Get 18x closer with superb Canon quality

Superb quality, high power binoculars with 18x magnification and Canon precision optics featuring an Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) lens element to reduce chromatic aberration and the Super Spectra lens coating that delivers vivid, high contrast view with accurate colours.

 

Built to withstand harsh weather conditions

Enjoy excellent viewing in harsh weather conditions thanks to weather resistance to JIS 4 specifications. The rugged build quality features a rubber finish to withstand the harshest conditions, making these binoculars ideal for heavy-duty use.

Super steady bright view

Enjoy remarkably steady images thanks to Canon's Image Stabilizer (IS) technology, which counteracts a wide range of different types of shake and movement when viewing hand-held, or from moving vehicles or boats. These bright binoculars feature a large diameter 50mm front optic for a bright field-of-view.

Spot your subject easily with a beautiful wide field of view

Spot your subject easily and experience a beautiful 60.3° apparent wide field of view with clear, flat, low distortion from edge to edge thanks to the Porro II prism optics and doublet field flattener element.

Understanding: Magnification

Understanding magnification, typically denoted by a number followed by an "x" (e.g., 8x42), is essential for choosing binoculars suited to specific activities like birdwatching, hunting, or stargazing.

Higher magnification offers a closer view but may sacrifice field of view and stability, while lower magnification provides a wider field of view and is generally easier to stabilize but sacrifices detailed observation of distant objects

Understanding: Field of View

Field of view refers to the width of the area visible through the binoculars at a specific distance. A wider field of view allows you to observe more of your surroundings, making it ideal for activities like birdwatching or sports events where tracking fast-moving subjects is essential.

Understanding: Objective Lens Diameter

The objective lens diameter determines how much light the binoculars can gather, directly impacting image brightness and clarity, especially in low-light conditions. A larger objective lens diameter results in brighter and clearer images, making it ideal for activities such as stargazing or wildlife observation at dawn or dusk. However, larger objective lenses also mean heavier and bulkier binoculars, which may not be suitable for all users, especially for long periods of use or travel.
