The Celestrons since the second pair do not even mention AR coatings. However be warned that high power binos such as these will need mounting and a good bino mount will dwarf the cost of the binos. I would suggest you are better off with a lower power pair - 7x50s and to a lesser extent 8x42s and 10x50s are widely recommended for astro use with good reason.
