from a range of compatible eyepieces to adjust magnification and field of view to your preferences.
Improve contrast and visibility by attaching color and nebula filters directly to the eyepiece sleeves. These filters should be used in pairs for best results.
The binoculars offer a comfortable 45-degree viewing angle and helical individual focusing for effortless and precise adjustment.
The interpupillary distance can be adjusted between 54mm to 76mm to suit individual preferences.
A metal carrying handle at the center of gravity simplifies transportation and provides a secure grip during tripod setup.
