  Just what you need… "Can be mounted on a tripod for steady, hands-free viewing."

    I dare you to try holding it steady enough by hand to see anything without thinking you have Parkinsons.

  70mm does seem huge, but in reality it is no better (well it is slightly less than) 40mm in an 8x magnification bino for light gathering. It looks an awesome deal though and should suit those with a tripod well. I tried to vote for this - it seems unresponsive :(

  The real deal is the Echelon.

    They also had some crazy deals on Dobsonians. Quality ones.

    This will not be as good in low light as the 15x 70mm binoculars

  Is this good for concerts? Or overkill?

    Not suitable. Not really meant to be used hand held for long periods, mainly used on a tripod for astro or bird watching.

        some of the smaller nikons would be good.

  This is not light gathering. For good dusk and dawn light gathering you need to divide the objective lens, 70, by the magnification, 15, and get an answer of 7 or more. In this case you don't, you get 4.66'. If you need/want light gathering I recommend 7 x 50 Pentax or Nikon.

      I have exact that one (Skywatcher 8" dobsonian) at my parent's house (overseas) which I got in 2016 from Amazon US. It is good but not that suitable for astro photography, unless mounted on a EQ mount with tracking.

      Now I am after a Skywatcher Adventure GTI mount to try with my DSLR. But couldn't still find a good deal.

  Would I see Saturn's rings & Jupier's Galilean moons with this on a tripod?
