Tech Talk

• Magnification: Magnification is indicated by the first number given. For instance, "7x" means that you will see an object seven times closer than if you were viewing with the naked eye.
• Objective Lens Diameter: The objective lens diameter is indicated by the second number (e.g., 21mm), which indicates how much light is able to enter the binocular. The larger this number is the better your sight will be in lower light conditions.
• Roof Prisms: Roof prism binoculars are streamlined and compact because they utilize trim roof-shaped prisms to elongate the light path. Roof prism binoculars are usually more expensive than equivalent porro prism models.
