I have a pair of Canon 15x50IS binoculars which I very much like for astronomy. However, please do not "Rinse binoculars in running freshwater"! Wipe them with a damp (not wet) cloth. These binoculars are not waterproof. I know Micheal is quoting from Canon's sales literature but be warned that Canon have on occasion refused to accept water damage as a warranty repair despite their sales spiel.
