Great video.
I need binocular for trip with my boys (6 and 9 yr). I want also watch the sky in the night. I have dilemma which model and magnification will be better?
Bushnell NatureView 8×42/10×42 porro or roof?
I’ll get a Pentax PCF 8×30 soon! 🙂
what binocular is good to use in the darkness? Thanks
Sir your Texas Accent is great
clear and concise review.Thank you for sharing your expertise.
Big binoculars are surprisingly good toys
Very good tips thanks
You Genius
I have observed that even small size binocular works even perfectly just like bigger one so why buy big one which is difficult to carry . I have one with 12×30 which works fine and can come in pocket.
Now this is a good solid binocular video. I can attest that if your new to binoculars this gentleman is right about the shaking at higher than 10x. Personally, i find 10x too much shaking. I much, much, much prefer 8x for wildlife/birding and 7x for astronomy (getting a nice wide field of view of the stars in terrific). No need for tripod at 7x or 8x also.
thanks Ron – very useful
Great site Ron…full of clear understandable information and your cute face!
I like 10×50 handheld. The price of a good porro design 10×50 is like $150, to get the same quality in porro, it costs like $1000. People say the price difference is getting smaller, it’s not. It’s only for the small roof like 8×24 that roof is affordable.
Great video! Ron, could you please do a video on roof prism bins vs porro prism bins?
Cheers!
… Excellent and informative video. Thank You.

Is 6 x 25 good in daylight?
Sorry if this is a silly question but what does the 42 mean in 10×42. Thx
Do they have variable power binoculars like they do rifle scopes?
Extremely well-spoken !!! Rare quality YOUTUBE video. Keep em comin Mr Spomer.

What would you get for horseracing?
nice setup
Thanks! Excelent advice!!
i have a celestron 25-125×80 my fist ones ever
Excellent video. Clear and concise. Thank you.
porro is better than roof if the price is the same. roofprism has 15% lower light than porro, so for a roof to be as good as a porro you have to have superior coating which costs a lot. Also porro has a wider view with the same diameter.
Thank you best video on the subject I’ve watched…
Everything is simple. Thanks.
