Hey all,
quick Question, if you don't mind.
I am looking into getting a new/better set of Binos and getting back outdoors to enjoy nature again.
One thing that I am clueless about is whether the length of the "tube" has any effect on image quality.
Lets say that I'm looking at 2 sets of binos, each are 10x42, but one of them is more compact than the other. Maybe the compact is 1 to 2 inches shorter than the other, will that difference in length have any effect on the quality of the image produced? Assume that the glass in both are ED.
Would the longer produce the best image?
Is there any kind of "rule of thumb" type thing regarding the length of the tubes on binos and image quality?
Thank you all kindly.
Larry
