With powerful magnification, oversized objective lenses, and a wide viewing angle, the Bushnell 20x50 PowerView 2 Binoculars are the ideal optic for long-range applications across vast flat terrain or basic wide-field astronomy like observing details of the moon's surface. Because of their high power, many users will experience distracting hand-shake, so to help keep the view steady the PowerView 2 can be mounted on a tripod using an optional adapter. The traditional Porro prism design has a more ergonomic and center-weighted feel that offers improved handling comfort while delivering views with a rich 3D appearance.
