Binoculars? what does the magnification mean?

Posted by admin on December 12, 2011


I want to know what the magnification means, for example a 10X50 magnification

what does that mean? what distance does that cover? etc

    10 is the factor by which the image is magnified, 50 is the size of the object lens (the big end) in mm

    The bigger the object lens the more light passes through to the viewer – so a 10×50 will be usable in lower light conditions than a 10×25
