  1. Something to keep an eye out for as well is the prism.  Someone might be able to explain this better but I know the cheaper binoculars will use a BAK-7 prism and you'll get a cloudy picture, while BAK-4 is the good sort.  I believe it's to do with the glass quality. Very noticeable when you pick up a pair of each. (probably not an issue you'll come accross with brand names and high prices but for people who might trade some extra magnification for a lesser brand it seems worth mentioning)

     

    Also, make sure you can hold them up comfortably. My dad bought a large pair for the extra magnification but he steals mine whenever he goes away now because he found his too cumbersome to hold up for any period of time.
