MAGNIFICATION
A magnification factor of 10 provides an image as if you are 10 times closer to the subject. The Explorer Series offers magnifications between 8x and 16x.
FIELD OF VIEW
The field of view is the angle of the viewing field measured in degrees. For each binocular model, the indicated specification reflects the size of the viewing field at a distance of 1000m from the observation point.
EXIT PUPIL
The exit pupil is the diameter of the light visible through the eyepiece. It’s calculated by dividing the objective lens diameter by the magnification factor. An exit pupil of 2mm is adequate for daytime use, while an exit pupil of 5mm to 7mm is appropriate for low light environments. The Explorer Series offers an exit pupil of 5mm.
