I have the smaller ones (10x30) and they are fine for general use. But does anyone have the 18x50? If so, how are they as astro-binos? Bright enough? Well corrected? Thanks!

I've got 'em, I like 'em! I'm a beginner, so I don't have much basis for comparison. I have shaky hands, so the IS is wonderful. Without it, I'd need a tripod.

People often talk about their grab-'n-go scope. I guess that's what these are for me.
