Between normal binoculars and spotting scope

I use the Canon 18x50 IS mainly for Songbird and butterfly watching. Thanks to the strong magnification and the very good image stabilization smallest details are recognizable. The Canon thus fills the gap between a normal binocular (eg 10x40) and a spotting scope (30-60x) perfect. The image quality is very good.
Important: The two Okularkappen immediately with a tear-resistant yarn, eg a braided Dacron line from the fishing shop, secure! Or a cap tinkering yourself, eg from 3mm neoprene from the scuba diving business (as an adhesive is a contact adhesive). For transportation and storage I use a Tamrac camera bag 5533, of the glass beige bag is connected unzureichend.Tamrac 5533 Adventure 3 bag gray / black
