Picture Stabilization and Extra
Together with any high magnification binoculars, much users will experience frustrating picture shake. Unless fixed to a tripod, picture shake can render high magnification binoculars useless.

What do the numbers indicate?
15x50? 8x25? The two numbers used to describe any pair of binoculars are their magnification — 8x, 12x, 15x and so on — and the diameter of their objective lenses — 25mm, 36mm, 50mm, and so on.
