how do the 8x42 binocs compare to the 10x42s? If the measurements give are correct the 10x42s are half the size of the 8x42s? Do they both fold?

The first # is magnification and the second # is the diameter of the objective lens in mm. 8x42 means 8x magnification with a objective lens of 42mm diameter. Therefore 8X42 vs. 10X42 indicates a difference in magnification with same objective lens diameter. You can adjust the eyepiece spacing to match the viewer's eyes.

I have no idea as I own only the ten power. They are very compact for the power and they 'fold' to compensatefor different eye widths. The quailty of image is every thing they say. If i lost mine I would have no hesitation to get the exact same replacement. A great product.

We did not try the 8x42. We are very pleased with the 10x42. They adjust well for my wife and me. Fold? I'm not sure what you mean. They do fit well in the carrying case with the carrying strap. The viewing is very good and clear and the adjustment for distances is simple and effective. Hope this helps!

My 8x42s are great it's the best pair I have ever owned they are just a little loose wish they were tighter so when u put them down and they rest on your chest they would stay the same way,but I still like them

The 25 and 36 refer to the size of the lens opposite the eyepiece in mm. The larger the lens the more light it gathers. This of course makes for a heavier monocular and a larger one. I have a 10x25 and it is fine. You have to have a steady hand though in using the devise.

Hey, I have no clue. All I know is this is the 2nd pair of the same binocs I've bought. I like them a lot and think I got a good value for my money (twice).

depends on which one you're looking at 5x40 and 6x50 are two different units I have the 6x50 . 50mm lens giving you better light gathering ability so its a 6x with a 50mm lens it also has a 3x digital zoom on top of that , love mine

Yes, I have the 10x42 Aculon a211 binoculars and they are really nice. We use them for animal and nature viewing and they are wonderful. I don't think you will regret your purchase.

I have #71020 [25 - 125X80] only and do not know how it compares to 25X100. At 25X it is super clear even if you are holding it with your hands but of course, it will tires you out quickly bcoz of its weight and size. To fully enjoy this powerful bino spend money on a high-end tripod like SLK brand or other comparable reputable brands especially if you would like to experiment zooming closer than 25X --field of view gets smaller as you increase magnification and you can do it without a tripod. I stay at 25X or maybe few notches up bcoz I get dizzy looking thru it at much higher magnification. Maybe 25X100 is plenty of power for what you need it for, anything pass 100X is practically useless. And you may even save money w/c you can spend on tripod. Just my honest opinion... enjoy it!

These will work fine. Because they are smaller, the field of view will be smaller. The object will be the same size, you just won't be able to see as much in the view as you would with bigger lens. Basically, these are as powerful as larger sized binoculars, you just don't get the field of view that you do in larger lens. Hope this helps

Not sure off hand, I think they're about 10" long x 8" wide, maybe? The exact dimensions should be on Nikons website, just Google it and see what they are. These aren't compact glasses, but they're not overly large either. Nice glasses and not very heavy. Personally, I'd prefer a smaller set but the price is right on these.

For the 8x42 model... There's a small decorative cap with the the Bushnell "B" logo that screws off, then in the resulting screw hole you can attach an after market tripod adapter. Just search for "binocular tripod adapter", I think I paid about $8 for mine, which I use with this exact model binocular. The Bushnell site states the 10-22x50 Zoom is also adapter ready, I would imagine that to be the case, but do not have first hand experience.

Actually they are quite large and I had to send mine back for that reason. I ordered Tasco 12x25 binoculars they are much smaller and fit neatly in my purse.

They are approximately 6" x 7" at their widest points. They are NOT mini-binocs/opera glasses. They are worth the size and weight because the lenses are very good. For wildlife viewing/bird watching in the Amazon, these were vital. Hope this reply helps you make your decision. :) Donna

Yes according to manufacturer..............would suggest looking at 10X42 vs 8X42. In retrospect, I should have gone with the 10X.

I, too, am a woman with a pretty small face, but I can fold the two lenses down toward each other and it works for me. If you fold them too far, the lenses black out. I hope you can make it work because I really like these binoculars.

8X30 (8 power X 30 mm objective lens)......super binocular for the price. I have 5 pairs of binoculars...these are the ones I carry the most...light and high quality.

I haven't compared them, but the 2 X 2 gives quite a wide view, and I can't imagine how the larger one would give an advantage. It would also cover up more of your mirror. But I don't really know how the reflected images in those two compare. I do know that the 2 X 2 is a good product and works very well.

I'm sorry that I don't know the answer to your question. I know that I am in love with the Ranger 8X42 and have purchased 2 pairs. One for the car and one for the house. I took my advice from another owner and had the opportunity to try them before I bought them. Honestly I think trying them is the only way to make a good decision. These binoculars can focus extremely close as well as excellent distance range. It was what guided my decision.
