what can u see with 10x50 binocular in astronomy, or is a 80/400 scope better for astronomy?
i saw the moon with a friends 80/400 scope and was absolutely mesmerized. now i'm thinking of buying one for myself. i am on a low budget, want to use it to view the moon, planets and for terrestrial viewing. i want to go in for a refractor travelling type go scope. but when i researched over the internet, mostly everyone suggests to buy a 10x50 binocular. now as per my layman knowledge this binocular would not only have a magnification of just 10x but also the light gathering would be through two 50mm dia lens (i hope it's called a lens), whereas the 80/400 scope has a minimum useful magnification of 16x (with 25mm eyepiece) and 44x (with 9mm eyepiece) and would gather light with 400mm dia lens. I am highly confused. am from mumbai, india and the price for both of the above is the same, binocular being nikon made.
for comparison could anybody also tell me what would be the difference in the detail of the moon as seen from both of the above
A 10x50 binocular and an 80mm f/5 telescope are two totally different instruments with totally different functions. The 10x50 binoculars are a low power wide field instrument for studying large swaths of sky: the Milky Way and large objects like the Pleiades and the Andromeda Galaxy. An 80mm telescope is for focusing in on smaller objects, like the Moon and planets. If I had to choose just one, it would probably be the 80mm telescope, though I'd probably choose one with a longer focal length, as 400mm focal length is rather restrictive.
