Having just finished completed testing and reviewing these excellent Kite Lynx HD+ 10x50 binoculars, it reminded me how for some uses combining slightly larger 50mm lenses with a 10x magnification can certainly make a better choice than the default option of a 10x42 binocular, yet it is hardly ever considered and won't be for everyone.
So in this article and included video, I go over the main differences in both the physical aspects and the optical performance of a 10x42 vs 10x50 binocular which in turn should help you to decide which of these two specific configurations is best suited for your specific needs. Examples of the subjects I cover: Size It stands to reason that in order to accommodate the larger objective lenses, the barrels on a 50mm binocular need to be larger than those on a 42mm one.
This has a bearing on the instrument's overall dimensions and thus most 10x50 binoculars tend to be greater in size than 10x42s. Theoretical Optical Differences 1. Just as the large windows in your house are able to let in more light than small ones, the larger surface area of these 50mm lenses means that they have the potential to “capture” more light than 42mm ones. More light means more information and thus if all else is equal, there is the potential for brighter, better-quality views through 10x50 binoculars versus 10x42 binoculars.... and much more.

100% Honest, Real Reviews, Advice & Opinions📒
I would like to make it completely clear that like all the reviews and advice that I give on the BBR video channel and website, this is my honest and completely genuine opinion and I am in no way compensated to describe a binocular in a particular way or with a bias. In other words, if I think a binocular or a feature on it is great, I will say so. If I think it is rubbish or it is weak in certain areas, I will also point them out. Before writing and publishing any binocular review, I thoroughly research, test and use the instrument in my office as well as out in the field. I also conduct comprehensive comparisons between the binocular under review with a number of benchmark binoculars in both good and bad light conditions. Whilst I make every effort not to, I do make the occasional error or am sometimes supplied with the wrong details. If you spot any mistakes, please feel free to contact me either in the comments section, via social media or on my site, so that I can rectify it/them. As always, I love getting feedback and your opinions. it is these that help me improve and continue to supply you with content, advice, and reviews that you actually want to watch.
