Precision-engineered CG-5 mount
This new German equatorial mount has precision worm gears on both axes for extremely smooth tracking motion. The new heavy-duty tripod with larger and more substantial legs offer excellent damping characteristics for more stable views. In fact the CG-5 is the most stable mount in its class. The CG-5 also has a convenient latitude scale for easier alignment and an optional polar finder scope for the ultimate in precision alignments.
XLT coatings
Celestron’s XLT coating process uses state-of-the-art thin-film vacuum-deposition technology. To ensure consistent optical coatings of the highest quality the process is tightly monitored and controlled by highly trained technicians. Prior to coating each optical element is thoroughly cleaned and inspected to ensure proper adhesion of the films during the coating process. Materials used in our reflective and anti-reflective coatings including aluminum hafnium oxide titanium dioxide silicon dioxide and magnesium fluoride are the purest available exceeding 99.99 percent. The result is image-clarity so stunning it must be seen to be believed.
As mentioned in our guide to choosing a binocular, more powerful binoculars suffer from unstable images when used without a tripod. Even a slight shake of the hands will shake the image in the binocular, and with higher-magnification binoculars, the image shake becomes truly intolerable.
Canon’s Image Stabilizer very effectively minimizes image shake at high magnifications. The amount of shake is actually calculated by a microcomputer, and the shake is optimally counteracted so that the image always looks steady to the eye.
The Canon 18×50 IS Image Stabilized Binoculars is also an “ALL WEATHER” Binoculars, and is at the top of the class in our opinion.
Nikon’s 14×40 StabilEyes is the world’s first dual mode, digitally stabilized marine binocular. This 14 power binocular is optimized for use on boats, in moving vehicles, or in aircraft. Onboard and land use settings allow the versatility needed for diverse applications. Center focusing and compact (7.3″ long x 5.8″ wide), the Nikon StabilEyes is easy to use and fits into a daypack or carry-on bag. Dual mode professional grade marine binoculars that are stabilized on land and on board! With power, razor sharp resolution, and a steady hold necessary for long viewing. Phase correction coated prisms, fully muticoated lenses that provide clear, crisp images. Waterproof/fogproof construction and Nikon’s exclusive Pan and Tilt feature that provide unmatched flexibilty. One year limited warranty.

Here are links to the scopes the video author recommended:
Night Storm 2 is a waterproof night vision scope designed for Law Enforcement and commercial safety applications.
Affordable Generation 2 performance in robust exterior shell makes Night Storm equally ideal for Homeland security and outdoor applications.
Once you enter a completely dark where no ambient light is to be found, you can take advantage of our built-in Total Darkness Technology which our infrared illuminator will provide.
The ATN NVG7-2 is ruggedly constructed out of metal, yet is compact and light weight, metal. The NVG7-2 is a single tube night vision goggle built around High Grade 18 mm Gen 2+ image intensifier tube and utilizes a bi-ocular (not binocular). It has an built-in IR light source, which enables close-up use in complete darkness. It is available with a wide range of image intensifier options to meet a wide array of specialized specification requirements.
The NVG-7 is an exceptional choice for hands free usage, and we have recommended it for a really ‘bizarre’ application (depends on your perspective ) - night-time paintball wargames! Those guys report that it suits their needs perfectly - even when there is very little moonlight.
From a price vs utility standpoint, we can give this ATN NVG7 Generation 2+ Night Vision Goggles our highest recommendation. We also recommend theNightVisionStore.com as the retailer of choice. If you really want (be sure that your really need it) an even higher grade night vision instrument, then theNightVisionStore.com will have it.
