Good qualty... but worth the price?
Do you really need this costly binoculars? For something around two hundred, you can get high quality binoculars with IS (Image Stabilizer)
Pros:
- Yes, top quality
- Very very clear, Image Stabilizer quite helpful when your hands are shakey
- L series from Canon are always top quality, providing you with images practically as sharp as your own eyes..
- but cons..
Cons:
- Cost.
- About one grand is a lot for binoculars
- Unless you really need this kind of clarity, stick with something around two hundred dollars

Outstanding
I have had these for over a year now. I use them at auto races and for hunting. They are a bit heavy, but you cannot beat the clear images. You can hold these in your hands and get a clear image of distant objects.

Great Product
After reading countless reviews it came down to these or the Swarvorski 10 x 42 I had the opportunity to look through the Swarvoski's and they were absolutely stunning the only problem being the lack of image stabilising. i had no opportunity to try the Canon's, no one seemed to stock them locally.

Quality System
Cannon's Image Stabilization system is noticably superior to Nikons. I can not tell the difference in the with Zeiss systems.-Zeiss is slightly more quite but bulkier. Image Stabilization technology is at it's limits at around 20x; without making them too big to carry.
Pros:
- Detailed image
- Quality Lenses
- Strong Construction
- Waterproof
- Works Well With Glasses

The clearest view from any binoculars I have ever used.
Last weekend my wife said, "These binoculars are worth every penny you paid for them" as she was watching wildlife out the living room window. Before I bought the "L" glass Canon binoculars, I went to Mike's Camera in Boulder, CO and compared the Canon 10X30 and 15X50 non-L versions.

Canon IS binoculars are fantastic
I purchased these binoculars after conducting much research on binoculars. I have looked through some others of the same magnification and supposed better quality - for the money and with the IS these bins outperformed any other hand held.
Pros:
- Reliable
- Durable
- Superior build quality
- Easy to use

Yes these are larger, bulkier and heavier than a conventional binocular but no other binocular type gives you the ability to see incredible detail by eliminating shake. I have a couple dozen binoculars from cheap to Leica and these totally obsolete them all.

Not worth the money
Optically not as good as my non stabilised Leica's but I guess the money is in the stabiliser tech rather than the optics despite the "L" designation. The cheap and nasty lens covers don't fit properly, keep falling off, are of poor quality and unworthy of an item with this price tag.
Pros:
- Stabilisers Work Well
Cons:
- Bulky
- Caps Are Cheap Rubbish
- Heavy
- Not Worth The Money

Let down...... I question these reviews on here.
I returned my pair. I expect much better. As hard as I tired, I could not get the focus perfect. Another review said the same thing. Also, to much focus float when image stabalization is activated. The image stabilization does work.
