With 10x, it is impossible to keep the image still; 8x is better and 7x is best from a kayak unless you're on flat water in a barge. Roof prism binoculars are typically waterprooof; porro not so. Not sure about these, but if you're planning to look at anything interesting for more than a few minutes at a time (wildlife, for instance) spending the extra money on a good mid-range binocular (especially if you wear glasses or want to look through sunglasses) is well worth it.
