WARNING Make sure you download any pictures from your camera BEFORE removing or changing batteries, unless you have been using an SD card rather than the internal memory for photo storage. We recommend you download all current photo files for safekeeping before storing the ImageView away if you are not using an SD card in the camera, in case the batteries become depleted during extended storage. WARNING Do NOT look directly at the sun through your binoculars. Doing so may cause permanent eye damage.
Congratulations on your purchase of the Bushnell ImageView® binocular! The Bushnell ImageView binocular takes the technology of digital photography and combines it with a high-quality compact binocular. This allows you to observe sporting events, wildlife, scenic vistas or anything you would normally use a binocular for, and then save the image in a built-in attached digital camera.
