Can anyone tell me what this binocular specification means in easy to understand language please - 16x32 zoom

It means you will need a concrete tripod to keep them steady even with no wind! A little on the 'large' size, n'est pas?
The first figure (16) denotes the magnifying power. The second number (32) denotes the diameter of the objective lens (the big one at the other end!) in mm through which light enters the binocular.
As for zoom, well, that does exactly what it says on the tin.
Dunno about the size of em Ralph, just browsing ebay and thought I'd find out what the spec meant. I have little baby ones from the RSPB, 10 x something or other, just right for me :)
