Designed for birdwatching, nature observation, marine use and astronomy, the Canon 15x50 IS All-Weather Image Stabilized Binoculars combine powerful magn™ magnification with Canon’s proprietary Vari-Angle Prism Image Stabilizer system for steady, comfortable viewing.
With 15x magnification and large 50mm objective lenses, these binoculars deliver bright, high-contrast images across a wide field of view. The built-in stabilization system offers a ±0.7° correction angle, helping to compensate for hand shake, while dual gyro sensors ensure quick response and smooth correction. A conveniently placed push-button allows easy activation, letting you stay focused on your subject.
Advanced Optical Performance
The optical design features one ultra-low dispersion (UD) lens and doublet field flatteners, supported by Canon’s Super Spectra coatings for clear, distortion-free viewing. This produces consistent sharpness across the entire 3.7° real field of view, even at higher magnifications.
Built for Real-World Use
The rugged, rubber-armoured body provides a secure grip and JIS level 4 water resistance for outdoor conditions. Ergonomic twist-up eyecups, right-eye dioptric adjustment (±3.0), and a wide interpupillary range ensure comfortable viewing. A standard 1/4"-20 tripod socket is included for extended observation sessions.
Even without stabilization enabled, the binoculars operate fully, making them reliable in any situation.
