The authors have estimated the total apparent visual magnitude, coma diameter and the degree of condensation for comet Hale-Bopp over a 1.40-year period with 11×80 binoculars. The degree of condensation represents how diffuse or compact a comet coma is. During the study period, the comet-Sun distance, r, changed from 4.4 A.U. down to 0.9 A.U. and then back up to 2.9 A.U.
