Compact Nikon binoculars are the handiest and most versatile of all optical instruments I have used. Most people, who think about buying a telescope, either go to a local department store or toy store and buy any telescope they have for sale.
Kids use binoculars as toys and as learning devices. Even though they are pre-moistened, they do not leave any trace of residue-causing streaks on the expensive lenses. For astronomy use you will need at least 40mm aperture and preferably larger.
Compact binoculars come in a wide variety of models and are suitable for various sports and entertainment purposes such as nature viewing, hiking, bird watching, bushwalking, and outdoor sports. They suck dirt off the lens surfaces leaving them crystal clear. Do keep in mind that a larger objective diameter will generally increase the size and weight of the binoculars.
The hard rubber exterior is extremely durable and offers a good grip, and the adjustable locking eye cups are another cool feature. When I finally got my first pair of binoculars just a couple of weeks ago, it was like Christmas again. The coating cuts down on reflected and fragmented light inside your binoculars, and so increases, the brightness and clarity of the image.
Your willingness to increase your budget will often provide you with a return in performance of your purchase. But if you're into astronomy, you'll need a high powered pair.
