Yes, looking at some more photos, this appears to certainly be the case.
You should be able to get a camera image just pointing down the infinity
tube with something like a 7.5 degree FOV lens (e.g., 125mm on a APS-C
format digital SLR). Which you can do directly with the binoc removed (not
very convenient) or via a beamsplitter.

Another proof of infinity optics is if removing the binocular head and
sighting through it at a distant scene works as a low-power telescope
focused at infinity.
