Sony is giving bird-watchers — or anyone else who wants a closer look at something — a way to truly zoom in on the action with its new DEV-50 binoculars, set to ship in June. While many nature lovers and sports fans can’t put a price on what they might see through the binoculars, Sony has put a price on the actual device. It will cost $2,000. “The continual miniaturization of IT made this sort of thing inevitable,” said Charles King, principal analyst at Pund-IT, but “it’s cost will put it out of the reach of all but the most dedicated hobbyists.”
