[QUOTE="BillR, post: 376332, member: 462"] I tried one of those or one like it out about 4+ years ago when it was in the testing stage. A friend of mine was sent one to critique and try out. At that time I thought it was a great idea but a bit too soon as the screen was not clear enough to make out the targets very well. Since then the pixel numbers have gone up tremendously and the screens on the digital camera's are quite good so I can't say much about this one. Plus I see that the soft ware has also improved with the different reticules you can input. Plus the magnification has gone up a bit. Other than that it looks about the same. At that time we thought that in theory it was a great idea but in actual use it lacked a lot. We hunted coyotes all weekend and failed to connect with one. Finally ended up blowing up a rabbit at about 50 yds just to see what would happen and videoed it which should of been awesome but the screen wasn't clear enough to really get any of the red mist we should of seen. Really needed an upgrade in the screen and pixels bad. Conclusion was it was a great idea but was not quite ready for prime time at that time. It would be fun to play with one of the new ones and just see how much it had improved. Not sure how it would handle the pounding of the big guns either for that matter. [/QUOTE]
