Why are image stabilised binocs so expensive?
In Response To: Image Stabilized Binoc's ()

Low cost cameras have pretty decent stabilisaiton.
My fairly high end Nikon zoom lens with image stabilisaton cost less than $700

When I look through the viewfinder in my $250 canon camera with imae stabilisation turned on, the impovement over non stabilised is significant.

So why do stabilised binocs cost so much?
