Higher telephoto zooms on cheap optics also result in narrow fields of view. This is is because the objective lenses are relatively small, and small aperture means not very much light gets in. You can have a very wide field of view AND have large magnification AND let in a lot of light, but the unit will be much bigger and be "all glass" as a camera guy would say, and be very expensive and heavy.

For anther analogy, take a look at a rifle scope. You can get cheap scopes with high magnification, or cheap scopes with wide fields of view, but a scope with both will cost 10x.

On another note... I wonder if these are better or worse than the ones you can get from Call of Duty: MW2?]]>Oct 28th 2009 7:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/28/minox-nv-mini-ii-makes-night-vision-pocketable/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/28/minox-nv-mini-ii-makes-night-vision-pocketable/
