Default RE: Difference in scope powers

The bigger the objective lense, the more light it lets in. So it will be a brighter picture during lowlight conditions.
This is only true if both scopes have identical lenses and coatings.A scope with a smaller objective lens can be brighter if higher quality lens coatings are used.
