What does FOV (field of view) mean?


FOV stands for Field of View, which is the width of the observable area that can be seen through an optical device, such as binoculars or a monocular. It is typically measured in degrees or meters and can be affected by various factors, such as the design of the optical device, the magnification, and the distance between the user and the object being observed.

A wider field of view allows the user to see more of the surrounding area, making it easier to locate and track objects. A narrower field of view provides a more detailed view of the object being observed, but makes it more difficult to locate and track objects.

Field of view is an important consideration when choosing an optical device, especially for activities such as birdwatching, hunting, or surveillance, where the ability to quickly locate and track moving objects is important. A wider field of view is generally preferred in these situations, but it may come at the expense of image quality or magnification.
