Frequently Asked Questions
Is 12x magnification too powerful for hand-held use?
At 12x magnification, image shake from hand movement is more noticeable than at lower powers, which is normal. For extended viewing sessions or long-range observation, using the built-in tripod adapter with a standard camera tripod will give you rock-solid, fatigue-free views. For casual, shorter observations — like glassing a field or watching sporting events — hand-holding works fine once you've steadied your stance.
What does the 50mm objective lens do for low-light performance?
The 50mm objective lenses gather significantly more light than smaller 32mm or 42mm models, resulting in brighter images during low-light conditions such as early morning, dusk, and overcast days. This makes the Power View 2 12x50 a strong performer for hunters and wildlife watchers who are most active at the edges of the day.
Does the Power View 2 12x50 come with any accessories?
Bushnell typically includes a carrying strap, lens covers, and a soft carrying case with the Power View 2 12x50. The binocular also features a standard tripod adapter socket on the front hinge, compatible with most camera tripods and mounting adapters sold separately.
