The dimension sizes on this model are 7.8 x 2.28 x 7.01 inches. It doubles its worth by having the capability to snap a picture and save it onto your SD card.

Image quality
You can expect the image view binoculars to provide a resolution capped at 640×480 pixels. Unlike the Bestguarder NV800 7×31, the binoculars provide 10x magnification, so you can close in on the sights you want to see. There is a remote shutter cable that you can use when you need help taking pictures while it’s on a tripod mount. The field of view is set to 290 Ft at 1000 yards.

Ease of use
There is a limited amount of controls on these Bushnell Imageview devices, so it will be easy to learn. On top of the binoculars is a dial that allows you to magnify your view. There is a camera button and power button located on the top as well. There is barely 8MB of flash memory available, so you must insert a memory card into the SD card slot if you want to store any of your pictures. You can connect these binoculars to your computer and access the pictures from there. If these features are not what you were looking for, you may want to take a look at the Fujifilm XQ2 or the Panasonic Lumix GX80.
Battery life
As long as you have a couple of AAA batteries, your binoculars can stay powered up as long as you need them. You can expect to continuously use the binoculars for about 5 hours on a couple of batteries.
Durability
This product is not waterproof, so don’t take it for a swim. The weight of these Bushnell binoculars is about 10 ounces, so they should be easy to carry around, and you can fit them into practically any bag making them easier to care for. One sure miss was capping the maximum upgradeable storage to 1GB, which means that about 250 pictures will be cut before you have to transfer them to your computer. If you would like to see what some of the competitors offer, the Gosky 10×42 Roof Prism Binoculars encases its product in rubber armor.

Bushnell 111026 ImageView Wrap-Up
While the Bushnell 111026 ImageView could have used more expansion as far as internal and external storage goes, it still provides 10 times magnification for whatever sight you are looking at and can link up with your computer via USB port when you want to manage the digital imaging content you have created.
