Cameras and Lenses

Brightest Images

FRIENDS,
I have learnt a thing while searching for information about binoculars which quite puts off the passion for them.
VIEWING WITH BINOCULARS OR SCOPES CAN NOT BE BRIGHTER THAN VIEWING WITH NAKED EYES NO MATTER WHATEVER BE THE APERTURE.

IMAGES ARE THE BRIGHTEST WHEN VIEWED WITH NAKED EYES.
This fact really makes me disappointed.
Is it true?
if it is then why so much hype about light gathering power of binoculars and scopes.They can't be brighter than your eyes!!

ANY REPLIES??

My eyes haven't quite mastered the X8.5 magnification yet, so I'll stick with my bins thanks.

It may be that the benefits of the light gathered by the objective lenses is not easily perceived in daytime. Dusk is a better time to appreciate the extra brightness binoculars bring. Birds lost in the dark jump into life through binoculars.
