Frequently Asked Questions
What types of objects are these good for? Are they good for viewing the Moon?
With a massive 36° true field of view, the Orion 2x54mm Ultra Wide Angle Binoculars are best suited for large targets. Constellations and large, bright nebulae are ideal selections. Due to the big FOV, these are not as well suited for a target like the Moon.
How much brighter will these binoculars make the night sky?
The Orion 2x54mm Ultra Wide Angle Binoculars are designed to provide a 4x brighter view than what is visible with your naked eye.
What types of filters can I use with these binoculars?
The included adapters accommodate most 2” filters on the market today. While the Orion 2x54mm Ultra Wide Angle Binoculars do provide a big boost in brightness, gentler contrast and nebula filters should be used, or a skyglow style filter.
