Everything You Need To Know About Binoculars

[@UpInSmoke909]

Best, quickest and most useful video on binoculars I’ve seen. Thanks for the great info.

[@mehedi.ferdous]

Thanks sir *Summary: 10x42 10 = 10x optical zoom 42 = 42mm Objective lenses diameter 2nd/1st number (42/10) = exit pupil (lerge number means more light) in nomal light, value 6 is perfect. But if you want to explore night sky you can go as high as possible/you want.* It was just what I need to know

@@GOHUNT Technically, zoom means something else in the world of optics. The number 10 means 'ten times magnification'. Zoom means you can have intermediate magnifications, usually by twisting a belt around the eyepiece or by turning the eyepiece from click detents to other detents. Click, click, click....5 times power, ten times, then 15 times, as general examples. So, the first number means 'power' or magnifying power (ten times) and zoom means you dial up or down how much magnification, or power, you want. Generally, as a tip, zoom binoculars are going to be of poor quality. Good binoculars, not great or prime ones, will have one power only, and cost at least $150, but the better ones run around $300-500. The very best, by Leica and Swarovski, Maven, APM, Nikon, and Fujinon, as examples, cost two to five times that much.

Help me out brotheer I'm i'm trying to buy some monoculars at Amazon so I could look at the stars and move which one do you think I should go 4 also I noticed that they have a few over a $1000 On a price tag and those got hundreds of magnification which numbers should I look at and go for when buying a monocular under a $100 which 1 is the best

[@toml.8210]

"Eye Relief" is the "sweet spot" distance for your eye from the ocular lens. It's important for astronomers. The diopter is for people that have eyes that are a little different. You look through the right side, then adjust the left diopter to match, so you don't get a headache. 15x or more magnification is good for gun scopes, and 8x is better for watching baseball, races, golf, etc.

[@regbampot]

Thanks Tom. That puts it into perspective

[@sam.merritt]

Diopter is just another measurement scale for magnification. Just like Fahrenheit and Celsius measure the same thing, just using different scales. The diopter adjustment on a pair of binoculars is only on one eye because the magnifying mechanism itself brings the picture into focus for the other eye. The diopter adjustment just makes it where the two eyes have the same focal length. In other words it just accounts for differences in diopter between your two eyes

[@aydencassar4607]

Ok. So I have what is knows as amblyopia (lazy eye). What do I need to know for this when it comes to choosing binoculars that will be best suited to this condition?

[@frosty3693]

A good effort. For eyeglass wearers with compact binocs, 8x20 10x25, check the eye relief. some are too short to work with glasses. Most larger binocs do not have that problem. Also the power does not just effect the field of view but the apparent steadiness of the image you are looking at. A 7 power image looks much steadier than a 10 power, the size and weight of the binocular may help. The exit pupil for good nigh/low light vison is 7mm. (The standard for night binocs was the 7x50.) The older you get the smaller your eye's pupil will open. This may be more for rifle scopes, but the larger the exit pupil the easier it is to see though the optic as the larger exit pupil will give you a little more "wiggle room" for eye alignment. That dark cresent you see when trying to look though the optic is the missalignment of you eye with the exit pupil. Optics have gotten really good and the "bang for the buck" is orders of magnitude better than decades ago. If you plan on needing binoculars, go with the best you can get as they will serve you well, perhaps for a lifetime, and will reduce eye strain and make using them for long periods of time much easier. The joy of quality remains long after the sting of the price is forgotten. No I do not sell optics, I just dislike trying to use cheap crap that is not worth the effort.

[@daveyboy6985]

My favourite magnification is 8x just for general use. Even 7x are great.

[@frosty3693]

@@daveyboy6985 Right, anything over 8X can be hard to hold still.

Hi, thanks for your great info. I’m going to a cruise this month to Alaska. Which binoculars you could suggest for me to buy? Thank you 🙏🏼

[@GOHUNT]

Marco, Thanks for the question! We definitely want to make sure you get the pair that suits your needs and fits within your budget so we'd suggest calling in to our optics manager Cody Nelson to get a quick rundown on your options and the features that they encompass. Cody Nelson: Phone - (702)847 -8747 Email - [e-mail] At an entry level price tag (around $250) we'd suggest the Vortex Diamondback HD 10x42 or the Leupold BX-2 Alpine 10x42. As you jump to higher price points however, you're going to get a crisper / clearer glass, so we definitely suggest getting in contact with Cody to weigh out the options! Hope we were able to help, don't hesitate to reach out with any additional questions! Have a great trip!

[@gotubo]

@@GOHUNT , thank you so much for this tip. Nothing compare to search who really hold the knowledge. I really appreciate. Yes, I’m very excited for this trip with my wife . I’m a truck driver, now only locally in Los. Angeles area. No more 48 OTR. Alaska Will be my 50° th state to visit..

Hi Cody, I enjoyed your video. I am trying to figure out how to get binoculars or whatever optical equipment made to get maximum focus at short ranges, five to fifty feet away.

Any recommendations for binoculars for farm watch purposes? Half mile view to 3/4 mile clear view?

[@GOHUNT]

Great Question, thanks for reaching out! We relayed the question to our Optics Manager Cody Nelson and this was his response... I would use either a Vortex Diamondback HD 10x42 or 12x50. Or upgrade to the Vortex Viper HD 10x42 or 12x50. I like the 10x's for the brighter image, wider FOV, and being easier to hand hold. But if a little extra magnification is needed the 12x is an excellent all-around performer that would only be a little less stable when hand-held but the image would be larger to bring in more detail. Either one would work well for this task. More than 12x would require a tripod or window mount for more stable viewing. If you have other suggestions please feel free to reach out to [e-mail]
