Image stabilization binoculars for stable, detailed views.
The innovative Kite Optics APC 42 16 x 42 binoculars brought to you by BINTEL redefines nature viewing.
Just as light and just as bright as conventional 42mm roof prism binoculars, but stable. And not the kind of stability you may have experienced before… but an entirely new level of stability. Observe in the strongest winds. Observe as long as you like. See details as if you are watching a film. Start watching while you are still out of breath from that long walk, and enjoy the highest magnifications without the slightest image vibration. But most important of all… Let yourself be amazed by the things you see, that are invisible with even the best standard binoculars.
2° Correction Angle
The stabilization capacity of the Kite Optics APC 42 goes beyond the suppression of image vibrations caused by wind or hand trembling. Its stabilisation capacity is 2x to 3x larger than that of other consumer stabilisers binoculars.
Kite Optics APC 42 stabilized binoculars have a millitary grade capacity stabilisation system that allows stable viewing from driving vehicles, boats, aircrafts and other unstable platforms.
Automatic Power on and Off
You won't need to remember to turn the image stabilization on or switch it back off.
The stabilized binoculars are equipped with KITE’s APC system (angle power control). Without having to switch the button, it will put the stabilizing electronics to sleep mode when the instrument is in rest position (hanging from the neck) , and automatically activate the unit when you start observing again.
This results in a huge increase in battery life and comfort of use.
120 Hour Battery Life with ACP Power Saving
The Kite Optics APC 42 binocular has 2 battery boxes. Each battery box holds 2 standard AA batteries. One battery box contains 2 functional AA batteries that will run for 60 hours. The other box holds 2 spare AA batteries. After the first 60 hours, simply switch the batteries and continue for another 60 hours.
Intelligent features such as the KITE APC system (angle power control) will put the stabilizing electronics in sleep mode when the instrument is in rest position (hanging from the neck) , and automatically activate the unit when you start observing again. This results in a huge increase of battery life and usage comfort.
And regardless of its position (rest or active), after 90 mintues the instrument will automatically switch off for energy saving.
Waterproof and gas filled - great for boating
The Kite Optics APC 42 is fully waterproof. The optical system and electronics are sealed to result in an IPX 7 waterproof rating. It can handle any kind of rain shower and can even be submerged to 1 meter depth for a maximum of 30 minutes. The system is nitrogen gas filled, to prevent internal fogging. The combination makes the Kite Optics APC 42 ideal for general boating use, whale watching, or pelagic bird watching trips.

- Highest level of magnification in the "FUJINON TECHNO-STABI Series".
- Ideal for bird or nature viewing.
- The image stabilization system with a correction angle of ±3° also allows users to see athletes and performers' faces clearly during sports events or music concerts in large venues.
- These binoculars feature ED lenses (extra-low dispersion glass) to reduce axial chromatic aberration for long distance subject observation.

Fujinon TECHNO-STABI binoculars brings the latest tech to stabilise and correct images.
Image High power doesn't need to mean shaky views.
If you've ever needed to hand hold higher power binoculars, you'll know hard it is to keep them steady, especially for long periods of time. It's even hard on a bumpy surface or on a boat. Now with the Fujinon TECHNO-STABI binoculars from BINTEL, forget for the shakes and enjoy the views!
You'll get to see high-power 16 times magnification views of birds, nature, sports, and concerts without the need for a tripod. Get in close but without the handshaking that sometime accompanies higher magnification.
The prism in the gimbal system is constantly stabilized when the electronic gyro sensor detects vibration, providing vibration correction at a wider range of angles than any other system. Views through the Fujinon TECHNO-STABI binoculars will be much steadier and clearer when you're on the go or need to follow a moving object.
Waterproof and dustproof
They're also a perfect companion for boating - the image stabilisation keeps distant view in focus even with the deck rocking under your feet during bumpy conditions. A bit of a splash or even if they fall into water won't harm Fujinon TECHNO-STABI binoculars.
Long life battery power
Fujinon TECHNO-STABI binoculars run for hours on end off either standard AA batteries that can find anywhere or rechargeable batteries. If the batteries go flat, you can still use the binoculars. It's just the image stabilisation that stops working.

Whether you're a bird watcher, sports fan or just like being out enjoying nature the Vixen ATREA II H14x42WP Binoculars serve up sharp, clear, AND stable views without the shakiness that often comes with higher power binoculars.
Built-in image stabilization
Binoculars are handy to travel with and an ideal way to look at the world around us. One problem is that as you increase the magnification to bring things closer to you, any vibrations or hand shakes and movements are also magnified. This means you'll have to concentrate on holding your binoculars steady rather than just enjoying the view.
The Vixen ATREA II H14x42WP Binoculars solve the problem with image shakes with a 2-axis gimbal control image stabilization mechanism. This enables them to effectively compensate image shifts of +/- 3 degrees at vibration correction angle (with all directions) and offers a stable field of view of the binoculars. Even micro-vibrations are controlled successfully, and you will be able to enjoy observing a glow in a bird’s eyes and a look of bird feathers in detail.
Great for Astronomy too!
At night you'll be able to spot fainter stars and astro objects that are hard to see in ordinary binoculars due to the image stabilization feature.
Two image-stabilization modes - moving objects and distance viewing
The binoculars come equipped with two anti-vibration modes that can be selected to suit your needs:
- V1 Mode: Absorbs small vibrations and jitters. (This mode is preferable to use when you want to look at a moving object.)
- V2 Mode: Absorbs large vibrations moved slowly. (This mode is preferable to use when you want to appreciate a stationary object.)
Multi-coated optics throughout
Each of the lens surfaces is coated with multilayers of anti-reflection coatings. The prisms are phase coated to reduce halation and enhance resolution. In addition, high reflection coatings are applied. These three types of optical coatings eliminate stray light and loss of light thoroughly to achieve an extremely bright and clear field of view.
12 Hour battery life with standard AAA batteries
Two AAA batteries are used for the power source. AAA batteries are available at any Coles, Woolies, 7-11 stores or servos everywhere. This means you can travel with the ATERA II H14x42WP to a local event or take them with you on a trip across the country knowing you'll always be able to find fresh batteries.
Waterproof

The technically unique mechanical image stabilisation system of the ZEISS 20 × 60 T* S ensures a perfect viewing experience: the unavoidable shake always encountered when observing with handheld binoculars can be easily eliminated at the press of a button.
Image stabilisation
The purely mechanical image stabilisation system with its gimbal-mounted spring joint and magnetic damping action works immediately at the touch of a button, noiselessly and without battery power. This results in a unique visual experience, such as you have never seen before - totally free of unavoidable hand tremor.
Extreme performance in magnification and lens diameter
The 20 x magnification provides an outstanding level of detail resolution. You can make out the finest of details when aiming at game and can be secure in your decision to take a shot. Extreme brightness is supplied by the 60 mm lens and Porro prism system
Robust mechanics
The image stabiliser is a mechanical masterpiece and naturally needs protection during harsh use, when idle or during transport. Secure, automatic locking of the moving parts when not in use and the solid, rubber armour of the metal casing serve to protect the internal optics and mechanics
ZEISS T* Coating
ZEISS T* coating is a guarantee of the brilliant, high-contrast images which you will experience above all in adverse light conditions and in the twilight. Behind it, however, there is no specific formula for building up the layers. Instead, it is a technology that is constantly adjusted to suit new glass materials and requirements, which varies from lens to lens.

Kenko VcSmart Cellarto · Made in Japan · Authorised Kenko Dealer
15× power. Zero shake. Nothing to switch.
The Kenko VcSmart 15x42 Cellarto WP reads how you’re moving and chooses the right stabilisation mode for you — panning a boat deck or locked on a perched bird. Just lift it and look. Bright 42 mm optics, fully waterproof, and 28 hours of steady viewing on a single AA.
High-power viewing that anyone can hold steady — automatically.
Auto Vibration Control Mode
It reads your movement. Then it steadies the view.
Older stabilised binoculars run a single correction mode, or make you switch by hand every time conditions change. The Cellarto system detects whether you’re making big sweeping movements — searching for a subject or riding a rocking boat — or holding subtle and still on a stationary target, then switches to the right mode instantly. The result is a more natural, more comfortable, more immersive view with nothing to think about.
Fully Multi-Coated Optics
Bright, high-contrast, true to colour.
Every lens and prism surface is fully multi-coated to maximise light transmission. With 42 mm objectives feeding a roof-prism design, the VcSmart 15x42 delivers a clean, contrasty image that holds detail into the lower light of dawn and dusk — when wildlife is most active.
One AA. 28 Hours.
Powered by a battery you can buy anywhere.
The Cellarto runs on a single standard AA alkaline cell — the kind you’ll find in any servo, supermarket or corner store, at home or overseas. One battery delivers up to 28 hours of continuous stabilisation, so a spare in your pocket is all the backup you’ll ever need.
No Auto Power-Off
Stays on as long as you’re watching.
There’s no auto-shutdown to cut the stabilisation mid-aria or mid-flight. Whether it’s the second act of a concert or a long stake-out on a distant nest, the view stays steady for as long as you keep watching.
Ergonomic Flat Design
Comfortable in any hands.
The battery compartment sits to the side, giving the body a flat, balanced profile that’s easy to grip and hold for long sessions. A simple slide switch toggles vibration control on and off — no menus, no fuss.
Concert-Ready Detailing
Considerate touches for the venue.
An easy-to-use slide switch gives quick ON/OFF control of the stabilisation, while a light-shielding slide shutter covers the pilot lamp — so no one mistakes a glowing indicator for a recording device in a darkened theatre or concert hall.
Fully Waterproof (WP)
Built for birds, boats and starry skies.
The WP body is sealed and fog-resistant, so a sudden shower or sea spray won’t end your session. Take it birdwatching, out on the water, or out under the night sky with confidence — the optics stay clear when the weather turns.
Every capability, ready to use. From the concert hall to the night sky.
- 15× magnification with 42 mm objectives for bright, high-power viewing.
- Auto Vibration Control — detects your movement and selects the optimal mode, no manual switching.
- ±2° compensation angle smooths out hand-shake, panning and deck motion.
- Fully multi-coated optics on a roof-prism system for contrast and colour fidelity.
- Runs up to 28 hours on a single, easily replaced AA alkaline battery.
- No auto power-off — stabilisation stays on for the whole performance or observation.
- Light-shielding slide shutter over the pilot lamp for discreet use in venues.
- Fully waterproof (WP) and fog-resistant for outdoor and marine use.
- Flat, side-battery design balances easily in the hand; simple ON/OFF slide switch.
- 66.3 m field of view at 1,000 m; 4 m close focus; 14 mm eye relief.
- Engineered and made in Japan by Kenko Tokina.
- Carry case and neck strap included in the box.

The Kenko VcSmart 10x30 Cellarto WP
$1,570.00
The incorporated vibration-canceller mechanism assures very stable image
Vibration by hands makes it often difficult to see clearly objects particularly at high magnification. ATERA H12x30 incorporates a vibration-canceller mechanism with a 2-axis gimbal control image stabilization mechanism. With a strong correction effect of vibration correction angle ± 3 degrees (up, down, left and right), a stable field of view can be obtained even at a high magnification of 12 times. Since micro vibration is also cancelled, it outperforms in observing details such as the shine of bird's eyes and the pattern of feathers. Also, if you observe a star, you can observe up to the darkest star as much as 1st grade than ordinary, which can not be seen with blurring.
Lightest 422g design allows easy handheld use
At just 422g, these are some of the lightest weight as binoculars equipped with a vibration cancelling mechanism.
Stamina 12 hours duration with AAA batteries
Two AAA batteries are used for power supply. Since it is easy to obtain anywhere, it is safe to observe in the field and live in remote areas.
Thanks to the long-life design of operation time of around 12 hours (using a new alkaline dry battery at 20 ° C), you can focus on observation without worrying about battery consumption. Auto power off function which automatically turns off the power after 5 minutes elapses prevents wasteful battery drain.
Clear visibility by three coatings
By applying fully multi coating with anti-reflection multilayered coat on the entire lens surface, the phase coat on the prism that reduces halation and dramatically increases resolution, and a high reflection coat that increases the brightness of the image, stray light and loss of light intensity are thoroughly eliminated for an extreme clarity in the field of view.
Ergonomically designed for excellent operability
A gentle rounded form fitting to a small hands, a focus ring that can be turned smoothly with light touch by single finger, a universal design that does not choose dominant hands, locating a battery space away from finger-touch area, all designed for holding comfort without stress. Considering loss of parts in a dark place such as a concert venue, we designed battery lid integrated.

By applying fully multi coating with anti-reflection multilayered coat on the entire lens surface, the phase coat on the prism that reduces halation and dramatically increases resolution, and a high reflection coat that increases the brightness of the image, stray light and loss of light intensity are thoroughly eliminated for an extreme clarity in the field of view.
Ergonomically desinged for excellent operability
A gentle rounded form fitting to a small hands, a focus ring that can be turned smoothly with light touch by single finger, a universal design that does not choose dominant hands, locating a battery space away from finger-touch area, all designed for holding comfort without stress. Considering loss of parts in a dark place such as a concert venue, we designed battery lid integrated.
Fashionable but simple design
Simple and smooth form gentle to hands, light beige color coordinated. It is a full-fledged mechanicics incorporating vibration-canceller mechanism, neutral design easy to coordinate to various fashion. An elegant and restless gloss feeling directs fashionable casually.
Mini-toto included
It comes with a mini tote bag type case. With a purse straw, the strap that tends to get in the way is also stored entirely. It fits neatly in the bag.

The lightest vibration-canceller binoculars with 422 g (as of November 2017 by our company survey). It is lightweight binoculars equipped with vibration-canceller mechanism. Extremely stable field of view can be obtained even with hands thanks to the powerful vibration-canceller effect. You can observe everything in detail such as the shine of the bird's eyes and the pattern of the feathers and enjoy the live feeling as watching nearby.
Features
The incorporated vibration-canceller mechanism assures very stable image
Vibration by hands makes it often difficult to see cearly objects particularly at high magnification. ATERA H12x30 incorporates a vibration-canceller mechanism with a 2-axis gimbal control image stabilization mechanism. With a strong correction effect of vibration correction angle ± 3 degrees (up, down, left and right), a stable field of view can be obtained even at a high magnification of 12 times. Since micro vibration is also cancelled, it outperforms in observing details such as the shine of bird's eyes and the pattern of feathers. Also, if you observe a star, you can observe up to the darkest star as much as 1st grade than ordinary, which can not be seen with blurring.
Lightest 422g design
allows operating by singl hand
