A combination we have all been waiting for.

 

The optics of the binoculars are superb (what else would you expect from Meade?). The overall feel of the binoculars is heavy, but not too heavy. In other words, it is built like you would want your car built--like a tank. This is a very easy devise to...

A great second generation camera/binocular combo that meets my expectations

Could use stabilization for camera alone or both bino/camera. Also, better battery holder

Battery cap broke

 

Binocular quality is excellent. Camera resolution is excellent. Camera was not intuitive and instruction manual was weak. Batteries are held in place with a cheap plastic part that is pressed in on both sides to remove batteries. When I first saw the...

The binoculars and camera match or exceed any competitive product

Battery cap is flawed and will break

A Bad Idea Done Wrong

 

Don't waste your money, buy a digital SLR camera or a zoom lens point and shoot instead. Although it might look cool, the casing is cheap plastic. The battery door pops off and on, and the LCD screen is flimsy.The whole thing is entirely too bulky and...

It looks interesting. Acceptable optics

Cheap Quality, Impossible to Hold Steady

WHY in God's name they didn't put in a tripod mounting hole

I figured almost everthing out without reading the manual

It does work but . . . .

 

This second generation integrated binocular digital camera does make some firsts: It is a true 2 megapixel camera which can interpolate up to 3 megapixels. Now there's enough resolution to see something and have enough pixels to work with in a photo...

True 2 MP sensor. Capable of some good shots. Excellent PC I/O

Poor light handling. Very sensitive to shake. Not stable
