Our family owned and operated business was started in 1976 (that’s 43 years ago!). We understand the importance of choosing a binocular or spotting scope that works for you and are pleased to provide this detailed and easy to use Optics Guide. Here are a few pointers that will help you make your selection:

The first consideration is that optics vary in price from under $50 to over $4,000. You will want to stay within your budget, but down the road, you won’t regret buying the best you can afford. The graph below gives you a quick break-down on the price range of optics. While this can vary in manufacturer’s or people’s opinions, it is a basic price guide.

For the most part, you get what you pay for. Buying a medium price binocular gives you a lot of binocular for your money, even though a high-end binocular will far out perform medium priced ones. Sometimes a company promotion or a special buy brings high-end optics into the medium-high price range.

The second consideration is the magnification. This is thoroughly covered under “Power or Magnification” on page one. Remember, usually lower power shows more detail, but higher power is sometimes desired for long distance observation. In birding, it would be for raptors, waterfowl and shorebirds. The best way to make your selection is to look through different powers and find what works best for you.

Here are a few other considerations:

· Do you need a lightweight binocular or will some weight not bother you?

· Will you need a waterproof binocular? (Most binoculars over $100 are waterproof these days.)

· Will you be wearing eyeglasses or sunglasses?

· Do you need extreme close focus? Most binoculars close focus to 8-10 feet with some extreme close focus at 4 feet. Usually you will experience some eye strain at extreme close focus.

Consider carefully and invest in the model you like! We are here to help you go through the options. Sincerely,

Robert Hershberger Time and Optics, Ltd.

BI NO C U L A R BASIC SBinoculars are typically described by two numbers, such

as 7x35, referred to as, “seven by thirty-five”. The first num-ber given is the power or magnification. A 7x (seven power) binocular will make an object look seven times closer or seven times larger than you would see with the unaided eye.

The second number, 35, refers to the diameter or width (in millimeters) of the front, or objective lens. The size of the objective lens determines how bright an object will ap-pear to your eyes. A third number commonly printed on binoculars is the angle or field of view. This number tells you how wide an area you will see.

P OW E R OR M AG N I F IC AT IONThe magnification of most handheld binoculars range

from 6x to 10x. Seven and eight power models are con-sidered to be the most versatile, multi-use binoculars. Al-though it seems sensible that a high power model would help you see things in more detail than a low power model, this is rarely the case. The largest drawback of higher power is that along with magnifying the object, it also magnifies the movement of your hands and body, which causes the image you see to shake or appear jumpy. Keep in mind that the shake will be noticeably worse during and for a short time after any physical exertion. A second drawback is that higher power models generally have a smaller field of view, causing difficulty in finding or following objects.

We do not mean that 9x and 10x binoculars should be avoided. Many experienced birders prefer 10x models, es-pecially for birds that are difficult to approach, such as rap-tors and shorebirds. We suggest you try looking through a high power binocular to determine whether or not you are able to hold them steady. Handheld use of magnifications above 12x is extremely difficult, and we suggest using a tri-pod or window mount for the best results. When powers of 15x or higher are required to see detail at a distance, a tripod-mounted spotting scope should be considered.

OB J E C T I V E L E N SThe size of the objective lens directly affects the bright-

ness of the image and the physical size and weight of the binoculars. It does not affect the field of view or area that you will see.

A larger objective lens will gather more light and usually deliver a sharper, brighter image. We stress the word usu-ally because once the light is collected, there are many fac-tors that affect how well it is delivered to your eyes. These factors will be covered later in, “Optical Quality.”

The downside of a larger objective lens is that as the size of the lens increases, so does both the weight and the size of the binoculars. Binoculars that are too large or heavy to carry comfortably tend to get left behind.

F I E L D OF V I E WManufacturers use two interchangeable terms to describe

the amount of area you will see while looking through bin-oculars. Linear field of view is the most commonly used method and describes how wide an area (in feet) you will see while viewing an object one thousand yards away, usu-ally denoted as xxx feet at 1,000 yards. The second method, used by most European manufacturers, is angular field of view which describes the same area measured in degrees of arc. Each degree is 52.5 feet across at 1,000 yards away, so to convert the angular field of view into linear field of view multiply the degree of arc by 52.5 feet. As a general rule, the higher the magnification, the smaller the field of view. Therefore a 10x model will usually have a smaller field of view than a 7x model. In addition to magnification, the de-sign and quality of both the prisms and eyepieces also affect the field of view. Although a wide field of view is desirable, beware of inexpensive models boasting a field of view of 10 degrees (525 feet at 1,000 yards) or more, because sharp-ness is usually sacrificed for an extremely wide field.

B E Y O N D T H E B A S I C SE X I T P U PI L

You can see the exit pupil of any binocular by holding it at arm’s length and pointing it at a light. The exit pupil is the circle of light leaving the eyepiece. Under dim and dark con-ditions a larger exit pupil will provide a brighter image. How-ever, on bright or sunny days the pupils in your eyes close down and will not make use of all the light. To determine the exit pupil size (diameter in millimeters), divide the diameter of the objective lens by the magnification. A 7x35 model will deliver a 5 mm exit pupil (35 ÷ 7 = 5). The exit pupil of most binoculars varies between 2.5 mm and 7 mm.

C L O SE F O C U SThe term close focus indicates the shortest distance (in feet)

you can be from an object and still maintain a sharp focus. For uses such as bird-watching or nature studies, binoculars with a close focus of 12 feet or less are recommended. Models with a close focus of 8 feet or less are considered exceptional.

E Y E R E L I E FEye relief refers to the distance (in millimeters) your eyes

can be from the eyepiece and still see the entire field of view. Although short eye relief poses few prob-lems for those who do not wear glasses, long eye relief is important to people who need or want to wear eye-glasses or sunglasses while using binoculars. We sug-gest an eye relief of 15 mm or longer if you wear glasses and want the full field of view.

OP T IC A L QUA L I T YFour major factors determine the optical quality of bin-

oculars; optical alignment, prism quality, lens quality and coatings. A durable and rigid housing is necessary to insure the precise optical alignment of all lenses, prisms and eye-pieces. If alignment is off by a small amount, the muscles of

your eyes must work to com-pensate, which can cause eye-strain and headaches. Double or crossed vision will occur if optical alignment is off by a large amount. The prism qual-

ity depends on both the quality of glass used and prism design. Most high quality binoculars use BaK-4 prisms which provide crisp colors and clear, round exit pupils. Lower quality prisms such as BK-7 limit sharpness and detail. They also dull colors and provide an exit pupil with squared off edges. Color fidelity, brightness, contrast and sharpness are all affected by lens qual-ity. High quality glass such as ED (extra-low dispersion) HD (High Definition) or fluorite are used to provide the sharp-est and most brilliant images possible. Anti-reflective coatings significantly improve brightness and contrast while reducing both glare and light loss. Fully multi-coated optics will provide higher contrast and detail than multi-coated, fully-coated or non-coated lenses.

Modern binoculars use one of two prism designs: porro or roof. The diagram (top right) shows the path that light follows through porro and roof prism models. Utilizing fewer prisms and a simpler light path, porro prism binocu-lars are less costly to manufacture and usually offer optics equal to more expensive roof prism models. Many premi-um quality binoculars use the roof prism design because they are more compact and will tolerate rougher use.

F O C U S T Y PE SThree basic focus systems are used: center, individual

and permanent focus. The center focus style is most com-mon. Both sides focus simultaneously by turning a central dial. This allows for quick and simple focusing while view-ing moving objects. Binoculars that are focused by turn-ing each eyepiece individually are best suited for viewing slow-moving or stationary objects that do not require con-stant refocusing. Permanent focus or non-focusing systems produce inferior detail and are used mainly in lower qual-ity models. Permanent focus (focus free) models have two major drawbacks: close focus is normally 30-40 feet, and they lack a diopter which allows you to adjust for differ-ences in eye strength.

WAT E R A N D BI NO C U L A R SBinocular manufacturers use many terms to describe

how wet a particular model can get without internal fog-ging or damage. Only models labeled waterproof are guar-anteed against water leakage and are often filled with ni-trogen to prevent fogging. All other models vary greatly in their ability to resist moisture. Descriptions such as weath-er resistant, showerproof, splashproof, water resistant, and weatherproof usually indicate a model is highly resistant to moisture, but generally offer no guarantee against wa-ter damage or fogging under extreme conditions. Rubber armoring does not affect a binocular’s resistance to water.

LETTERS FROM EDENby Julie ZickefooseA Year at Home in the WoodsAt the age of seven Julie Zickefoose knew she wanted to paint birds. Her lifelong dedication shows in her paintings of birds and nature. Wild turkeys, coyotes, box turtles, and a bird eating bullfrog flap, lope and leap through her prose. To some the “real world” in America is steel, concrete, asphalt, etc. The real world captured in Julie’s luminous paintings and eloquent words is made of soil, scent, bird song and frog croaks. It’s a world composed of moonlight, raindrops, turkey tracks and the sputtering first flight of baby wrens. Julie, with her birder/editor husband, Bill Thompson III, was able to create her own Eden. 221 pages. Hardcover.WB73080 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .$26.00

BLACK SWAMP BIRD OBSERVATORY (BSBO)Located in the heart of the Lake Erie Marsh Region, the Black Swamp Bird Observatory is an independent

non-profit organization dedicated to wildlife research, conservation, and public education. Our mission is to develop and promote sound stewardship of avian and other wildlife resources through research and education. Accomplished with the assistance of dedicated volunteers, the Observatory’s research projects have developed long-term data sets that give a truer picture of population trends over a longer period. BSBO research has been important in identifying the value of the Lake Erie Marsh Region habitats for various migrating birds like shorebirds, songbirds, and raptors. Our research has been invaluable in providing information to the public in the form of educational programming, enabling people to make more informed decisions about conservation issues. Our literature on the timing of bird migration allows bird-watchers to maximize their experiences in the area. The Observatory’s educational programs reach people from the very young to the young at heart. Our youth programs are designed to play an active role in the lives of young people throughout their years of educational development. From our Nature Tots program for preschoolers, to our Ohio Young Birders Club for ages 12-18, our programs offer hands on nature related experiences. Our monthly Nature Center program schedule includes the very popular Third Saturday Lunch Lecture Series, and BSBO Bird Study. These programs offer participants the opportunity to learn more about birds and wildlife and interact with others with similar interest.419.898.4070 . www.bsbobird.org
