Digital Rifle Scopes

[skipper]

Not too long ago I peered through the eyepiece of my Canon A1 to compose my pictures. Nowdays, I look at the display on the back of my digital Nikon Coolpix P5000 to compose my pictures and can make adjustments. I can even see what my picture will look like before I press the shutter button. Elcan makes a digital scope that allows you to change crosshairs styles and size, uses infrared light to enhance low light situations and even compensates for drop at varying distances. I wonder how long it will be before everyone has a digital scope on their rifle. I wonder if we will even need to worry about spot weld, mirage or other such things while shooting. I can see the scope industry following the same path as cameras in the not so distant future. Anyone have any experience with digital scopes? I know some of our members have intimate relationships with some of the scope manufacturers. Any news on the future of digital scopes. I'm ready.

It would be nice to go out hunting and then watch the replay later at home.

I just wonder how a digital scope would handle recoil Otherwise I think the possibilities for changing reticles and even hooking a video camera would be cool. Gary

While we are at it.

I'd like the target image viewable in my shooting glasses.
