Remarks:

This is, thanks to it’s 3.2mm exit pupil (which is still not huge), the most versatile of the new Canon line of stabilized binoculars, 10×32 – 12×32 – 14×32. Much more expensive than the older 10×30 model (see separate post, https://binocular.ch/canon-10×30-is-ii/), but with even better optics (slightly too much CA) and very good image stabilization, the 10×32 appears to be more robust in wet or dusty situations thanks to sealed objectives.
