The general rule is that higher the magnification the narrower the focus and the lower the magnification the larger is the field of view.

The best magnification form a practical stand point is the magnification power of 10 and that will mean that you can actually use the binoculars with your hands as opposed using the tripod. These are less bulky also than the higher magnification binoculars.
