Can't make work

I also can't make this work with either Windows XP or Vista. The Meade website is horrible for information or driver downloads. I received as a gift, and was looking here for how to make it work. Still not successful, and ready to give up.

A waste of money

I brought it with me to a day time football game and could not believe how poorly the photos turned out. I limited myself to shooting objects about 80 feet away. I took 84 images before I ran out of storage capacity and about 8 were worth keeping after...

Meade Capture-View Digital Binocular/Cam

My nephews loved getting these binoculars for Christmas.

These binoculars were a big hit with the nephews and they couldn't wait to go outside and play spy.

Lousy, disappointing

My sister and her boyfriend bought this for me for Christmas. All of us expected what was viewed in the binoculars would be what was photographed, but no. This is a camera mounted on a pair of binoculars. The camera -- and not a very good one (slow and...

Poorly Engineered

This is a poorly engineered product. The first sign of trouble was when I read the recommendation in the user's guide to remove the batteries when the unit is not in use. If you do not remove the batteries, they will discharge in 2 or 3 days. A 50 cent...

Poor Pics and Memory

The battery life is awful and if the battery goes so do your pictures. The battery compartment actually had a malfunction and camera would turn off sporadically and dump the pictures. Very disappointed in performance and value. We purchased it as a...

Capture the view but not all the detail you see

I love gadgets. This one seemed like a nice idea, take pictures of objects at a distance without the cost of an expensive telephoto lens. Well, like my mini Digicam, I was disappointed. The full specs are below, however in high res you can get 45 pics,...

Combination camera and binocular

Very narrow field of vision
