Celestron Nature DX 12x50 Roof Binoculars
The Celestron Nature DX 12x50 binoculars are waterproof roof prism binoculars for birdwatchers, walkers and sports fans who want distant subjects pulled in close without a dim, grainy view. Twelve times magnification brings the far side of an estuary or a stadium within reach, while 50mm objective lenses gather plenty of light. Phase-coated BaK-4 prisms, fully multi-coated optics and a rubber armoured body make this a dependable all-rounder for trail, terrace and garden.
Why These 12x50 Binoculars Stay Bright
Push magnification up on a cheap pair and the picture usually turns murky, soft at the edges and washed out in colour. Budget optics often skip coatings on some glass surfaces, so light bounces away before it reaches your eye. Celestron coats every air-to-glass surface with multiple anti-reflection layers and pairs them with BaK-4 prisms carrying phase coatings, so more light travels through the optical path. The polycarbonate housing is rubber armoured against knocks, sealed against water and filled with dry nitrogen, which stops the lenses fogging internally on damp mornings.
Field Strengths of the Nature DX 12x50
- 12x magnification: Close-up detail on distant birds, deer, boats and players, ideal when you cannot get any nearer to the action.
- 8.2 foot close focus: Despite the higher power, nearby butterflies, flowers and garden birds still snap into sharp focus just a few steps away.
- Twist-up eyecups: Multiple click stops and generous eye relief let glasses wearers and non-wearers find a comfortable viewing position quickly.
- Tripod adaptable: Accepts an optional tripod adapter, sold separately, for long watching sessions or digiscoping through the eyepiece with a camera.
