Amazing binoculars. I have a condition that causes me to shake, the image Stabilizing allows me to bird watch again. I wear glasses and rolling the eye cups back allow full view with my glasses on. Highly recommend these!

Incredible piece of hardware made in Japan (surprise). Worth every penny. Used for mostly astronomy. Moon is sharp edge to edge. Albeit with some aberration (false color). But not too bad. Highly recommended.

As a longtime birder, I have used and seen a lot of binoculars over the years, and I confess I currently own more pairs than I really need to pursue my hobby. I have a preference for 10x binoculars, but as I get older it does get a little tougher to hold the glasses steady hour after after.

From the outset, it becomes apparent that there is much to like in Canon's 10x30 IS II binoculars. For starters, the build quality, as expected from Canon, is terrific as the binocs are clearly solidly well constructed.

Great build; Clear and crisp optics; Comfortable to use; Well laid out controls

Ill placed eyelets making threading strap difficult

gf and I have had a lot of fun with this, great for watching bees buzz around the garden among other things.

The second I hit the image-stabilization button, the shakiness of the bird I was following disappeared and I was able to follow the loon as it flew above the surface of the water for over 100 feet.

I don't know how to describe adequately my surprise and delight when I looked through these binoculars and pressed the stabilisation button for the first time. I really did say "wow", out loud. Other reviewers have pointed out that optically these are very good glasses but not the best.

Utilising the technology behind the high-quality lenses in its cameras, Canon has set out its intentions for monopolising all aspects of visual optimisation with the manufacturer's 10x30 IS binoculars.Photographers will find these particularly useful to find potential shots when out in the field,

I wanted a pair of binoculars with a stabilizer. One reason was so I could read fuel prices down the road while vehicle is moving. When I got these and tried them at home while still, it was amazing how they steady things (like birds). I took them on the road and they work just as well.

From the moment I pulled the canon 10x30 IS Binoculars out of the rapid air freight bag (and only 2 days after ordering), I could feel that the weight and quality of the product were exactly what I was after, I put them through a few quick view tests and they were balanced and fantastic to use.
