Digital camera reviews of iWear AV310 Widescreen

Digital camera Review: 1st video eyewhere okay
Summary: 4 Stars

These are amazing. Glad I got them. Wish I had a 3D movie to try them with.

I've had these, my first pair of video glasses, for a week now. The widescreen strikes me as nicer than regular glasses. The controls are easy to use. Initially I wanted the raised characters on the buttons to be highlighted/colored: after a little use, I didn't need it. The side pieces on the glasses are too short on me and turn inward enough at the ends that they poke. The hinges move in many directions, allowing a large range of adjustments. There is no way to tighten or loosen the hinges though, so my glasses shift if I jostle them. Being able to use the AV310WA without wearing glasses, thanks to the +2 to -4 adjust, is great. My son's eyesight is a poor -8, but he says the focus is good enough to at least use it. Brightness, contrast, saturation, and hue are all adjustable and had a good range of adjustment. Sound quality was fine. The loose earpieces can be removed for when using with separate headphones (ear cup headphones may press the the side pieces in more than you like). You have to connect to the audio source yourself: there is not a 3.5mm socket to bypass the earpieces and feed the audio to your own set. Great that the set includes iPod and RCA adaptors. I ordered a separate S video connector and hard case.
