how clear is the image at max zoom?

It is pretty clear depending on conditions. If you have shot a few rounds and your barrel is hot the heat will destroy the image. It is powerful and you can see the heat through it on a hot sunny day

I can see the vanes of a black oak leaf at around 150 yards. At around 300 yards I can clearly see the ridges and gaps in the bark of a cottonwood tree. This an excellent scope that adjusts so well and is so clear a sight picture that and I recommend it to everyone looking to buy a scope.

This scope is weird. When I first got it in the mail, I went outside with just the scope and played around with the magnification. Around 18/20x, the sight picture would be slightly blurry, like someone who is slightly nearsighted. However, when I took it to the range, at 50 and 100yds, I could see my target paper just fine. I think the problem is using the 40x magnification to look at something thats only 30 ft away will cause a blurry image.I've only used this on my 10/22 and does not require a lot of adjustments between trips to the range. I would recommend this scope, but only when it's on sale. This scope is weird. When I first got it in the mail, I went outside with just the scope and played around with the magnification.

At maximum optical zoom, and the lowest resolution (640 X 480), an object ~2 mm wide appears as a 10 cm picture on my laptop screen. This is a zoom of 50x. If you then collect an image at the highest resolution (1600 X 1200), this is 2.5 times the zoom before, or about 125X. Depending on the pixel count of your computer screen, the numbers above may vary somewhat, but that should give you a ballpark of what to expect.

I have not verified if it is 720 HDp per the specs or not. However, I can say that the images come up reasonably clear within less than 2 ft when the snake cam is through a buried pipe and the LEDs are on.

8x Optical Zoom and Up to 16x Clear Image Zoom... I think that is the digital zoom

What's important to me, is that the sensor is only 5 mp. For what it's worth the max 2D resulting JPG file is 6,016 x 3,384 = 20.4mp.

The picture quality wasn't good without zoom, it only gets worse with it. I would guess about 5x but it was blurry, not crisp at all.

I've noticed no such imdedance of clarity. The screen is as crisp as you could ask for. I love mine.

Screen is clear. Assume image stabilization works because I have honestly not gotten a bad picture from it. Highly recommend this camera!

I can't answer David's question, but I have one of my own. From day one I have never had a clear picture. There are lines moving through the screen all the time. The darker the back ground the worse the lines are. Thanks

They are both digital zooms, the "clear image" zoom is a 2x extension, the digital goes up to 160x. Basically the more you digital zoom the worse it gets. I would try to see one in action to see if the degradation is acceptable to you. There are some posts on youtube as well that may help. I would have thought with a 20mpix sensor, they could have "zoomed" in on the sensor with little degradation but there is some loss even in the "clear image" zoom. You'll have to look and see for yourself how much quality loss you are willing to give up.

why do the pictures come out so bright. is there a setting that has to done

I haven't noticed it. The only image related issues I notice are the blurring of the corners of the screens (due to the nature of the adjuster glass that you must look through). The image is actually VERY clear and sharp in the center.

I can hold it a couple inches from my hand and the image is clear. With the camera laying on the workbench, everything it sees looks clear.

It's clear up about 15-20 ft. You can see further but it's hard to make out the object because the image gets smaller as you look further.

It's actually controlled well. At it's widest aperture you'll see it. This is a known issue, like on the Zeiss. But it's something that can be fixed in Adobe. The lens is a good deal and worth it.

It's pretty decent! It's a bit grainy, and you can only zoom in like once before it gets into super gross and grainy, it has a blue tint to photographs. but here's a regular zoom pic with no filters:https://www.dropbox.com/s/itdukx4wzj3u3j5/2013-06-22%2013.30.41.jpg

Image clarity is good out to about 150 but 300 would be questionable. I use it for deer hunting out to about 100-120 with good success.
