Collection: Binoculars

A monocular has a single eyepiece and is lighter and more compact than binoculars, which offer two eyepieces. Monoculars are ideal for quick observations and easy handling, while binoculars offer a more intense observation experience and better depth perception.

The optimal magnification depends on the intended use. For general observation, 8x to 10x magnifications are good because they provide a stable view and are easy to handle. Higher magnifications are ideal for detailed observations, but often require a tripod.

Lenses should be cleaned with a special microfiber cloth or a soft brush to avoid scratches. Avoid aggressive cleaning agents and use special lens cleaners instead. The body of the device can be wiped with a damp cloth.
