Canon Image Stabilizing Binoculars

Canon image stabilizing binoculars combine incredible technology with top-rated optics to bring you one of the most incredible sports optics products ever created. Binoculars are designed to magnify an image, making the subject appear closer to the observer. The higher the magnification, the closer the subject will appear. However there are downsides to high magnifications. The largest problem with high magnification binoculars is the fact that the high magnification causes a great deal of vibration and shaking of the image. In the past, the only real way to compensate for this shaking was to place the binoculars on a tripod or some other stabilizing device.

Canon recognized this problem and decided to integrate the latest image stabilizing technology into a full line of the Canon binoculars. These Canon image stabilizing binoculars (or Canon IS binoculars) feature what is known as Canon Vari-Angle Prisms. These prisms are controlled by gyroscopic sensors that detect movement and send signals to the prisms, moving the prisms to correct for small movements, vibration and shaking. Using this technology, the Canon image stabilizer binoculars can steady an image and reduce or eliminate shaking and vibration even at high magnifications!
