There are a lot of issues when it comes to choosing binoculars for bird watching. Compact Nikon binoculars are the handiest and most versatile of all optical instruments I have used.
You buy the telescope and go home, put it up and go to look at the Moon. Still, recent trends have brought down the price to more affordable levels. Binoculars come in the convenient hand-held sizes which make them very easy to take with you wherever you go.
Numbers are used to describe the telescopic strength of the binoculars. I've used them for about three weeks now and have been blown away with the quality of the optics. All things you see through a night binocular appear green, because you don't look directly at the objects but at their image on a phosphor screen.
Magnification over ten generally causes the binoculars to lose some image crispness. You need to feel comfortable using them, they should feel right in your hands, around your neck and up to your face. My personal experience has revealed binoculars in the two to five hundred dollar range perform well and I ve never missed a sighting because of their quality.
If you are going on a long trip, binoculars will be excellent entertainment for kids. In conclusion, if you re into a good pair of binoculars and money is of no object, a Leupold Scope 10x50mm tactical binoculars may just be your best buy yet.
