Full review: Canon 10x32 IS binoculars
The 10x magnification Canon 10x32 IS gives a wide field of view. The binoculars also function extremely well in low light so they can be used for viewing the night sky. 32mm objective lenses with Canon's Super Spectra coating keep views as bright as possible. The coating noticeably reduces flare, glare and ghosting which boosts the clarity of the lenses.
Field-flattener lenses in the Porro-prism design prevent optical distortion. Impressively sharp views edge-to-edge make tracking moving subjects as easy as it gets.
The stabilization tech is the most impressive aspect of these binoculars though. General and powered image stabilization options give steady views when tracking fast-moving subjects, such as birds in flight), as well as keeping things steady when the view is fixed in one place. A helpful auto shut-off feature prevents the two AA batteries the binoculars require from running down unnecessarily.
Green rubber armor protects the binoculars against bumps and knocks as well as improving hand grip. The stabilization technology means the binoculars feel a little chunkier than you might expect and adds a little weight too. The Canon 10x32 IS is still impressively compact given what it offers though.

Reviews consensus: We awarded the Canon 10x32 IS binoculars 4.5 stars in our review, praising it for its impressive image stabilization, excellent image quality and rugged build. The 10x32 IS doesn't quite get a place in our best binoculars guide, as the best image-stabilized category has been filled by its more powerful and pricier stablemate, the Canon 10x42L IS WP.
✅ Buy it if: You want a feature-packed, easy-to-operate pair of binoculars with crisp image quality and game-changing image stabilization.
❌ Don't buy it if: You want a more affordable pair of field binoculars. If that's the case, we'd recommend the Celestron Nature DX 12x56 — which is almost a quarter of the price of this Canon model with a 26% saving at the time of writing.
