Every so often you come across an idea that seems to obvious that you wonder why no one ever thought of it before - and if someone has done it before, why it wasn't a commercially successful venture. The
Sun Photo Binoculars are the ultimate binoculars for traveling because they have a built-in 2megapixel digital camera with an 8x zoom. There is no doubt that future models of the binoculars are already being developed to have both a higher resolution and video capabilities, since you can even find those features in mobile phones, but the idea of combining binoculars and a camera is a great one. It means that nature lovers and sports fans will not have to constantly switch back and forth between a camera and bioniculars to capture pictures of their favorite moments. Right now, Sun Photo is only available in Korea, for 370,000 KRW ($388).

You know Radio Shack had allmost the exact same thing by mead for like $40. They never sold. The problem they had and these $300 pair probbly have as well is the view you see the in bioniculars is totally different than the cams shot it takes. Plus the cam was pretty crappy.
