| Pros |
Excellent optics, effective stabilization |
| Cons |
Bulky, heavy, inadequate neckstrap |
| Bottom Line |
High magnification, excellent performance and stable viewing in a handheld instrument makes this a "must-have" for astronomers. |
| Pros |
50mm objective lens for night, image stabilizer, 5min shutoff timer, quality optics |
| Cons |
high price (but comparable to other good units) no battery life indicator. |
| Bottom Line |
Go with the 15x50IS - the field of view is too narrow on the 18x50IS and they are otherwise the same. Definitely buy IS binoculars! |
| Pros |
Power Image stabilised great view awe factor |
| Cons |
heavy and big field of view for moving objects price |
| Bottom Line |
I recommend these with slight reservations which might not be applicable for your intended use. |

| Pros |
Sharp images; very good color correction; smooth and accurate focusing; water resistant. |
| Cons |
Image stabilization very good, but not "perfect"; a bit pricey; slightly heavy. |
| Bottom Line |
I find these to be an excellent product. You won't be disappointed. Optics on par with more expensive binos and IS to boot. |
