NYTimes.com David Pogue reviews a variety of Digital Binoculars.
Video Rating: 4 / 5
This is my first video dubbed with audio. In this little experiment I am using my Sony DSC P72 Digital camera in 640 VGA MPEG video mode to capture scenes of a tractor tire with and without the aid of my Leupold 7x Binoculars. Once the video was captured I extracted one frame of the unmagnified tractor tire and one frame of the magnified tractor tire. I pasted each snapshot into visio alongside a calibrated ruler. It looks like these Leupold Binocs really are 7 power.

Or divide the objective lens by the exit pupil (the light seen through the eye lens when held away from your eyes) to get the magnification.

Ignore the bad comments. I enjoyed your video because I am into astronomy, telescopes and binoculars and your video proved a good point. Thanks for the video, it was a good way to find out power in binoculars.

This would be a good demo for Physics class. They used to do a lot of in class experiments – like, hang a bowling ball from the ceiling, get back in the corner and hold it up to the nose (you’d be a fool to push), let it swing clear across the room and (gasp) almost hit the nose – proving whether you REALLY believe the theory.
