i wanted a pair of digital camera binoculars for christmas, and i ended up gettin two pairs. One is a Simmons Captureview 8×42, and the other one is a Meade Captureview 8×30. I will probably be using it for sporting events and taking pictures while i am hiking or just outside. Which one should i keep?

    Keep whatever has the most megapixels, because the higher the ammount of megapixels the better quality oicture you will get. Otherwise if they are the sae keep the Simmons Captureview because it has a higher level of zoom

    If the Simmons is indeed 8×42, I’d choose that pair. NEITHER binocular has a zoom lens. They are both 8 power. The second number refers to the diameter of the lens. A 42 mm lens will do a better job at gathering light than a 30 mm lens and a 42 mm binocular is generally of better quality than a 30 mm binocular. I looked for both of these on eBay and I’d bet a nickel that they are both made by the same company and labeled with different brands for retail sale. Unless there is an obvious difference in overall quality or a huge difference in pixel count on the imaging system, I’d go with the 8×42. 8×42 is pretty much the “standard” configuration for nature and bird watching. 30 mm is a “starter” binocular.
