Canon 15x50 IS All-Weather Image Stabilised Binoculars

Outfitted with their own Vari-Angle prism electronic image stabilisation system, the Canon 15x50 IS All-Weather Image Stabilised Binoculars are perfect for bird and nature watching, marine use, or astronomical use. Their fast response time and ±0.7° correction angle easily compensates for the common hand-shake that can make viewing through binoculars of this magnification hard or disorientating. A single-activation button located exactly where the right forefinger naturally rests makes using them easy and allows you to focus on viewing without distractions.

For increased usage, the 15x50 IS will work as full-featured binoculars when the image stabilisation is not being used, even if the batteries are dead or removed. Optically, they are built with ultralow-dispersion (UD) glass elements and matching doublet field-flatteners, with their Super Spectra anti-reflection coatings to produce bright and clear high-contrast images without distortion across the entire wide field of view. Protecting the optics and electronics is an armored chassis that benefits from ergonomically designed grips, and a standard 1/4"-20 tripod mount socket for an even steadier view. Right-eye dioptric correction, twist-up eyecups, and a wide interpupillary adjustment range rounds out the features of these binoculars that will become your go-to optic for any outdoor activity.
