[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 156380, member: 7"] [b]Re: DUMB Question... really dumb magnificcation question.. but PLEASE[/b] [ QUOTE ] I have wondered this for years but never had courage to ask. Is magnification affected by objective lens size For example: 4-14X40 4-14X56 Would the 56 have greater magnification because in essenc you are multiplying internal magnification by Objective lens size. Is that correct thinking? Thanks - Rod [/ QUOTE ] Objective size does not effect magnification, and it does not effect field of view. Field of view is determined by eyepiece diameter, and eye relief... longer eye relief, less fov. . [/QUOTE]
