Astronomy stargazing binoculars suggestions?

Okay so I've been doing a little bit of research on what to get for my first pair of stargazing binoculars because I'm taking a astronomy course for school this year. The most popular pair on Amazon.com is 15x70. When I was researching it said for beginners anything above 10x was hard to use for beginners. I want a good pair of stargazing binoculars for a noob like me. My price budget is $100. It would be awesome if you guys could make some suggestions for me:)
Added (1). Oh yeah, here's the ones I'm looking at right now: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00008Y0VN/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

100D Canon vs D3300 Nikon?


Hi guys, well im a bit stuck, I have held both the cameras at the store and they felt quite similar, but the Canon felt a bit, a very small bit better. Next thing I want to consider is the kit lens, what kit lens is better? So I have done some research and this is what I found:

Nikon D3300 -- Canon 100D

Image quality: 82 -- 63 (also I want to mention my friend has some (good)lenses and a speedlite)
Weight: Similar, very similar
Speed: 5fps -- 4fps
Noise: 1385 -- 843
AF: 11 -- 9
Dynamic Range: 12.8 -- 11.3

AA Filter: No (better) -- Yes
HDR: No (manual) -- Yes
Weather: I dont care about this one
Movie: 60 fps -- 30 fps
Battery: Nikon

So, I have been to a shop, held both, did some research, I still can't pick, keep in mind that this is my first DSLR, but I have used one and know the ISO, Shutter Speed, Aperture stuff and want to experiment more. Keep in mind my friend has a lot of accessories for Canon but the initial Nikon specs look better, however it lacks HDR. So what one is better?

How to make a HDR in photoshop or other editing software?


My Dslr (Nikon D3300) doesn't take HDRs but I have heard that it if you pop the camera on a tripod and take 3 pictures of the same scent, one in lowest exposure, one in the middle and one at the highest exposure. Once you have the three photos what do you do?

Buying a new camera?


So I am in the market for a new DSLR camera and I'm really only looking at nikon or canon. The only type of experience I have is with the canon t5. I'm not too worried about learning how to use them as much as I am about a good quality camera. I feel like I'm more towards nikon and have been looking at the nikon d5500 or 5300. Would love multiple opinions my price range is going to be 600 ish maybe 700 with lens included. I can buy body only and just go with a very good lens also. Thanks!

What camera should I purchase within a price range of $1000?


Hi!,

I'm about to purchase my first DSLR. I already have an SLR (35mm), but now I wanna get digital.

My options are:
The Nikon D7200 (maybe the 7100) and
the Pentax K-3 II.

I'm just looking for a camera between these to, no Canon for me!

I'm struggling to decide, because Nikon is a good brand with a wide range of lenses available (even of second hand). But Pentax seems to offer more for the price (even with its lack of lenses).

So I don't know! I want this camera to last for at least 5-10 years (yeah, I know). And I'm planning to travel around Europe.

Any other suggestions are welcome! :)

Added (1). By the way, my SLR is Canon. So I can't (and I don't want) to use its kit lens…
