2.0 out of 5 stars Weak Bushnell Instant Replay, September 22, 2007

My review for the will be short and disappointed for the Bushnell Instant Replay 8x30 Binocular 5MP Camera.

Pros: compact and light, binocular optics are good, video is of middle quality, added SD card capable

Cons: camera optics very poor, it is not a true through-the-lens camera though advertised as so, relies on a separate focus free separate camera for photos and video, very hard on rechargeable batteries (mine lasted only 9-10 minutes), and LCD screen is too small (which is needed for many adjustment settings during shooting) and easily wasted out in sun light.

I cannot recommend this binocular and camera combo. I ended up sending it back, which the seller promptly refunded all but 10 percent of purchase price. I justified my return by stating, "The item had too many negatives to justify the expense."

As binoculas this gadget does the job but as a camera is way far. The colors are very saturated and I had to spend a lot of time trying to fix them with different digital software. The image gets distorted quickly by the movement. Maybe using a permanent tripod. I tried the different light settings and the result is not much better. I am going to return them. If your are thinking to buy this product search for other consumer reports. I only found one and it was negative. But I did look for them after I bought the product.Don't make the same mistake

Don't purchase these binoculars!! I'm in the process of returning my second pair. I called Bushnell about the camera not working properly and they said to return them because they were defective. Well, I just got my second pair and they do the same thing. Bushnell said maybe a bad shipment went out. Picture looks OK in the LCD screen, but when you try to replay it, it's all blurred lines. I've tried everything I can think of because I thought it might be me, but no. Also batteries went to just 2 bars in a matter of minutes. I tried 3 kinds and all were the same. Luckily the seller has been very helpful with great customer service. I'm going to purchase a good zoom digital camera instead, which is what some of the reviews recommended in the first place.
