The telegraph article says that these were launched at this year's bird fair - anyone see them and have a comment ??

Purely out of curiosity.

Over priced, over hyped and soon to be over here from November apparently. If you like gloomy poor moving 3d images supposedly in hi def then they will be for you if you have two grand to spare!:-C

I tried them at the BirdFair - like having two old camcorders bolted togther and just as heavy. Viewfinder image is poor and hard to pick out bird in shrubby background - another problem I find with camcorders.
No way they could compete with alpha binoculars for clarity - the 20 zoom is interesting, as is the ability to record things.
BIG and clunky - I imagine they will eat up batteries.

They WILL be the way ahead but I guess I'll wait 20 years until the technology is right.
