Do you live in a city or in the country? I usualy can get by with 7X magnification. Keep in mind that binoculars have limits as to what they let you see.

2800954230 e15ceb5376 m What is good to see in the night sky with binoculars? I've got some new binoculars today and I was looking at the Hyades and it was absolutely amazing! there were loads of stars! What do you guys like to see with binoculars? And if I look at Saturn could I see its moons?
Yes I saw the Pleiades too but I didn't think that was so spectacular
Yes, I tried to see the Orion nebula but I couldn't see anything. Only the stars no feint gas cloud or anything.
I do know where I am looking to find the Orion nebula thanks lol. Ye I think I live in quite a light polluted area and I dont think the binoculars are that strong too. Thanks for all ur answers =)
