< Q: is the loss of resolution caused by lack of phase correction less noticeable at lower mags? In other words, at low enough magnifications, does phase correction become unnecessary (no noticeable benefit?)? >

Well Patrick ,

Considering that due to physical limitations , very few , if any , conventional roof prism binoculars have been made which have larger than 63mm objectives , with magnifications usually no higher than around 15x , then I suspect the improvement is noticeable at lower magnifications , and therefore beneficial .

Regards , Kenny
