Noah Posted July 10, 2002 Report Posted July 10, 2002 Just wanted to tell anybody that has a Radio Shack nearby that they have some very cool binoculars for $99. They are Meade 8x22 binoculars. Not good for astronomy, but the cool part is that they have a digital camera built in. It has a resolution of 680x480( I think that last # is right). Not very high, but it will make pretty good 5x7 pictures. It will hold 45 pictures, and it connects to the computer with USB. The camera also has 8X optical magnifacation, so you can take a picture of what you see in the binos. I have tryed them out some, and they work very good in daylight, but not inside unless you have quite a bit of light, and they can't focus closer than about 20 feet. Overall, they are an awesome deal. Noah
Eugene Posted July 10, 2002 Report Posted July 10, 2002 Good info, Noah...thanks! The owl and eagle visiit frequently, often perching in the weeping willow some 30 feet distant. They enjoy the communication; should make great pictures.Eugene
