IGI 2 - Covert Strike is a computer game BTW.
Do they exist, or is the whole idea of them pure fantasy.
They seem to have a motorized variable 4-25 zoom with a perfect image stabilized picture, consistant brightness throughout there Focal and zoom range, and an image intensifieing tube all packed into a compact that fits into the palm of jones palm.
They Seem to be either a blend of these:
In terms of image stability.
In terms of Image sharpness.

In terms of compactness.
Does such a pair of binoculats exist in the real world, or can i write them of like i can with
"Zoom & Enhance"
In the REAL WORLD i guess you can't have have a gadget that does it all, i have just bought a pair of sakura mega zoom:
1.They are more obvious than George Bushes Stupidity, in terms of stealth.
2. They weigh a ton.
3. And anything slightly above the base zoom of 20X and they are difficult to hold steady.
~but~
1. I can just about see the hairs on your face from 500ft away w/ tripod, a clear sunny day, and the max zoom.
2. They look kind-of cool.
3. They are a big poro-prism, so they make a BIG impression, and they almost make up for there cumbersome goliath size.

I don't know, i dont think so, but i do like wildlife,
excpet when a swan randomly hisses at me.
Time will tell if i am.
I just want to recreate IGI 2 in real life i think.
Recreating any computer game, or simulated fantasy, in real life appeals to me because real life sucks.
