Hey Wanderer and Ronald, it is so awesome that you guys figured this out, especially since you have a mechanical connection using the threads so it is repeatable and secure. I hope you try it and let us know how it works. This would make the IS bins twice as useful, possibly better than carrying a spotting scope. Might have to give them consideration for the future. Please let us know how it works out.
The credits go to Wanderer for his expertise on TC's which I know nothing about, and to you as well since you started this very interesting thread in the first place, Statestat!
There's a lot to say in favour of the IS bins; the Canon 18x50's have already replaced my scope, they're awesome but that's just my opinion,
as I do like to see birds as they are in the books: big and clear. :t:
Search the Canon forum, maybe you'll get binhungry...:eat:
This thread has led me into a new direction that I wasn't aware of.
Maybe I'll get the 15x50 IS's or the 10x42 L IS's sooner than I thought necessary. We'll see. I have to have some outstanding lowlight bins as well.
My budget requires some compromise thinking, as in Canon 15x50's, or I'll get a specialized big aperture bin for my night prowling and the Canons have to wait.
I don't know what to decide, but as it took me two years to decide to buy the big mag Canon, I'm not one who rushes things. :cat:
Best regards,
Ronald
