Fuwe 10x25 binoculars, compact binoculars with precise ergonomic design for bird watching for hiking concerts

Product Information

In most instances, binoculars for kids do not have the same magnification strength or quality as full-sized binoculars for adults. However, you can get full glass prisms and magnifications up to 8x. These should be excellent for bird watching and other outdoor and recreational activities. Included Accessories They're compact, ergonomically designed, and of rugged construction that prevents any ingress from water if submerged at a depth of one meter for five minutes. Close-up performance is also impressive, with the ability to view subjects as near as 1.5m. There is an adage that goes "the best pair of binoculars is the one you use." If you have a pair of binoculars that are comfortable to hold, carry, or look through, chances are you're actually going to use them. In our tests, we found the Swarovski EL 8.5x42 to be the most comfortable of the lot. Nikon 10x42 SE (that beveled chamfering on the front of the rounded prism housing allows for a "elbow's down" stance similar to roofs)

Beginning stargazers often overlook binoculars for astronomy, but experienced observers keep them close at hand. Compared to a telescope, binoculars for astronomy actually have certain advantages. Granted, they're smaller and give lower magnification. But they're lighter, much easier to take outside, use, and put away, and less expensive. They also give a much wider view than a telescope does, making celestial objects easier to find. They let you use both eyes, providing surer, more natural views. Moreover, in binoculars for astronomy everything is right-side up and presented correctly, not upside down and/or mirror-reversed. For example, this option boasts waterproofed, nitrogen-filled housing to prevent fogging along with high-quality BaK-4 prisms used in their construction to increase brightness. Overall, our test fleet of binoculars was subjected to numerous testing procedures to rate their performance. We put the most weight on the clarity score, corresponding to 45% of each binocular's overall score. This was tested using an ISO 12233 chart (a standardized chart used to test digital still-imagery cameras) and by placing model birds on a tree to compare the same bird side-by-side in identical lighting scenarios. Brightness was another metric of great importance. By taking photos through each binocular and comparing them side by side, we can compare these metrics objectively.However, the binoculars themselves feel solidly made, they’re light and portable and offer screw-out eyecups – a lot more than you’d expect for the money.

Only thing is the strap, if I wear the bins in the normal way and rotate them, it's across my face holding the bins upside down. Not much of a nuisance, but it takes a second or two to get it out of the way. As well as being a fine microscope this is now really a collector’s piece. The Orthoplan was introduced as the flagship model in 1966 and continued in production essentially unchanged until 1991 which attests to the original design which was the first designed for a field of view of 28mm - more than twice the area of standard microscopes. This particular unit would date from the later years of this period because of the livery of off- white/ivory colour. The body work and stage are excellent considering its age. All Orthoplans had 170mm tube length objectives for bright field. The five objectives here are x2.5 plan (0.08), x4 (0.12), x10 plan (0.30), x40 (0.65) and x100 plan oil immersion (1.32). The trinocular head has the 30mm wide field eyepieces with the interocular distance control by a thumb gear system and there is image direction adjustment for the trinocular tube which we have added an adapter to to more easily accommodate a camera compared to the standard very wide tube. The external light box houses a 12v 100 halogen lamp with full position control and the original Leitz power box. This is a fine microscope Rubber-coated, non-slip, and water-resistant, these Pentax binoculars use an unusual reverse Porro prism construction. Most compact binoculars use a roof prism construction - whilst alternative, larger models usually use the Porro prism design. 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. ED is the common abbreviation for Extra – low Dispersion glass. These are specially treated lenses with multiple layers of coating that reduce colour fringing by limiting the amount white light splits into constituent colours as it passes through the glass.I tried an Optolyth Royal 7x42 about 22 years ago; very good balance on both focus wheels, very smooth, a joy to hold. Optics didn't impress me much so I returned them after two weeks for a pair of Swift Audubon new model 8,5x44 porro. Optics on these were better, but ergonomics much worse; I could not get used to them and sold them.

This model is our first choice and offers just about the best clarity and brightness you can get from a binocular without a quadruple-digit price tag All of Canon’s current range of binos have the ‘IS’ suffix in their model name to denote the fact they’re image-stabilized binoculars. This battery-operated option enables you to get a wobble-free image by just pressing a button on the binoculars – and the stabilizing effect is both instant and jaw-dropping. For sports or hiking, where you’re more likely to be viewing in full daylight or under bright stadium lights, you can get away with a smaller objective lens as long as the magnification isn’t too high. 25, 26 and 30mm pairs fit into this category, with 7x, 8x and 10x magnification. The Celestron UpClose G2 10x50 is about as basic a pair of binoculars as you can get. The Celestron brand makes many different models of binoculars, some exceptionally high-end, but this pair of 10x50s represents the most affordable available. Binoculars are generally described with two numbers, separated by an x, such as 8x42. The first number refers to the magnification, or how many times larger the lenses will make something appear. The second number refers to the diameter of the objective lens (the big lenses at the front) in millimeters. Larger objective lenses can let more light make it to your eyes, resulting in a brighter image. However, it also means the binoculars will be larger and heavier. Knowing what numbers you should be looking for in a model is important, so we broke down the ideal uses for all magnifications and objective lens sizes below. Magnification

Binoculars have lots of different specs, but two key ones are best to focus on if you want to keep things simple. These are magnification and lens size. The best binoculars for kids let them see the world around them in a new and magnified way. With binoculars for children, intrepid explorers can spot birds nesting in towering trees and even see bugs finely detailedly. Hence, these handheld optical devices let kids explore nature up close. Binoculars are an investment and you don’t want something that is going to be ruined during bad weather conditions. Every model in the BDII-XD range benefits from a magnesium alloy chassis, a sophisticated moulding process produces the feel and strength of metal with the added benefit of decreased weight.

This gave me another thought of improved ergonomics for the manufacturers to notice: forget the dual focus knobs, no need for that; just add two more attachment points for the strap on the bins, so you get FOUR eyelets, two on each side of the bins, on the same level, and you can choose to wear your bins in a normal or upside-down manner. They will hang vertically in any position then. Making this so should not be very demanding, as it would be part of the housing and not of the optical system. The Celestron Nature DX 8x42 punched well above its price class in our clarity testing, particularly in bright light situations. They produced a crisp image rich with detail and only showed slight blurring around the edges. Things became a bit less crisp in low-light situations, but we could still see identifying features on smaller birds during late dawn and early dusk. Brightness General rule of thumb with all optics is as you pay more you are paying for higher quality glass and coatings which result in a sharper, crisper image. It allows the observer to maintain proper upright posture and to move the eyepieces closer when the scope is in a bio-clean hood or must be positioned far from the edge of a workbench.

The BDII-XD series are engineered to enhance your viewing experience. A fluid, aluminium focus wheel delivers pin point accuracy and smooth twist eye-cups ensure optimum viewing for both spectacle and non spectacle wearers. Tailor the BDII-XD specific to your own viewing requirements with an easy to use dioptre adjustment system. The bridge is responsive and sure, when you hold the new BDII-XD you will instantly appreciate the high level of engineering and quality materials utilised throughout the manufacturing process.
