Return To Binoculars FAQ Archive   Search the Archives What do the numbers 6x30 mean on binoculars? Answered By Brent Trumbauer, Editor 6x30 signifies the capacity of a certain binocular or any telescope. 6x is the magnification power. This means that you can see 6 times bigger the normal unaided eye can see. 30 is the resolution which includes the brightness. Lenses have the capacity to let or bar light pass through it. When a light is barred, it creates a dimmer scene. That means, the lower the number the lower the resolution. keywords: Binoculars | Binocular | Optics | Magnification | Magnification Power | Field Glasses Binoculars Dusk
