    Like the others said - there is quite a range of products out there - but like everything (to a point of course) the better gear will be more expensive - better performance normally costs
    Plenty of deer shot with cheap rifles as expensive ones too - all horses for courses

    NV Gen1 starts around $1500 ish (maybe less maybe more) and then goes up from there
    Thermal - around $4000 to $5000 will get you into a good unit - Thermal is about detection really, once you know something is there - then work it out

    The thing is to work out what you expect to do with the units and how much you will use them vs your budget

    I think what some users of the gear could do is take some images (may or may not be easy with cameras) though the units and list the distances and light involved so you can see
