Building on the success of Celestron’s popular Regal ED spotting scopes, these binoculars combine ED objective lenses with flat field technology to provide exceptional image clarity across the entire field of view. Designed especially for birdwatchers and outdoor enthusiasts, the Regal ED features a wide field of view that makes it easier to locate and follow fast-moving subjects. The 4.9-foot close-focus distance also allows you to observe nearby birds, butterflies, plants, and other wildlife in remarkable detail. With their advanced optics and versatile performance, these binoculars are an excellent choice for birdwatching, nature observation, and a wide range of outdoor activities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eED Glass Objective Lenses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExtra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass virtually eliminates chromatic aberration, also known as color fringing, a distracting visual effect produced when different wavelengths of light disperse while transiting optical lenses. By reducing dispersion, the Regal ED binoculars provide images with outstanding, true-to-life color. But not all ED binoculars are created equal. Celestron’s high quality ED glass objective lenses deliver visibly brighter, sharper images compared to non-ED binoculars. The difference is especially apparent in low light conditions, such as at dawn or dusk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1935\/4371\/files\/StandardvsEDGlass_Comparison_1200x450_17f4e381-18ae-4440-8006-1b2c2b8f172c_grande.jpg?v=1546632002\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlat Field Technology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to using ED glass, the Regal features flat field optical technology that counter-balances the normal visual field curvature convex lenses naturally show, delivering an expansive linear image all the way to the edges of the field of view.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoatings and Prisms\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRegal ED features fully multi-coated optics. A binocular can be considered “fully multi-coated” when all air-to-glass surfaces are coated with multiple layers of anti-reflectivity coatings so that the maximum amount of light passes through the glass to the eye. The prisms inside Regal ED are made of high quality BaK-4 glass with phase coatings applied so that more light is reflected off their internal faces and passes through to the eye. Taken together, the fully multi-coated lenses and BaK-4 prisms maximize light transmission for the remarkably bright, highly detailed images. The ED objective lenses further enhance these features, especially in low light conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Body\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe well-balanced, ergonomic industrial design magnesium alloy body protects your Regal ED binoculars from damage without weighing you down.
