Let’s start…
What to Look for When Buying Binoculars for Bird Watching?
The right pair of binoculars is probably your most important piece of equipment for bird watching. The right binoculars can enhance your enjoyment of the natural world exponentially.
However choosing the right pair of binoculars for bird watching can be a tricky position. That’s why we decided to help you out with this matter by explaining what you need to look for when buying binoculars for bird watching.
Magnification

Every binocular has two numbers in its description. For example, it will show numbers such as 8×50, 8×30, or 10×25.
The first number in the description is the magnification. Magnification is the number of times an object is magnified through the binocular.
So a 8×30 binocular would have a magnification of 8.
Lens Diameter

The second number in a binocular description is the diameter of the objective lens. The diameter of the lens is usually measured in millimeters (mm).
The diameter of the lens is very important because it is responsible for the amount of light that flows through the binocular.
More light is good because it allows you to see better colors and brighter images in dark conditions.
Field of View

Field of view (FOV) is the visible area seen through the binoculars as you look through them.
FOV can be described as the amount of details you can see looking through your binoculars.
Having a small field of view while watching birds can be tricky annoying and frustrating because it is easy to lose track of them when they move around.
That’s it! Those are the key factors you need to consider when buying binoculars. You are now all set to spend some money on good pair of binos.
Of course, you can spend a fortune on these if you want to, but you don’t have to, so we have compiled a short list of seven pairs that we feel are a good buy, across the board, and suitable for all pockets, literally.
