12x36 IS III

Excellent optics. Light enough for long walks. IS image detail for wildlife fantastic. At half the price of the newer model and bigger optics (36mm) .

Although expensive these are good value. Optical quality is very good with only minor colour fringing on very high contrast edges. Stabilisation is brilliant especially for people who don't have steady hands - allows you to see so much more detail. The only slight negative is the lack of object lens covers which I purchased separately. Used them for star planet and moon gazing but really bought them for a safari. They excelled at everything.

I have purchased several binoculars over the years including Zeiss. All are difficult to use. And the more powerful ones virtually useless due to shake. After reading some reviews i settled for these, a compromise between magnification and size. The very first time i used these for bird watching in my garden i focused and pressed the button and was shocked how after e few seconds everything became clear and steady. The first truly usable binoculars. The 12 x was a perfect choice as it hits the sweet spot between real life performance power and size. I have never used binoculars this much simply because they deliver. The light gathering is good, image very clear and sharp. It would have been nice if they incorporated lens cover and better eye cup covers, there is very slight colour fringing in bright light but these are minor issues. I am very pleased with the purchase and i would strongly recommend them.

The slightest touch of the stabilising button and all becomes clear! Well made, although I hope the rubber coating will not go sticky after 10 years or so. For the price, the cost-cutting bag for holding them is a tight squeeze with the strap attached, and as for the cheap and nasty thin eye covers that aren’t even joined together…. Say no more! I would have given 5 stars if they has spent a couple of pence more on peripherals.

These binoculars are just amazing. The image stabilizing is beyond amazing. The sharpness and clarity of the image is fantastic. Great for nature and stargazing. I have watched so many passing satellites and space detritus sailing across the dark skies these past few weeks. Choose any dark part of the sky, look through these and press the magic button and suddenly there's a wealth of light that you just can't see with the naked eye. Yes, it's a lot of money for a pair of bins, but for me they're worth every penny.

Good for the weight but nothing like as good proper stabilisated binoculars.

These binoculars, although expensive, really help to view distant subjects. You can see much more detail when you stop most of the judder. Quite good tech to be honest. I wish they were waterproof though.

I have had a pair of these version II of these binoculars for about twelve years and can report that the material surrounding most of the binocular's body has deteriorated to a black sticky substance. Not only does it make the binoculars difficult to handle without getting your clothing marked, but simply holding this degraded product is quite unpleasant. I would add that there is nothing wrong with the optics of the binoculars, but the amount of money I paid should have indemnified me against a substandard and presumably untried faux rubber material being used by Toshiba as I cannot see any way of remedying this major problem.

having a stabilized image for birding makes a huge difference , very happuy with my purchase

主に景色と星を見ます。今までは手持ちでは10倍.8倍.7倍.6倍でしたが、ビクセンの10倍を一番良く使います。10倍は対物レンズが42ミリで明るく見えます。しかし、届いた防振12×36はやや暗いと感じますが、防振ボタンを押すとほとんど止まって見えますので暗さは無くなるほど威力は抜群です。これが届いた夜，木星を見ました。防振ボタンを押すと4つの衛星も止まって見えましたのでこの防振を選んで正解でした。ビクセンの10倍では画像が小さい上、木星がわかるだけで手振れで衛星までは良くわかりません。固定すればわかると思います。また、10キロメートルほど離れた採石場の重機を見ましたが、ブルドーザーなどの動きが手に取るようによくわかりました。たいしたものです。これからは防振が手放せません。重さは気になりません。値段は高くても値打ちがあります。追加、欠点ですが、皆さんが書いている防振押しボタンと接眼レンズ目当てのキャップです。押しボタンはやはりスライドスイッチに、目当て部はキャップがしにくいため回転式目当てにそれぞれ発売からの5年間に改良してほしかった。重さや値段がからんでくるのかな。

Buon binocolo, senza stabilizzazione sarebbe difficile con un 12X tenere ferma l'immagine . Si vedono molti più dettagli e sembra grazie alla stabilizzazione addirittura sia più a fuoco quello che guardi. L' immagine è buona di un binocolo di marca. Non ha proprio a che vedere con un binocolo senza stabilizzazione è veramente un altra cosa.

These binoculars are the best! The adjustments for clear vision & comfort are perfect. The most outstanding feature is the stabilizing button that keeps the view stable. We use these for bird watching & will be using them when we travel to Alaska and other trips.

Excellent quality, and the stabilizer is really helpful.
