The Right Choice
(5 out of 5) by Hermann K. Siegl on Jun 27, 2007 (LINCOLN, NE USA)I was thinking of geting the 10X version. It made more sense to have image stabilization with the 12X version and I could not afford the Nikon 14X.
I was happy to find out that the Canon 12X36 IS II takes AA batteries rather than the expensive 3 Volt Lithium batteries used in the older model. Everyone that had a look throught the Canon 12X36 IS II binoculars was impresed with the image stabilization. No regrets.

Mountain and celestial views
(5 out of 5) by Donald Mccorkel on Mar 25, 2007I like to view the mountains from 4 to 30 miles from my house and these are perfect for this. The IS works great, without it, I would need a tripod to see what I'm seeing. Also great for moon viewing.

Brilliant Bino's
(5 out of 5) by Neil F. Woodward on Feb 15, 2007 (NZ)These binoculars exceeded my expectations, they are powerful with great clarity of vision even in relatively low light conditions. They are comfortable to use and lighter than any quality binoculars that I have used.
And then we have the image stabilisation - absolutely brilliant.
If you are looking for quality and ease of use and don't mind paying for it, go for a pair of these.

stabilized binoculars
(5 out of 5) by Anthony Perry on Apr 5, 2008 (CA, United States)I love these binoculars. They are lightweight and have good magnification, a nice compromise. The optics are excellent and the stablization is rock hard. Very impressive. They arrived with a three year warranty, covers for the eye lenses, soft case and strap.

Almost too large to take to the opera.
(5 out of 5) by John Richard Hendricks on Feb 28, 2006 (NCH OH)Though a little larger than is sometimes convenient, the quality of the image makes these binoculars worth carrying.
The stabilazation makes all the difference in the world - wouldn't be without it.
