Skymaster Pro 15×70
Celestron Skymaster Pro 15×70 full review. <em>These are excellent for viewing larger deep-sky objects and they are nitrogen-filled to prevent internal misting but they are difficult to hold steady and the rubber eyecaps can come loose. They feature in our best binoculars guide as the best for moon views.

Alpha 7R V
Sony Alpha 7R V full review. AI-powered autofocus and a versatile LCD screen but produces noise on high ISO images and burst speed is capped at 10FPS.

Alpha 7 III
Sony Alpha 7 III full review. Brilliant autofocus and weather sealing for tough conditions but can feel unbalanced with heavy lenses and has a complicated menu system.
