A normal pair of binoculars probably doesn’t seem that heavy at first, but imagine trying to spend hours outside with it hanging around your neck. At this point, the idea becomes much less appealing, and you’ll probably be looking for another option. In this case, you should consider portable or compact binoculars to save a lot of strain.

With good binoculars you feel like you are looking with your own eyes only the view is closer, magnified and clear. How big do you want that image to be? Well, that will depend on many things. How heavy will the binoculars be with extra magnification? Can you hold the binoculars steady if they are magnified more than 10 times (10x)? I find it hard to hold 12x steady for any length of time without support. But I have small hands and that makes a difference too. Will the bird binoculars you choose work well with eyeglasses? Some are better than others for eye relief and eyeglasses.
