A few times recently whilst on my daily exercise I've seen things
through the binoculars which would have been nice to capture.

Also seen birds, deer, a fox, hares etc.

Has anyone used these things?

Seems like a sensible idea but not much good if the quality is rubbish
or
usability is poor.

I get far better pictures of distant objects from my Nikon P600 than I
can see through my Carl Zeiss 10 x 80 binoculars. I have the bins on my
windowsill but I usually go and get the camera if there's something
happening. I should mention that I have a very good view in that
direction.

I find that it's much easier to use the camera (with the screen) than it
is to use the bins.

You want to get a camera.

Although not quite the same but I use my zoom (24) on the camera for
viewing something of distant interest, Only downside is needing to steady
the camera at that sort of Zoom....usually on top of my wifes head.




Is she just the right height?

My wife is a little short at 4'11-1/2"


You need to trade her in on a replacement and choose more carefully next
time.
