    The Sytong 384x288 sensor XS03-35 is our most popular model. But if your intended use is in the bush Id drop down to a 25mm or 19mm.
    the 640 sensor models have a wider field of view, but also a lower base magnification than their equivalent lens size 384 models. This makes the 640 models more of a jack of all trades as you can zoom in from their lower base mag without losing too much resolution.
    Sytong also does 50mm long range models but we havent imported these as they dont come with range finder. but if a customer wants one we can import.

    The big advantage Sytong customers have over pulsar is that the Sytong units rarely fail (only 2 to date), and if they did, turn around on a replacement is same week if in stock, not 6 months dealing with a Eastern European country.

    Thanks Ken,
    Im Currently Travelling back from UK at Present. Can I call you on that number on the website when im home on Friday. Predominantly Bush stalking, but also do a little bit on Farms, and occasional tops trip, so just want to check which model will suit me best.
    Cheers.

    Hey Ken, what’s the clarity like on these handhelds vs the am03-50 scope I just got off you finding the pulsar iv got isn’t cutting it in comparison

    I just bought the XS06-35LRF off Ken last week, taking it for its first outing tomorrow night, so will try and get some pics to post on this thread

    i have the sytong handheld 25 model with lrf and use the sytong ht-88 clip on night vision... it is responsible for so many kills on rabbits, possums, pigs and deer... i cant recommend it enough! for thermal i think LRF is a must also!

    A 50mm lens will have better resolution than a handhelds smaller lens. You’d need to get a spotter with a bigger lens to match the image in the scope but the trade off would be a narrower field of view and a higher magnification potentially making spotting more difficult.
