| ABOUT THESE BINOCS |
These are the least expensive of the 8x binoculars manufactured by Bushnell. They are real binoculars in every sense. |
These are considered toy binoculars, but they are the best toy binoculars we have found, and very easy to use. |
| MAGNIFICATION |
8x gives you that "right in your lap" feeling when you look at nearby birds. The moon is startling in all its detail and the Pleiades reveal many more stars than you can see with the naked eye. |
5x is sufficient for doing the lessons in our kits. Objects appear noticeably larger and reveal detail you cannot see with the naked eye. |
| BRIGHTNESS |
21 mm objective lens is a bit small. This means objects will appear slightly less bright with the unaided eye. |
50 mm objective lens can gather more light, so object appears significantly brighter with more pronounced colors than you see with the naked eye. |
| CLARITY |
Fully coated glass lenses and roof prism provide top notch image quality. |
Plastic lenses allow some distortion around the edges, as well as chromatic aberration (stray colors). |
