I presently don,t own a pair of binox, but when I did I enjoyed tracking down galaxies. with a pair of 10x50's I could see; LMC, SMC, M31, M83, M104, NGC5128 and NGC253. I have also seen the helix (NGC7293), but have never seen thru binox despite trying M1, M57 and M33 and the veil neb (NGC6992).

My favorite object is a real cop out, The Milky Way.

While I'm here what are the inexpensive 'generic' brand binoculars like? you know the one's advertised by andrews and the like,

20x80T for $249, 20x80L for $199. Cheers
