Excellent Performance, On the Go

Canon’s 10×30 IS II are lightweight and compact, perfect for bringing along on a wide range of activities: hiking, going to the theatre, sports events, concerts and more. But don’t let their compact size deceive, as they incorporate a sophisticated Image Stabilization (IS) system, Canon optics and improved electronics for efficient, brilliant performance no matter the user, no matter the application.

Improved Technology for Stunning Performance

To maintain stable images at high magnification, without the need for a tripod, the 10×30 IS II feature Canon’s Image Stabilization (IS) technology for performance on par with Canon’s EF series of lenses. Vari-Angle prisms are placed between the front lens and the main prism. When the binoculars’ gyro sensors detect movement, vertical or horizontal, they direct these prisms to compensate and correct for external shaking for smoother panning. A high performance microcomputer with advanced algorithms not only enhances IS operation, it helps provide shorter startup times and more efficient energy consumption. This means a comfortable, stable view that can be easy to maintain, whether standing on a mountain tracking a bird in flight, looking out the window of a moving vehicle or watching the pitcher wind up to throw a strike.

High Magnification, Compact Size

10x30 IS II

Canon’s 10×30 IS II feature a refined optical system designed to provide a 10x angle of view with remarkably compact optics. With an objective lens effective diameter of 30mm/1.18 in., the 10×30 IS II offer a great balance between brightness and portability.

The Perfect Combination of Compact, Efficient Binocular Design

10x30 IS II

Canon’s 10×30 IS II use a Porro II Prism design. Because both the front lens and the eyepiece use convex-shaped glass, the binoculars’ design necessitates a prism system between the front objective lens and the eyepiece to flip the otherwise inverted image that would appear. Porro type prisms are a perfect fit for the 10×30 IS II because they deliver clear, bright images at high magnification with excellent sharpness and minimal light falloff.

A Beautiful, Wide Field of View

10x30 IS II

The 10×30 IS II feature doublet field-flattener lenses in the eyepieces. Doublet lenses correct curvature of field, the image quality degradation typical at the edges of the image frame. Thanks to the doublet field-flattener the 10×30 IS II can display a sharp, even view, corner to corner.

Longer Operation Without Compromise

10x30 IS II

With advanced power-saving electronics, Canon’s 10×30 IS II feature a significant energy improvement over previous models when using the Image Stabilizer (IS) function. For example, when using AA alkaline batteries, the 10×30 IS II’s IS system works for up to 9 hours. The 10×30 IS II are compatible with nickel-metal hydride (NiMh) batteries as well.

More Comfortable, for Longer Periods of Use

In binoculars, the distance from the eyepoint where the image can be seen without obstruction is known as eye relief. When using binoculars, especially for extended periods of time, more eye relief can make for a more comfortable experience over a longer span of time. The 10×30 IS II have long eye relief, providing a generous field of view and making the binoculars more comfortable to look through, especially when wearing glasses.

New, Discreet Design

The 10×30 IS II have an improved external design with a matte front cover, plus an overall anti-reflective design. This is especially helpful for watching birds and wildlife, when remaining inconspicuous is a priority. A rubberized coating on the focus adjustment ring adds improved control.

Trustworthy, Excellent Optics

As with all of Canon’s EF lenses, Canon’s 10×30 IS II are manufactured with lead-free glass.
