8x42 vs 10x42 Binoculars - Which is Best?

My telescope is 30x25

Great review and unbiased commentary-I’m keen on whale watching from my balcony so will most probably go for a 10x50 magnification. Another Saffer

Thanks for your English, easily understandable even for the foreign listeners.

i'm shaky, you solved my doubt quite fast, thank you very much

So are you going to talk about any of the advantages of 10x binos? Seems like according to your video there is nothing good about a 10x42.

Excelente producto, calidad de la imagen muy buena

If you're a hunter and not extreme long range, 8X42 is the best and one with quality HD lenses will suffice. You get the broadest field of view within non-extreme shooting ranges, you can still see really far with it and you won't cry a river if you damage- or loose it, as you probably would if you loose a classy ED-unit at 2-3X the cost. That easily happens when hunting - especially in rugged terrain. Meopta has a fantastic 8X42 with flouride-HD lenses, the Optika HD. Perhaps review it? I think it's the absolute top in the price bracket (but I would still cry, if I lost it!). The Leupold BX-2 Alpine is also a very good candidate. Bird-watching? Get an ED unit for that final accuracy in the representation of the observed and a 10X42 to get a bit closer to the little fella too. Of course, if budget is not an issue, ED is the superior choice in all use cases.

So informative. TY for this guide.

What is better; a racing bike or a mountain bike?

You are missing so many points. Most of all: the physics of the human eye, personal physics general and about philosophy (marketing tricks also) and interests. Also Art making with a binocular you miss completely. Lot's to learn for you. Greetings, Onno Nugteren.

Hi, greetings from Brazil. Unfortunately, I've reached your "class" on this specific issue one day after purchasing a 10x42 (birdwatching intended). I hope it fits me well. New follower.

Great video on a complex issue, at least for me being the greenhorn I am in this. Thank you, sir! - I was wondering, do all binoculars today come with possibility of vision correction for both eyes?

As an eyeglass user and one who birds a lot I look for 10x42 that offer a lot of eye relief, typically more than 20mm. I currently own Pentax with a 21mm eye relief and really love these binoculars which are not inexpensive but less than half the cost of truly high end binoculars like Leica

Great stuff! Thanks for sharing!

Well Jason, as you well know, it depends.
On some days they all look pretty good.
On a poor day some look a bit better.
And on a bad day none are any good.
But as a general rule, as the power goes up, the size of the objective lens should increase in size as well.
