I think mine was great! As long as you don't blow the pictures up LARGE they are fine. The unit is handy, the binocs adequate, the camera is super quiet and is 5x. From a deer stand I took a dozen pictures of a gray fox last season without even bringing the camera to my eyes. About two weeks before I had taken a photo of a coyote using a 35mm, what a joke. The camera had no Zoom, and the 'click' had the coyote in the next county before the film wound to the next frame. I normally carry a small pair of binocs because of Anter restrictions and I do not want to shoot a button as a doe. The 8x power of the binoc/camera works great and while I'm looking I can snap a photo. Unfortunately I lost the camer in July, NO you didn't its just misplaced, no you lost it....
