Does anyone even know how the FOV is determined? Certainly not by the first or second numbers in the designations: Here is an example. http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp?id=0044455712728a&type=product&cm Cat=SEARCHFEAT&returnPage=search-results1.jsp&QueryText=binoculars&N=4887&a mp;Ntk=Products&Ntx=mode+matchall&Nty=1&am p;Ntt=binoculars&noImage=0

This has 8x42 adn 10x42 that are much more different than the above example in spite of being virtually the same "powers" A lot at other brands shows the same disparity. On the surface, you would think that all 10X 42 binoculars would have the same FOV, but that is not the case. Even saw an 8 X 32 that had a FOV of over 400 ft! Not sure what determines the FOV, but it is certainly not those two numbers.

Bottom line, is that if you want a bigger FOV, you probably need to check out other brands.
