Canon 8x20 IS Binoculars with Image Stabilizer for birdwatching, wildlife and spectator sports

Enjoy a steady, high quality, handheld view of birds, wildlife and spectator sports with the Canon IS Image Stabilising 8x20 mm Binoculars, thanks to Canon precision optics and Powered Image Stabiliser mode to counteract your movement.

Ideal for birdwatching, wildlife and spectator sports, these superb quality, high magnification binoculars bring small and distant objects closer with intense clarity and stability.

Enjoy super steady handheld tracking and viewing with Standard and Powered Image Stabiliser (IS) modes, which use the same lens-shift technology as Canons renowned EF lenses. Easily find subjects with Standard IS mode then simply press the Powered IS button for a rock-steady view of static subjects.

Easily and accurately identify even smaller subjects, thanks to Canons optics. The Porro II prism design, Super Spectra lens coating and field flattener elements ensure great colour, high resolution, low aberrations and minimal distortion over the field of view - enabling clear subject identification.

Well-balanced with non-slip rubberised coating for excellent durability and premium feel, these binoculars are easy to grip when wearing gloves thanks to a contoured barrel design, which also enables a clear naked-eye view over the top.

Powered by AA batteries for up to 10 hours of continuous, stabilised use.

Comfortably use your binoculars for long periods thanks to a perfectly balanced design. The conveniently placed Image Stabiliser buttons and smooth focus adjustment ring offer easy fingertip control. The closest focusing distance of approx. 2.0m is ideal for viewing nearby subjects.

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.
