Well, this isn't exactly new technology, although it's the first time
I've seen a big name optics brand produce one. But you'll note that
the binoculars aren't that powerful, and at 2.1 megapixels with 16MB
of storage, the camera is fairly pitiful for bird-related photography.
That said, for record shots of a rare bird, or to confirm a sighting
later, I can see their value.

Chris
