Unit takes terrible pictures. Shutter speed is horrible. Battery life worse than the shutter speed. Don't waste your money.

The company which fufills orders for this item has a contract with UPS that does not allow UPS to hold the item for pick up at the customer's convenience... I have better things to do than wait around all day for the UPS guy... I would not order from these people unless you know you can wait at home all day for delivery...

Unfortunatly when I opened the box and attempted to use the new device it did not work. Only the non electronic standard binocular portion functioned properly.

All the electronic portions were totally inoperable. I have since contacted the company to get a working model but have not heard anything back as of yet.

I am hoping they will provide me with a model that actually operates. Until then it is difficult to review an item that is dead in the water.

Thank you,

2 out of 5 stars Bulkier Than Expected, Hard-to-Use Buttons, & Arrived Defective   April 9, 2010

== Bushnell Image View 8x30 Camera ==

It's been frustratingly difficult to find a good or even adequate review of these binoculars anywhere on the Internet--including here on Amazon! I'd hoped to provide one, but sadly, my binoculars arrived brand new with a major defect: the display will turn on only intermittently, the binoculars won't turn off without taking the batteries out, and I've only been able to take one picture before the device's electronics stopped working.

PROS: what a great idea these are--if only they'd work properly. Excluding the electronics, the binoculars themselves are of quality construction and work very nicely with an easy-to-use focusing dial.

CONS: I received a defective model which makes me question the reliability of ANY model--strange, since Bushnell has a name synonymous with quality. I apologize that for that reason, I can't speak well to the picture-taking ability of the binoculars. I took one picture which turned out well and generally seemed aligned to my field of sight (I didn't notice any major parallax issue). But: the display flashed erratically and then would no longer turn on. I'm generally tech-savvy and tried to reset the binoculars several times, but to no avail. This after opening the package for the first time! I also noticed that the buttons to operate the display are quite difficult to push--they require a very firm push, and as they're very close together, it's easy to push the wrong button. For the brief moments it worked, I found the menu screen somewhat difficult--each screen selection requires that you cycle through to an "exit" selection which makes the menu more time-consuming and annoying to scroll through. Also, I found that these binoculars are heavier and slightly bulkier than expected--they certainly aren't as "pocket-sized" as some descriptions assert. And in taking a picture, there's (ridiculously?) no indication that you've taken it as you look through the binoculars; only the push of the button, no indicator sound. I would be very weary of purchasing these again as I question a product that's defective out of the box with no indication of physical damage.

BOTTOM LINE: The model I received was defective--the electronics, particularly the display--would not turn on or off correctly but for once. The one picture I was able to take looked okay, but was interrupted by faulty electronics. I anticipated quality from a Bushnell product, but now I'm weary. I'm afraid that unfortunately, our binocular-camera technology just isn't up to par yet!

I was unsure what binocular camera to purchase, but I did some research and found out that 8X30 and Bushnell were pretty safe bets and I was not let down. I was so excited when I received the product from 123. It arrived in three days (a day earlier than the earliest estimated delivery date) and in perfect condition. I took it out on my hike to test it out worried about blurry or low quality pictures and I was not disappointed. The pictures came out beautifully...here's a tip...take a breath and hold it when you are taking the picture and hold still for a second or two while holding down the button while taking the picture. The came out great! I am so ready to take it with me on my vacation to Newfoundland and Labrador...I can get great pics without being mauled by a moose! LOL...I have never used another set of binocular camera so I can not judge against any other pair, but it definitly has better zoom than a standard digital camera. I would highly recommend this product and this seller! I couldn't have asked for a better buying experience.
