values for apparent field of view
With the conventional method used previously, the apparent field of view was calculated by
multiplying the real field of view by the binocular magnification. After revision, Nikon's
figures are now based on the ISO 14132-1:2002 standard, and obtained by the following
formula:
tan ω' = τ x tan ω
Apparent field of view: 2ω'
1,000m
Real field of view: 2ω
Magnification: τ
125m
For example, the apparent field of
2ω' = 63.2°
view of 8x binoculars with an 8.8°
Hard (H) type
real field of view is as follows:
2ω' = 2 x tan -
(τ x tan ω)
1
= 2 x tan -
(8 x tan 4.4°)
1
= 63.2°
Referring to the ISO 14132-2:2002 standard that was established at the same time as the
abovementioned ISO 14132-1:2002, Nikon has determined that wide-viewfield binoculars
must provide an apparent field of view over 60°.

Note: Nikon has adopted a calculation method based on ISO 14132-1:2002, and therefore, values for
the apparent field of view have changed from those previously stated. For details, see page 44.
