Product Information

Eye Relief is the distance the eyepiece of a binocular can be held away from the eye and still present the full field of view. This is important because longer eye relief reduces eye strain and makes it easier for people who wear glasses. The longer eye relief would provide a full field of view for someone who wears eyeglasses. A rule of thumb is, if you wear glasses, you'll need at least 15mm of eye relief. Essentially, the Hooway marine binoculars do the exact same thing as the aforementioned Bushnell binoculars. Like the Bushnell unit, these Hooway binoculars have a magnification power of 7x, an internal analog compass, and a range finding reticle to determine the distance of an object. These binoculars also include a compass, which is illuminated for easy reading in all light conditions. If the battery runs out, you can still read heading under the right lighting conditions. Additionally, these Celestron binoculars include a range finding reticle for estimating distance. Relative Brightness is the exit pupil squared. The relative brightness has no relation to how bright a pair of binoculars will be. The quality of the optics has more to do with the brightness of the binoculars than exit pupil size.

This bright, sharp, and reliable model from the Olympus Pro lineup (a new 8x42 version is also available) feature nano coating for the first time in the range. Olympus is renowned for its optical expertise, so it’s no surprise that we get the same high-performance Zuiko optics that it deploys with its camera systems. Indeed, the claim here is these binoculars' optics offer unprecedented light transmittance for their class. Not compatible with #93648 Off-Axis Guider, not compatible with #93519 2" Mirror Diagonal (discontinued) Diopter is the adjustment that allows you to match your individual eye strength. This allows a sharp image in both barrels of the binoculars if you have eyes with differing clarity of vision. Note, only one side (or barrel) of the binocular has a diopter adjustment. To adjust your diopter, use the following instructions:

Focusing: Ease of focusing is an important factor to consider when choosing a pair of binoculars. When evaluating focusing, most binoculars use a central focusing knob that you turn while looking through the optic. Getting the sharpest focus possible may require very fine adjustment. This can be done in several ways. You can increase the number of revolutions that it takes to focus, making the adjustment finer. This slows down the focusing process. Extra time needed to focus can mean the difference between getting a good view of a moving object or not. Magnification is how large the image will be through the binoculars vs. your naked eye. In the example of 8x42, an image would be eight times larger than what you would normally see. Magnification also impacts the depth of field, your field of view, and the overall brightness of the image. Magnification also magnifies movement. The higher the power, the harder it is to hold steady. Above 10x, you will probably need a tripod system. We discuss the depth of field and field of view in more detail below.

There are several key differences between 12×50 and 20×50 binoculars. The 20×50 binoculars offer significantly more magnification than the 12×50 binoculars. This means that objects will appear much closer and clearer through the 20×50 binoculars. The lenses are multicoated, which increases brightness when necessary and reduces visual distortion. Bushnell's BaK-4 Porro prisms also contribute to even brightness and crisp picture reproduction, which means you won't lose detail no matter how far you zoom in. And with a 350-foot field of view at 1,000 yards, that extra detail comes in handy. Key Features: As previously mentioned, the larger objective lens size on the 10x50 binoculars allows for them to offer brighter images. Even in low-light conditions you can expect these binoculars to perform exceptionally well. However, this does not necessarily mean that they offer the highest possible quality. This is largely dependent on the model of binoculars and the glass that they use. The other terms you might hear connected with binoculars and see on specifications sheets are Porro prism, roof prism and ED glass. This guide aims to explore both binoculars and decide which is the best option for you. Both sizes of binoculars will certainly deliver fantastic results - though they may be more suited to different activities. Size and WeightThe 10x42 binoculars are certainly the most cost-effective option and provide a more convenient build design. When using these binoculars in a good light conditions, they will match the quality output of the 10x50 binoculars. Whilst there may be some colour fringing, this really is not noticeable - especially in bright environments. These binoculars are perfectly suitable for birdwatching and general observations. If you are looking for a pair of binoculars for general use, then the 10x42 binoculars are a great choice. Here's a surprisingly high-quality pair of budget binoculars that work well for sailing. The Changcun20x50 binoculars are styled off of traditional full-size naval binoculars, and they're completely waterproof. Plus, 20x magnification gives the user an impressive sighting range. Waterproofing: You’re going to be using your binoculars outside so it’s best to be sure that they won’t let in water if you’re caught in a rain shower. They’ll fog up and condensation will form on the inner surfaces if this happens. Both binoculars can be used for whale watching from the balcony. The main question is how far away the whales are. If you can see them already without binoculars, i.e. clearly see there are whales out there, and you only need an enhanced view then the Avalon 10×42 will work fine. It has the advantage that you can use these binoculars for other occasions too. But if the whales are often very far away, i.e. over 2 miles out at sea, then the Celestron 20×50 will work much better. Note that they are harder to use due to the stronger magnification but once you are looking at the whale you will defiantly see it in more detail. If your main use for the binoculars is indeed to look at whales and very distant subjects (boats, ships etc.) then the Celestron 20×50 is the right choice. Unlike all of the other binoculars on our list, the GlassowlIR binoculars allow you to see clear and crisp images in complete darkness. That includes the kind of darkness you find on the open ocean on a cloudy night. And while these binoculars don't eliminate the need for a searchlight, they can help you see clearly without using lights.

True, you don’t get such luxuries as extra-close focusing (take the 2.5m close focus claim with a large pinch of salt, it’s actually longer than 3m), and they’re quite soft at the edges of the field of view. The strap and carry pouch are basic, and eye-relief is a low 13.6mm. Glasses wearers would be well advised to try these out before buying. What’s most impressive, though, is the range of accessories on offer here, with a neoprene-padded strap, high-quality carry bag, lens cleaning cloth and even a shoulder harness all supplied in the box. The range of these binoculars is 1,000 feet, which is rather remarkable for such a small set of digital binoculars. This is due to Glassowl's new LED infrared illuminators, which are effective at longer ranges than older models. These Bostionye binoculars don't feature a compass or rangefinder. Instead, these binoculars include a separate kit designed to work with smartphone cameras. This is especially useful when photographing regattas, events, and sights along the way. The set includes a 5-in-1 lens kit, which makes it easy to zoom in with your iPhone without sacrificing image quality. In general, 20×50 binoculars are better for observing distant objects, while 12×50 binoculars are better for observing close objects. 12X50 Binoculars — An OverviewUpdated ergonomics with soft touch rubber and easy grip texture along the sides of the binocular, and on the bridge, reduce the chance of dropping and give a confident hand feel….even with one hand. These binoculars are a great way to get a closer look at things that are far away. They have a wide field of view and are great for bird watching, hunting, or even just observing nature. These binoculars are also relatively affordable, making them a great option for those on a budget.

If you're looking for something with greater than 12x magnification, binoculars may not be for you. Above that mark, hand shake becomes unwieldy, even for the steadiest hands in the west. At that point, you'll be looking at a tripod-mounted spotting scope instead. Key specs – 8.5x magnification; 42mm objective lenses; 7.6° field of view; 20mm eye relief; adjustable eye cups; 1.5m close focusing distance; 974g (with strap and lens caps)

 Best 20×50 Binoculars 2022:

Twilight factor is computed by multiplying the objective lens diameter by the magnification and then taking the square root of this product. Thus an 8x42mm binocular has a product of 336 (8x42=336). The square root of this is 18.33 (√336=18.33). This number may seem reasonable when comparing an 8x42 pair of binoculars with a twilight factor of 18.33 with an 8x25 pair with a twilight factor of 14.14. The twilight factor really only comes to play when looking for binoculars to use during twilight or for astronomy. Again, this formula also doesn't consider the optical quality that has a tremendous impact on the perceived brightness of the optics. In broad daylight, the average adult has a dilated pupil of 3mm. The diameter of a healthy young adult can range be between 2mm to 8mm, and as you get older, it can get reduced to 5-6mm. A smaller exit pupil also makes it harder to center your eye on the image. Your eye needs to be centered exactly over the exit pupil to see. Knowing your terminology is important, so let's go over a few things you should know. The first thing you're going to see is some numbers like this: 8X42. The first number is the magnification; the second number is the objective lens size. We will talk about these two items first.
