Canon 10X30 Image Stabilization II Binoculars Black

To bring the action closer, experience the difference with Canon’s compact and versatile 10×30 IS II. Whether looking at the feathers of a bird, the expression on a child’s face as they run to catch a fly ball, or a row of skyscrapers across the river, these lightweight and portable binoculars are ideal for travel, bird watching, sports, concerts and much more. With 10x magnification and bright 30mm/1.18 in. objective lenses, these binoculars perform wonderfully both indoors and out. Featuring improved Canon Image Stabilization (IS) technology for smooth, extended viewing without the need for a tripod, these binoculars have Canon optics and corrective technology for sharp, colorful and bright, virtually distortion-free viewing. With all-day use in mind, the 10×30 IS II are designed to be comfortable even when wearing glasses. With an improved, low reflective exterior coating that helps minimize glare from the sun, they’re less conspicuous when viewing wildlife, in the stands at a stadium or anywhere else where distracting reflections might occur. Energy efficient, with environmentally friendly-glass, these can be the perfect binoculars to bring along, everywhere.

Excellent Performance, On the Go

Canon’s 10×30 IS II are lightweight and compact, perfect for bringing along on a wide range of activities: hiking, going to the theatre, sports events, concerts and more. But don’t let their compact size deceive, as they incorporate a sophisticated Image Stabilization (IS) system, Canon optics and improved electronics for efficient, brilliant performance no matter the user, no matter the application.

Improved Technology for Stunning Performance

To maintain stable images at high magnification, without the need for a tripod, the 10×30 IS II feature Canon’s Image Stabilization (IS) technology for performance on par with Canon’s EF series of lenses. Vari-Angle prisms are placed between the front lens and the main prism. When the binoculars’ gyro sensors detect movement, vertical or horizontal, they direct these prisms to compensate and correct for external shaking for smoother panning. A high performance microcomputer with advanced algorithms not only enhances IS operation, it helps provide shorter startup times and more efficient energy consumption. This means a comfortable, stable view that can be easy to maintain, whether standing on a mountain tracking a bird in flight, looking out the window of a moving vehicle or watching the pitcher wind up to throw a strike.

High Magnification, Compact Size

Canon’s 10×30 IS II feature a refined optical system designed to provide a 10x angle of view with remarkably compact optics. With an objective lens effective diameter of 30mm/1.18 in., the 10×30 IS II offer a great balance between brightness and portability.

The Perfect Combination of Compact, Efficient Binocular Design

Canon’s 10×30 IS II use a Porro II Prism design. Because both the front lens and the eyepiece use convex-shaped glass, the binoculars’ design necessitates a prism system between the front objective lens and the eyepiece to flip the otherwise inverted image that would appear. Porro type prisms are a perfect fit for the 10×30 IS II because they deliver clear, bright images at high magnification with excellent sharpness and minimal light falloff.

A Beautiful, Wide Field of View

The 10×30 IS II feature doublet field-flattener lenses in the eyepieces. Doublet lenses correct curvature of field, the image quality degradation typical at the edges of the image frame. Thanks to the doublet field-flattener the 10×30 IS II can display a sharp, even view, corner to corner.
