Binoculars for bird watching

Bright images and low light vision: SkyGenius 10x50 binoculars

What are good binoculars for bird watching?

When it comes to how to choose the binoculars for bird watching, there are a few criteria you should pay attention to.

• For bird watching and wildlife viewing, the magnification should be between 8x and 12x. More doesn't make sense without a tripod. At lower magnification, you won't' be able to see the details of birds.
• The objective lens diameter should be at least 40 mm if you want to use the binoculars in low light conditions.
• An exit pupil of 4mm and more provides brightness to recognize details at dawn or dusk.
• The field of view should be more than 110 m. A wide field of view makes it easier to find birds when looking through the binoculars.
• The close focus must not exceed 2 meters. This means it feels as close as 2 meters away from the bird. So you can get more exquisite details.

How much do bird-watching binoculars cost?

The price depends on your own requirements. Beginners do not have to start with top-class binoculars. You can get along with binoculars under 50.

These top-quality binoculars can go up to four-digit prices.
