Canon 12x36 IS II Image Stabilized Binoculars
Nature lovers will appreciate the low-reflectance exterior and the low-gloss front covers that help avoid disturbing birds and other wildlife. The large IS button is mounted at top and center so it's easily accessible by a finger from either hand, as is the large focusing knob, which has a reassuringly smooth action. Durable, large, rubber covers over the entire objective lens assemblies provide impact resistance. The eyepieces have large rubber eyecups for comfortable, easy viewing, and long eye relief permits users to see the full field of view up to 14.5mm away from the eyepiece lens, ideal for eyeglass-wearers.
Beautiful design You'll also be surprised at how remarkably steady objects appear. Canon's Image Stabilization (IS) technology is so effective it will seem as if your binoculars are fixed to a rigid support. Within .002 second of being shaken off the optical axis by vibration, the IS mechanism swings into action to correct the incoming light path by precisely the right amount, effectively eliminating hand-shake and deliver a steady view. You can even use these binoculars from a moving vehicle and get steady views! "IS" Image Stabilized Technology Canon 12x36 II image-stabilizer binoculars will banish image-shake forever. Not only that but, despite surprisingly compact design and low weight, Canon IS binos contain awesome power. Distant objects leap into view with intensity and clarity, and Canon has achieved a generous, 60-degree apparent field of view, allowing users to see more. Doublet field-flattener lenses also deliver beautiful, flat, distortion-free images, so you'll be surprised to see how much power is compressed into the Canon 12x36's compact-but-high-precision optics.

Average User Rating
Pretty good binoculars, but the focus wheel is really hard to turn. Maybe it will loosen up after a while. Everything else about them is good.
Not bad, but I didn't notice anything particularly special about them. They do what they're supposed to do. I mostly chose them for the price.
The eye relief on these is excellent! I wear glasses and have had a hard time finding binoculars that would allow me to view comfortably. I'll be keeping these, and will probably buy another pair when they wear out. Great buy!
I think these are very awkward to use. They're bulky and I had to buy a new case because they didn't fit in my old one because of their shape.
