Something new

  

 

8 power, just like binoculars, but it's a monocular.  Click a button, and what you're seeing appears as a photo on your cellphone.

The long-lens on my camera is essentially a 10 power, so this wouldn't be that much different.  I could look at a bird and shoot it with one machine instead of two.  Brilliant!  Maybe I need this!  (Too bad I didn't find out about it until after Christmas this year.)

 

Of course, it might be like trying to design the perfect car by crossing a sports car and a pickup truck and getting something that isn't as good as either, but it sounds really cool!
