    The answer is C). 7 If you go onto the canon.com website and read that all their binoculars benefit from Powered Image Stabilizer mode. Then click on the bird-watching range and you'll notice there are 7 little dots which you can still through for the different bird- watching binoculars.

    From canon.co.uk
    "All Canon binoculars offer exceptional optical and build quality for a wide range of applications. Plus they all include Canon's renowned Optical Image Stabilizer to counteract unwanted movement for superbly steady and comfortable viewing."

    But they don't all have powered optic stabilizer. Only three do.

    I'd go with three as well. If you click on "birdwatching" they show seven binoculars they recommend. But if you look at them, you'll see that only the top three mention "Powered Image Stabilizer mode". The last four make no mention of it.

    So, you pays your money and makes your choice, so to speak! ;)

    But if you look at the spec for the remaining 4 pairs they all require batteries to power the Image Stabilisation system so are they Powered Image Stabilisation as well as the first three? So you pays your money and you takes your choice!
