Highlights: Lens-Shift Image Stabilization Field-Flattener Lens System Super Spectra Multi-Coated Optics Normal and Powered IS Modes Simple 2-Button User Interface Large Center Focusing Wheel Fold-Down Rubber Eyecups Runs on Two AA Batteries Weight: 27.5 Ounces The Canon 10×32 IS Image Stabilized Binoculars employ a lens-shift system that uses a combination of a vibration gyro-mechanism and microprocessors that detect and counter the appearance of hand-shake by moving the internal lens assembly to make the image appear steady. Two IS modes allow the performance to be tailored to the situation: Normal IS is ideal for moving or multiple subjects, while Powered IS improves the stabilization when observing a single stationary subject. An intuitive two-button user interface makes choosing the mode simple and easy. The IS runs on two included AA batteries, and when not using image stabilization, the optic will operate as a conventional pair of binoculars. Optically, the binoculars are built with traditional Porro prisms and an integrated field-flattener lens that corrects spherical aberration for distortion-free views, especially at the edges. Canon’s proprietary Super Spectra Coating is used to limit color bias, lens flare, and ghosting; while maximizing light transmission, color rendition, clarity, and contrast across the entire visible spectrum. With this new IS system, the close focus distance has been drastically reduced versus earlier models that use a different IS mechanism.
