Orion Resolux 15x70

These are the well regarded BA8 series binoculars made by United Optics. They are waterproof and nitrogen purged, and used by the military for their tough construction and very high collimation standard.

They are a real pleasure to use, with a bright 4.4 degree FOV and 18mm of eye relief. The optics are in great condition with hardly even a sign of dust. I have observed thousands of objects with these, including all the Messiers visible from Australia.

Comes with a pair of Orion glass solar filters for great sun spot observing.

Includes a padded case for the Paragon Plus Mount and hard case for the binoculars. I will also include a pan head to use on the tripod as a heavy duty camera mount.

I have been asked about splitting this package up, which I am happy to do as long as I can find buyers for both parts so I don't end up with one part that I am unable to use.

1) The binoculars in hard case, plus the Orion glass solar filters. $390

2) The Paragon Plus Mount, plus the padded case and pan head. $290 Sold

I will further separate the remaining items to make the binoculars more affordable to those who are not interested in the solar filters.

1) The binoculars in hard case. $300

2) Orion glass solar filters to suit binoculars or telescope with tube diameter around 85mm. $40 each Sold
