Q1: I thought roof prism binoculars were considered of lower quality than porro prism binoculars. If that is true, why they are used in such an expensive model?

A: Hello Dimitris, Thank you for your email. It is USUALLY the case that porro prisms are brighter than roof prisms. But it depends primarily on the coatings, prism (BAK 4 Vs BAK 7), objective size/magnification. A 10x50 binocular is a large/full size binocular so it will be able to acquire the light needed to compensate for a 10x magnification. These binoculars are excellent due to their full multi coated optics, phase coatings, nitrogen purged & rubber armored Chassis. To characterize a binocular of being low quality just because it is a roof prism - would not be accurate. Best Regards, DJ

Noble beauty!

A thing of beauty for viewing the beauties of nature! The magnificent Noble Series from Celestron is one of today's best values in premium-quality, roof-prism binoculars. When you hold a Noble and view through its lenses, you'll be immediately impressed by its solid compact design, its smooth, precision focus adjustments, and the clarity and fidelity of its fully multi-coated and phase-coated optics. In short, the Noble takes the viewing experience to a breathtaking, new level of enjoyment. The 10x50 is rubber-covered and fully waterproof. It features close focus of 9 feet.

"Celestron is a name synonymous with amateur astronomy and has long been a major force in that market. Based on the performance of the Nobles they sent for testing, they are very serious about the birding market. Both models were an absolute joy to pick up and use - I had to fight with my testers to return them. Each model easily made our Favorites List and Best Buy List."
