Sunagor 30-160x70 BCF Mega Zoom Binoculars with Case

Product Information

Watch out for the 10x21 version of the Pentax UD, as they are not fully multi-coated, have less eye relief, and have an even smaller exit pupil at 2.1 mm compared to 2.3mm here. These 9x21 binoculars are a much better buy. Multi-coated lenses combine with BaK-4 prisms to allow for increased light transmission and therefore high contrast images with bags of detail. Stargazers will also benefit from the fact that this option can be tripod mounted, while it also has its own center support rod for increased stability. A compact pair of binoculars normally means a modest magnification married to an equally modest objective lens size, yet here we get a practical and efficient 8x magnification wedded to a relatively generous 32mm. The compact size also makes this option suited to watching sports, going hiking, traveling, and other common pursuits. Naturally, we get fully multi-coated optics with Bak-4 prisms to improve light transmission, plus a degree of waterproofing; and all at an affordable price for those of us seeking a compact pair for everyday use. A large, ridged central focus knob and dioptric adjustment aid ease of use and rapidity of focusing. Binoculars: what we look for

BCF Mega Zoom Binoculars with Case Sunagor 30-160x70 BCF Mega Zoom Binoculars with Case

The Nikon Prostaff P3 binoculars are entry-level and we were really impressed when reviewing them. Nikon has saved on manufacturing costs where it counts, mainly in the accessories that these binoculars ship with, but has retained the high-quality optics that I expect to see in a Nikon product. The Nikon Action EX 12x50 is a great value combination of high power and light-gathering. If you really want to get closer to objects then look for binoculars with 16x magnification – and prepare to always use a tripod – but we think 12x is a worthy upgrade from 10x binoculars without hugely adding to the weight. The other key thing to look out for is the field of view. You’ll usually see this specified in degrees and/or as the horizontal or vertical distance you can see through the eyepiece at a distance of 1000m. Lower magnification monoculars will usually have a wider field of view, and will also give you a steadier view, as the higher the magnification, the more noticeable any shake or movement is going to be. What else should you look out for? Compared to other models on this list, the Celestron UpClose G2 doesn't have the most advanced specs. It has partially multi-coated lenses (not fully coated) and BK-7 glass roof prisms (instead of the preferred BaK-4 glass). However, they are reasonably priced and include a limited lifetime guarantee for added peace of mind. This battery-operated option enables you to get wobble-free images of far-reaching views by just pressing a button on the binoculars – and the stabilizing effect is both instant and jaw-dropping.You should consider the type of lens coating that is used. Lenses will be described as coated, multi-coated, or fully multi-coated. The best will be fully multi-coated with phase coating on the prisms. The best will also be nitrogen filled to eliminate the risk of internal fogging. Some compacts are waterproof or water-resistant, which is always a good idea for use in all weather and gives the user extra peace of mind. Which brand of binoculars are best?

You can use binoculars in low light conditions, but can't binoculars in total darkness. Although this model is undeniably versatile, it does come with a set of compromises. For a start, each tube has to be focused independently, which soon becomes tedious. Even though they only give a 4x magnification in binocular mode, they have a wide field of view. Are they the sharpest? No. Do they have no color fringing? No. But are they one of the best binoculars you can buy for the price? Wholeheartedly, yes I think so. Just big enough to zoom in on far-away subjects without becoming cumbersome, the DX 12x56 is the model of the line-up to get.
