He took the binoculars, rested them on a small clock near my sink, adding one of my artist's paint brushes, to prop them up the way he wanted, and took this photo with his IPhone THRU the binoculars! A small river with many birds and deer runs against my property, and a friend was watching a heron on 5/3/17. I ordered these, and have been very impressed.

I had read many reviews of Binoculars, and had tried one other type from Amazon that wasn't a good fit for me. I got mine under $200 which I think is an amazing value. Glass in the Trailseeker are bright and sharp edge to edge with minimal chromatic aberration.
I never knew the binoculars would be used to take distant pictures through, but you can see it's possible! FOV is superior to any I have tried.
I love these binoculars as I think they are the right size and perfect for general spotting. There is little to fault; If I am nit picking, I think the focus wheel is a little too loose for my taste. The heron was about 80 yards away.
I own the Vortex Diamondback HD 12x50 as well as a GPO Passion 10x42ED and can safely say the Celestron Trailseeker 8x42 performs as well optically, give and take, with some advantages even. The second pic is of his 'set up' . I realize the difference in magnification makes them difficult to compare.
Frame is magnesium similar to the other midtierers and even the eye piece is made from metal.
