Canon 10×20 IS Image-Stabilised Binoculars

Canon have built on the success of their larger IS binoculars and incorporated Lens Shift Image Stabilisation from their EF lenses to create these powerful, versatile and compact binoculars. The Lens Shift Image Stabilisation cancels out any shaking caused by movement and vibration, with a vibration gyro mechanism that moves the IS lens vertically and horizontally. You can choose from either Normal or Powered IS options to get the best performance for the situation. Perfect for a long day of bird-watching, nature-watching or watching your favourite sport.

Beyond the image stabilisation performance are optical features that improve overall image quality. This begins with Canon’s antireflection Super Spectra Coating system to reduce light loss and improve image contrast across the entire visual spectrum. Next, a Porro prism optical path provides a rich depth of field to enable users to better judge distance between objects while delivering a wider field of view versus similar roof prism models. A field-flattener corrects spherical aberration for distortion-free views, especially at the edges. The binoculars run on one included CR123 battery. Designed for portability and ease-of-use, they measure in with a compact length of well under six inches and weigh less than a pound.

Optical Performance

• High 10x magnification brings distant subject in close for detailed observation and identification
• 20mm objective lenses helps to maintain a compact form factor for easy packing, carrying, and handling
• Porro prism optical path provides a wider field of view versus roof with a rich depth of field for an immersive 3D visual effect
• Field-flattener lens system corrects distortion and spherical aberration for crisp views, especially at the edges
• Broadband Super Spectra Coating system reduces colour bias, lens flare, and ghosting to deliver sharp views with improved contrast and accurate colour across the entire visual spectrum
• 6.6-foot minimum focus distance allows detailed observations of small birds, bugs, flora & fauna at close range such as at feeders, flower beds, or window boxes
• 278.25-foot field of view at 1000 yards
