Focus and follow.
Itisn’t always convenient to use a tripod —
especiallyif you or your subject is moving.
With Canon’sIS binocular models there’s no need for additional equipment. For
binocularswith magnification powers of 10x, 12x, 15x and 18x, Canon offersan Image
Stabilizer system utilizing a Vari-Angle Prism (VAP). Thissystem hastwo sensors —
one verticaland another horizontal — that detect motion as well as a microprocessor
thatadjusts the Vari-Angle Prism on
each side, in a bellows-type fashion,
according to the amountof
binocular shake detected. This
providesinstantadjustment of the
refraction angle to compensate for
motion. So whatyou see through
the lensesis absolutely steady —
even when you’re not.
The legendary L Lens.
The brightred line engraved on the lens
barrelis the signature of the Canon L Lens.
L-seriesLenses are on a level above the
rest, possessing groundbreaking image
performance, outstanding operabilityand
resistance to weather and aging. Canon’s
LLenses are well known by professional
photographersaround the world for their
innovative opticaldesign, exceptional
qualityand brilliant clarity. Canon has equipped itsnew top-of-the-line model, the
10x42LIS WP, with extraordinaryL-series technology. Manufactured to provide
superior image qualitythroughout the entire viewing area, two Ultra-low Dispersion
(UD) elementson each side give you a bolder, brighter view than can be achieved
with conventionaloptics found in ordinary binoculars. With them, you’llsee more of
your subject, more clearly.
The genius is in the details.
Each Canon binocular hasbeen engineered to deliver performance that
willimpress. The state-of-the-art optical technologyfrom Canon’s
world-renowned EFLens series has been carefully adapted
especiallyfor use in several Canon binocular models,
offering unparalleled resolution. Also Super Spectra
Coating increasesimage contrast and reduces
lensflare and ghosting in many Canon
binoculars. In addition, Canon uses
Asphericalelements in several of its
designsto assure sharper focuswhile
dramaticallycutting distortion.
Technologieslike these enable
Canon binocularsto perform
atan extraordinarily high
standard.

Minimize shaking, maximize viewing.
Shaking occursnaturally when you hold binocularsfor an
extended period oftime. Wind, muscle fatigue and
even excitementcan contribute to “binocular
shake.” The more powerfulthe binoculars, the
more pronounced the shake appears. It’stiring
on your eyes, it’sdistracting, and it makes
getting a good, sharp focussimply impossible.
To solve thiscommon problem, many Canon
binocularsare equipped with Image
Stabilizer (IS) technologies. Originally
developed for Canon’shigh
performance video camcorder family,
these IStechnologies have been
brilliantlyadapted specifically for
Canon’sbinocular line.
