What is the disadvantage of no focus binoculars?
I wanna buy a 10×50 celestron up-close but is no more available. What about a 10×50 celestron with no focus…is that a good deal.
No. If these are for astronomy, you do _not_ want "no focus" or fixed focus binoculars. These are permanently focused on the middle distance, which means that the stars will be forever out of focus. This is just a really cheap way of making binoculars by eliminating the focusing mechanism.

I would always recommend getting optical devices that allow you to adjust the focus. However, their no focus line allows you to theoretically use them without having to worry about focus. It’s basically locked in a fixed position.
If you’re using these binoculars for stargazing, then I’d definitely get a pair with adjustable focus. But if you’re only using them for casual use, you should be alright. Then again, if you’re using them for stargazing, I’d recommend getting a telescope instead.
I own a few Celestron telescopes and have always enjoyed their products. It may not be the Hubble, but it’s great for casual stargazing.
