Review Summary

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. I haven't tried the other Canon models but these 10X42L models are just absolutely clear and sharp with a wide angle of view, too. What good is any hi-power binocular if you have to carry around a tripod in order to eliminate shake? These are almost like having your binoculars on a sturdy tripod without a tripod! Don't wait...just do it...buy these. You won't be sorry. You can't do better for even twice the price.
