Hi and welcome to SGL.

I don't have any experience of digital binoculars, but with normal binoculars I think 32mm is a bit small for astro, especially with 12x magnification. Responses from those who have used digital bins may be different.

What’s the benefit of digital? Handheld upto 7-8x is best, harder to keep still with higher powers. The exit pupil (objective diameter / magnification) is quite small on this, for 12x you’d normally b lenwanting >60mm for Astro.

for birding I use a wide angle 8x30, which gives great immersive views. For taking videonor pictures of things a way off you can’t do far wrong with a “bridge” camera, eg Nikon p900 which have crazy zooms on and with image stabilisation take some pretty good images.
