Spotting Scope + Digital Camera = PhotoScope

Carl Zeiss have built a spotting scope with a built in 7 megapixel digital camera … or maybe it is a digital camera with a built in spotting scope. Anyway it is pretty cool. The scope features a 15-45x zoom, flip out screen and Infa-red remote control.

One of these at the range would be great fun. Range reports would look great with a animated GIF of shots hitting the target!
