antique binoculars - these are the basics

Raise binoculars to your eyes and you can see everything far away as if it was right in front of you. Since the dawn of time, man has looked up at the heavens and wondered the beauty it may contain.

There are many ways you can use night binoculars. The best binoculars for astronomy use are 7 x 50 or larger. Many people prefer to carry binoculars around freely, rather than in a case.

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. In addition to this, the surface of the prism has a special mirror coating to prevent light loss.

If you plan on using your binoculars in low light conditions, you may want get an even higher objective diameter, such as 8x50. 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. They provide bright images, quality viewing, and total reflection control.

So, get out there. Treat your kids to a pair of inexpensive binoculars to explore the natural world around them.
