Great Binoculars
on March 21, 2025
Posted by: sicourtjon
from Cornwall,U.K.
I bought my Canon IS 10X30’s way back in about 2007, I still have them and they still function perfectly. I use mine mainly for quick on the go astronomy. I store mine in soft case and as added protection, in a camera case. I love them! Great vista views. Good optics and comfortable to hold.
As for the rubber binocular body going ‘sticky’, mine started to recently. I just cleaned mine with rubbing alcohol and it goes.
I would highly recommend these binoculars.

Hand grip material becomes annoyingly sticky within a short time
on November 10, 2024
Posted by: hardcore
As others have noted, I too experienced a transformation of the outer material of the binocular into a very sticky mess. I purchased and placed a material that was advertised to help people hold their hand guns more securely. It isn't pretty, but it seems to work. But at the price for this item, it should never happen at all.

Sticky Residue on my Cannon 10x30 IS Stabilizer Binocs !
on October 18, 2024
Posted by: Arch
I bought my Cannon 10X30 IS Image Stabilizer binocs in 2013. Now the coating is sticking to my fingers leaving a black tar residue on my fingers. Impossible to clean the binocs. I clean my fingers with alcohol pads.

Looking at a pair of grizzly bears our guide said "these glasses ROCK"
on April 29, 2024
Posted by: Michael Ludwig
I have had these fabulous binoculars for several decades. They've been on many backpack trips, on a 12-day rafting trip in northwestern Canada. I use them in my volunteer role as a fire lookout. You really need to experience how great a difference the image stabilizer makes--just short of miraculous. I have several other high-end binoculars, but these are my go-to set. After having been knocked around for 20+ years, they still perform as though they were brand new.

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my second pair of 10x30s. I’ve traveled with them around the world several times. Dozens of countries. Light weight. Needed another pair so I can share the experience. Tired of asking for them back. I truly love these binos.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Sticky coating, unknown as to why. Don't buy until fixes the issue.
on February 12, 2024
Posted by: Mike Sifisto
I've had these for my boat and they have been wonderful. I've owned them for close to ten years without an issue. I'm now noticing the coating has become sticky. They function fine, but the sticky shell is nasty. I'll be looking for a cure to right this wrong.

Sticky Coating
on December 5, 2023
Posted by: Peace786
from Delaware, USA
I bought it a few years ago. Works very well. But the coating has become sticky. I am very disappointed with a great company like Canon not addressing this issue and not replacing this item free off charge, because they should. It is the fault in manufacturing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
