Bushnell Binoculars Image View 8×30 (118328)

Why simply watch birds, scenic expanses, or sporting events through your binoculars when you can capture the majesty or action in 720p HD resolution with the Bushnell 8x30mm Imageview Digital Camera Binocular? Combining a compact binocular with an HD digital camera you can simply press the perfectly placed ‘snap’ button to take a still or start/stop a video. With a native 5MP resolution, and up to 12MP interpolated, the camera settings can be adjusted to capture the best shot including image quality, scene selection, ISO settings, and many more. Files are saved as JPEGs to either the on-board memory or an SD card, and can be transferred to your Windows or Mac by simply plugging the included cable into a USB port – no drivers required. To help keep images crisp and clear, a miniature tabletop tripod is included as is a remote shutter release cable.
