Careful consideration needs to be made whether a new birder or one who has spent some time in the field and acquired some expertise. Before you go looking for a pair of binoculars you need to sit down and decide what you will be using your new binoculars for.
There is a great difference in price, comparing a telescope and binoculars. Many night vision binoculars work similar to digital cameras, they have a built in flash. The binocular rating has two basic parameters, magnification and aperture.
The fog proof models have interior optical surfaces that won't fog due to rapid temperature changes or humidity. I had been hinting for months to my fiance, and so I was thrilled when I received a pair of Nikon Monarch Binoculars as a birthday gift. But still, a good pair of night-vision binoculars will cost at least a thousand dollars.
Quality night binoculars have an infrared illuminator which increases the available infrared light. Coated lens will improve the binoculars contrast and image quality. Many of us have looked at the moon through binoculars.
Make sure you look at the len's coating when making your purchase of binoculars. Ideally, you are going to lug these babies around for 10 or 20 years, so get a good pair.
