Canon 10x30 binoculars - An overview

Thanks to the very compact and lightweight design, Canon 10x30 binoculars are the most portable binoculars to have Canon's image stabilization technology. This means they are the perfect companion for many types of traveling. They are equally great for air shows, nature trips and they make an excellent choice when visiting the race track or watching other spectator sports where distance may be an issue.


So what makes these Canon's IS Series 10x30 binoculars so unique?
Getting rid of "image shake" was a major problem with older style binoculars. But the Canon 10x30 binoculars IS series uses the most advanced image stabilizer. Everyone who has ever used binoculars at sporting events or concerts has probably experienced how much the images shake before their eyes, and you may feel that the use of binoculars is pointless. The main complaint of users for many years has been this image shake issue. Obviously, the higher the magnification, the larger the image shake you will suffer.

Generally, any binoculars with 10x magnification or above shouldn't be used for a long period of time. The best solution is the use of a tripod. As those who have used them will testify, tripods are bulky bits of kit and they cannot used everywhere. If you need binoculars over 10x magnification for bird watching for example, the most you would want to use, since you walk around lots, would be something like 7x or 8x magnification. Canon 10x30 binoculars use an active optical image stabilizer.

Two Vari-Angle Prisms are controlled by a smart microprocessor and hand shake is eliminated. Amazingly, even with over 10x magnification, a tripod is no longer necessary. They can even be used while viewing from a moving car or train and as well the light weight, there is none of the eye strain that might have made you tired. This makes it possible to use the Canon 10x30 binoculars for a long time.

Lightweight and water resistant binoculars: Excellent for use outdoor.
The bird that you were following suddenly comes close to you - the closest focusing distance changes. General, the more magnification the binoculars have, the longer the focusing distance will be. There were loads of times when you had no choice but to watch with your eyes alone as you couldn't focus in time. When you are bird watching, you are always walking around with a pair of binoculars and for that reason something light would be a great advantage. (For well rated all weather versions try the Canon IS binoculars).

Oh, did we mention the Canon's 10x30 binoculars only weighs 600 grams. That's amazing when you consider the onboard technology!
