One of the very important factors that decide the optical precision of the binocular is the field of view or what is also called as the angle of view.

Basically, this tells you how wide an area you will be able to see with the help of a particular binocular. Generally, this is measured in degrees.

A field of view of 390º for example would mean the width of whatever you are looking at is 390 feet at a distance of 1000 yards.

All of this is decided by the magnification of the binoculars, the focal lengths of the eyepieces and the objective optical lenses. The higher the magnification, the less the field of view.

There are basically two different types of prisms available - the porro prism and roof prism.

The former presents three dimensional images and occupies greater space, while the later offers reduce the image to present compact image.

Many people prefer a roof prism design rather than a Porro prism. Roof prism style binoculars are easier to seal and make waterproof.

They are sleeker. The PC roof prism gives sharper images than those of the regular roof prism.

Roof prism binoculars are more streamlined and are often more durable than the Porro prism type.
