English term or phrase: power optics
Bl.a. til bruk i måleinstrumenter. Fant denne definisjonen, men er ikke helt sikker på om den er til hjelp: http://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/Power Optics

Eksempel på bruk:

"These 8,10 & 12 power optics boast many features found in a larger mid, or full size binocular, but delivers the convenience of a pocket-sized binocular" http://www.mojosgear.com/mojos/outdoors-optics-c-4_70.html?s...

"The Runner 24 has clear, bright 24 power optics for easy staff readings" http://www.ja-gps.com.au/Leica/leica-runner-24x-auto-level/

Explanation:
Usikker på om dette er den beste oversettelsen, men forklaringen skal hvertfall være grei (fra referanse):

Magnification (power)

Binoculars are commonly described by using a pair of numbers, as in "7x50" or "8x25." The first of these numbers refers to the magnification offered by the binocular. Magnification is why most people buy a pair of binoculars. In the examples above, "7x" means the binocular makes whatever you look at appear seven times closer than it does to the unaided human eye. "8x" means the binocular makes whatever you look at eight times closer than the unaided human eye. "10x" makes things look ten times closer, and so on. The first number used to describe binoculars always refers to their magnification. Common binocular magnifications are 6x, 7x, 8x, 9x, and 10x.

Forstørrelsesgrad er nok bedre hvis dette i det hele tatt er relevant for det du driver og oversetter!

forstørrelse optikk


Explanation:
"12 power" menes vel med "12x forstørrelse" og "optics" er det samme som "kikkert" eller "optikk", så uttrykket "power optics" i seg selv har ingen mening siden "power" er en benevnelse. "Optikk" er greitt å bruke iht ordnett.no.
Dersom "power optics" står for seg selv, kan kanskje "forsterket optikk" brukes.
