Binocular Brand Names

binocular brand names
Do binoculars work when viewing space? ?

I wanted to get a telescope, but people say that beginners should start with a set of good ($100-$150) binoculars. I want to know what the difference is between the telescope and binoculars! Is it worth buying the binoculars? If you have used binoculars to view space, or know someone who has. Tell me your opinion. Should I start out with the binoculars, or go for the telescope? If you have any brand names that are good for binoculars or a telescope (small enough to fit in my room) please include that! Thanks!
I don’t mean that I would want to buy a telesope for $100-150 US. I would pay A LOT more for a telescope! Sorry for confusion!

IMO and experience, cheap binoculars work just as well as expensive binoculars. The optics are good (unless they’re out of alignment when you buy them – in which case return them). Do not buy zoom binoculars. I have a perfectly good pair of 10×50 binoculars that i picked up for $25 at a sporting goods store brand new. However, i recommend getting 8x binoculars if you can. That’s because 8x is much easer to hold by hand than 10x, and so you don’t need a tripod. So why did i get 10×50′s? I have a great tripod. A good tripod might cost $100 on it’s own. Mine was $250 (and worth every cent). Treat your cheap binoculars like fragile glass artwork and they’ll last decades. Expensive binoculars may have close focus. Great for watching butterflies. Not very valuable for astronomy. While for astronomy, aperture rules, for hand held binoculars, maybe not so much. The ones i use the most are my 8×21′s. They’re so small, they fit in my pocket. So i have them. But i have a bigger scope if i want to see details. I use my 8×21′s to see stuff in high light pollution that i’d be able to see easily at a dark sky site. It’s navigation.

IMO, you don’t need binoculars first. Buy a scope. But the low bid is $180. You need something that is on a stable mount, has good optics (but most do), comes with usable eyepieces, fits in your car, sets up quickly, and did i mention is on a stable mount? Dob mounts can be had for $50. Other mounts cost $100 and up for a good one. IMO, equatorial mounts don’t cut it under $500 (i’d like to be wrong about this). Newtonian scopes are among the simplest. They work well on a Dob mount. So for $180, you get this:
