Get the right pair of binoculars for your bird watching and trekking adventures.

Starting point
First determine your primary use of the binoculars - whether bird watching, sightseeing or for direction-finding purposes.

For watching in the woods
A close-focusing 7 x 35 is a good option for birding in forests or woodlands with mixed growth. Though the 10 x 40 ones are pretty popular, they are too powerful for a pleasurable view at such places.

Adventures closer Home
Those who prefer catching up on the nature around the city should opt for the compact options. As most neighbourhood birding and nature walks are planned in daytime, 20 mm to 32 mm objectives in a 7 to 8 power range are usually sufficient, and more convenient to carry.

Capturing life on far off places
Go for binoculars that provide the magnification power 10 if rookeries on distant cliffs or birding for skittish gulls and terns on miles of deserted beaches fascinate you. Aperture in the 35 mm to 42 mm range is good for such experiences during the day.

Multi-purpose
If it's really difficult for you to decide your primary use, the 30mm to 42mm aperture range might be the best compromise. Available in a variety of sizes, weights, and prices, they offer good twilight factors and usually quite reasonable close-in performance, while still having enough power for long distance work.
