Bushnell Instant Replay Binoculars Reviewed

binoculars_instrep.jpg imageSomeday someone is going to get one of these digital camera/binocular hybrids right and have a hit product on their hands, but manufacturers' continual insistance to make the camera lens seperate from the binoculars really futzes up what could otherwise be a fantastic product. Take these Bushnell Instant Replay binocs, for instance, as reviewed by KC's David Twiddy. It's not a cheapo device - Bushnell is a major binocular brand - but it still doesn't take images of what you're actually seeing through the binoculars (and has a crappy shutter speed, too, it sounds like), so no matter how many flip-up LCD screens and Compact Flash slots it has, it's still fundamentally flawed. (Thanks, JP!)
