Best Answer

The field of view DIMS as you go to a higher power -- here's a basic explanation: Each time you increase the "power" of a microscope, you are looking at a smaller and smaller area. The LIGHT from this area gets evenly divided across your entire field of view -- so you are actually seeing less area and therefore, less light in your field of view.
