A long time I was looking for a good pair of binoculars, 15x50 and 18x50 am met with the Canon Image Stabilizer (was with other manufacturers to find anything comparable). Did the Canon 18x50 now tested for about 3 months and on several occasions, am thrilled genuine. It is very suitable for the observation of stationary and moving objects (such as landscape, aircraft, birds, etc.). The magnification is fantastic, we discover details that were not visible with standard 10x50 binoculars. The handling is very good and does not require acclimatization. Positives: -liegt comfortably in the hand (despite or because of the weight and shape) -Bildstabilisator Works very well (sometimes initially slight tremor in the picture) -klares image -also suitable for eyeglass wearers, fold only the rubber eyecups -easy handling Negatives: -very clear the bag, the bag or whatever you like to call the part well, here Canon has saved and will meet in this point of the high quality that I'm used to from Canon, not. -no caps for the front lenses -The two Okularkappen are not attached to the binoculars, might be lost
My wife was skeptical, too big and too heavy, now it is also enthusiastic about it.
