Designed for compact cameras and camcorders, the "Exmor R" sensor relocates the photo diodes above the support circuitry, maximizing the light gathering area per pixel so you can shoot with better results in lower lighting conditions. Geotagging with built-in GPS receiver A built-in GPS receiver makes the DEV-5 an ideal choice for travelers. The receiver gives you the ability to view your current location on the viewfinder LCD map display, as well as "tag" your shooting locations. Tagged videos and still images can be reviewed and played back once downloaded to your PC using the supplied PMB (Picture Motion Browser) software3.

Both models offer seamless zoom from 0.9x to maximum magnification so users will find it easy to frame their subjects. With Autofocus, the subject will remain sharp in view through zooming unlike conventional zooming binoculars.
