audubon binoculars - get out hunting or birding with a new pair

More recently binoculars have been used for astronomical viewing. Here are some tips on how to select the right night binoculars for you.

Magnification specifications of 8x42 or 10x42 are perfect for a variety of outdoor optics requirements. Two views are drawn together to make one total picture and allow the viewer to see things at some distances up close and personal. There are many different features to look for when making your purchase.

Folding in the eyepiece between observations will protect the eyepiece against scratches or other inadvertent damage. So a pair of binoculars that has the number 7x30 stamped onto the casing is a binocular that will magnify any object to seven times its actual size, and has a lens size of 30mm. The area of land or sky that is presented to your eyes by using binoculars is referred to as the field of view.

Binocular lens protectors drive water off the lens surface of both objective lenses and eyepieces, helping eliminate glare caused by water droplets. Furthermore, binoculars with a wide field of view allow a user to observe a wide area, making it easier to observe star clusters, comets, and galactic clouds. Under the right conditions, water drops could form inside the chamber, which could form permanent streaks on the lens when they evaporate.

There is much more to astronomy then buying a telescope. As you can see from this article, the best binoculars repair strategy is preventive.
