The Skymaster DX 8x56 is quite special. Our binocular technician loves how wonderfully flat the field of view appears. With most binoculars, stars appear pin-point in the centre of the field only. With this unit, however, stars maintain their pin-point like appearance over a larger degree of the field, making it an excellent astronomical binocular.
This model is formerly known as the Ultima DX.
