Feature	Your Selection	Description
Size:		This is the physical size of the binoculars - compact binoculars tend to have objective lens diameters of less than 30mm and full size binoculars are around 42mm
Min. Objective Size:		The minimum diameter of the objective lens - similar to the Size of the binoculars, but this does not take into consideration the size of the body and you can be more precise.
Max. Objective Size:		The maximum diameter of the objective lens - use it in combination with the Minimum objective lens diameter above to isolate the exact size of binoculars you are looking for.
Magnification:		This is the magnification of the binoculars - remember for many uses the biggest magnification is not the best!
Prism Type:		Do you want binoculars with a Porro prism or Roof prism design?
Fully Multi-Coated:		Must the binoculars contain multiple layers of anti-reflection coatings on ALL air to glass surfaces?
ED Glass		Should the lenses on the binoculars made from Extra Low Dispersion Glass?
Waterproof:		Must the binoculars be sealed and 100% waterproof?
Image Stabilization		Must the binoculars have some sort of Image Stabilization? (like what you find on the Canon IS Binoculars for example)
Close Focus:		This is the binoculars minimum close focusing distance.
Focus Free		Most binoculars come with a focusing wheel, but some don't have one and are always in focus - often called fixed focus, focus free or self focusing binoculars.
FOV:		The Field of View of the binoculars is expressed as the width of the view that you see at a distance of 1000 yards away. More Info: Wide Angle Binoculars.
Eye Relief:		This is the amount of Eye Relief of the binoculars - especially important to those that wear glasses. More: Long Eye Relief Binoculars.
Price:		The approximate price range of the binoculars - obviously this changes over time and depending on where the binoculars are purchased.
