Which binoculars for stargazing?
Discussion
I have a small 60mm cheapo telescope that has terrible optics. I would like to upgrade to something larger, but have been informed that a pair of binoculars are very handy (and cheaper than a new scope, for now).
So, does anyone have any recommendations on which binoculars to buy for night sky viewing (I'll be upgrading the telescope at a later date)? Also, what do I need to look out for (i.e. size of the lens, length, optics coolour etc)?
I guess i'll need a tripod too to help steady them.
Thanks.![smile](/inc/images/smile.gif)
