Binoculars have been around since the 1600’s century after telescopes have been invented. People use to connect two telescopes together and in able to see with both eyes.

During the 1800’s a porro prism binoculars were created that enabled greater depth perception and also spaced the eye pieces wider apart. These binoculars were more powerful than the standard ones before then.

The cheapest binoculars are porro prisms that create detailed images and good color views. These are big and wide and sometimes need to be re adjusted to work properly.

A more costly pair of prism binoculars are roof prism binocular. These binoculars are lighter and smaller but lose some light. An advantage to them is that they usually never have to be re-adjusted. These binoculars weigh much less. Many roof prism binoculars have coated lenses.

Coated Lenses help make a bright image by reducing the amount of light that reflects. With out this, the binoculars will create a hazy picture.

Most Binoculars are focused by moving a round wheel that focuses both eye pieces at once. More complicated binoculars require independent focus which requires each eye piece to be focused separately.

More expensive binoculars have image stabilization which dampen sudden movement. This means that binoculars with high magnification can be hand held when normally they couldn’t. This feature is very expensive.

Coin-op binoculars can be found at many tourist attractions. These are always on a tripod or bipod.

Military Binoculars are at a magnification 7x. Military binoculars are tougher than other binoculars and they also use independent focusing because it is more sturdy . Most military binoculars also have special features that help it work while wet. Boating binoculars are meant to be easier on the eyes so you don’t get sea sick.

Astronomy Binoculars help you to view far away elements in the sky from far away. There are a lot of different planets like Pluto that can be seen with binoculars. It is nice to look with a lower powered binoculars because they have larger field of view.

I hope that you will come to see how great looking at the stars can be with binoculars. No matter what kind of binoculars you chose to buy, the most important thing out there is that you enjoy what you are using them for. You can still have fun with a $100 pair of binoculars if you enjoy looking at the stars with your kids. Teaching your kid’s about the big dipper is something you will never forget.

Kindle Reading Customer Reviews…

By:  Samuel Graham “Flyman”

Kindle Reading better than Sony and Nook

Ok, I am a pilot and was looking for an electronic reader to carry my IFR approach plates on. I started with the Sony Reader. A good product, but I was frustrated with the user interface and the very slow speed it operated at. Additionally the resolution was not great. I found it difficult to read the fine print typical of the PDF approach plates.

Next I got the nook. I waited two months to get it and I thought it would rock, but I discovered that it is bulky and the resolution is very bad. It had several features like a touch screen display, but I was frustrated by no ability to zoom or rotate the screen, so PDF was impossible to read on it. Plus it was very limited for online access (couldn’t browse the web or get access to most of the news).

Finally I got the Kindle Reading…. absolutely hands down winner of the three. There isnt even a competition. The Kindle Reading is quick, with a well thought-out interface, excellent image quality, has text to speech, almost a full web browsing capability, books download in seconds. The Kindle Reading is also thinner and lighter than the nook, and has more default storage space. The keyboard on the kindle is a life saver. The best thing I can say about the Kindle Reading is its ease of use. So if you are on the line between the three readers, Kindle Reading is for you. There is no competition.

Dyslexic Kindle Lover

By: D. Williams

I’m 61 years old and I have dyslexia pretty bad. In fact, I’m dictating this review to my wife or it would never get written. I’ve never been able to sit down and read a book before, besides technical things because I can’t read fast enough or accurately enough to keep my brain stimulated. But with the Kindle Reading and the text to speech feature, I am reading books left and right and am thrilled beyond belief. So, if you have dyslexia, or if someone on your Christmas list does, this is the answer!

The text to speech feature on the Kindle 2 could use some improvements. There are a lot of mispronounced words but for someone like me, who is just trying to read along with the speech, it’s quite acceptable. However, if you were vision-impaired or wanted to listen to it while you were doing something else, you might not like it. To all the publishers who have not allowed Amazon to enable the text to speech feature because you fear it might affect your Books on Tape sales, you have nothing to worry about. I have listened, over the years, to many books on tape and believe me, there is no comparison between a computer that pronounces the year “1910″ as “I go” and the performance of a Frank Mueller! But, rest assured, I will never buy a Kindle book that is not text to speech enabled. I wouldn’t be able to read it.

We live in a very rural area with spotty cell phone coverage. In fact we have no coverage on our farm. However, my Kindle Reading is able to download books at my home.

I find the electronic ink display wonderful. It looks very much like a book and is easy on the eyes. I’m glad it doesn’t have backlighting. If it did, it would look like a computer screen instead of a book.

As for the Kindle Reading’s durability, it is a sensitive instrument, just like a camera or a pair of binoculars so it should be treated with care. So far, I’ve dropped mine twice onto a stone floor from the sofa and haven’t broken it, amazingly, but that’s not advisable!

All in all, I love my Kindle Reading 2.

Early in the 19th century earth tone colors were prevalent for the hunter.  However, the emphasis was more on style and an elegant nature for a gentleman seeking social recognition rather than being suitable for a stalker.  The popular fitted pattern in its time was completely devoid of comfort or practicality.  However, legitimate hunters distinguished themselves from the woodsmen who conceded to fashion in order to display their status in society.  They demanded that the clothes be loosened regardless of style or their social status.  By the second half of the 19th century, the focus was more on a comfortable fit and materials offering protection from the elements.

Research in the 20th century told us with certainty that many animals do not see or register colors the way man does.  The size of their eyes and many other factors determine the way they see. For example, the deer is a grazing animal with night vision. Their heightened visual senses at dawn and dusk make them perfectly capable of avoiding obstacles while running through a timber in the dark.  This might also suggest that bright colored clothing is entirely appropriate and decreases the risk of hunting accidents.  But don’t forget, if the camouflage garment contains UV brighteners, you will not increase your chances of taking one home.

If you have the opportunity and good fortune to hunt for bighorn sheep, consider a few tips during the planning stages of your trip.  You will need functional, lightweight equipment including a good pair of binoculars.  Mountain sheep have vision several times sharper than man and they maneuver with ease over treacherous terrain.  The best chance for a trophy is to approach covered completely in camouflage.   What does nature have to offer in this situation?  

 Advances in technology give us sophisticated weapons, night vision binoculars, GPS, computers, video cameras and a wide selection of earth tone colored and camouflage patterned outer wear made according to a certain standard or safety requirement.  However, as state regulations are enforced to make this activity safer, it is logical to assume that UV brighteners and manmade materials are not really camouflage at all and possibly provide a false sense of security.

Do you still think of our hunting ancestors as primitive?  After all, they needed an advantage and one intelligent solution gave them an edge – camouflage.  It might have been as simple as smearing ashes or mud on their faces or hiding them behind leafy twigs.  Even in the earliest days, the hunters must have been mammoth specialists.  Spears chipped from stone found among the bones of these animals support this theory.  We also know that bones were used as weapons along with the element of surprise and various ways to lure their prey into traps.  None the less, our ancient ancestors were very good at what they did.  After all, where would we be now without their expertise?  How will the art of camouflage evolve into the 22nd century and will it have a positive or negative effect on the hunter?
