Any thoughts? Mainly for deer at 300-500 metres, semi open country, or big slips. Cheers

@55six would be the man to talk to.
Yep 55six. Got a sytong unit from Ken and can’t believe how many more deer I’m picking up, great piece of gear and great service.

As the others have said Ken is great to deal with and I was not disappointed with Sytong’s performance.
As above :thumbsup:
Solid response for the Sytong. No hik-micro fans? Or others?
I think the service sells Sytong, plus they are good. Ive got a Hik clip on thermal and there is nothing wrong with it.Quote:

I have the Pulsar Axion XQ30- got it second hand for cheap.
Not bad, probably better out there for the money but if you can pick one up at a deal its good enough
Pard are brilliant bang for buck also
i am a bit of a slut when it comes to thermals and have had pulsar ,conotech,guide and hik micro handhelds and rifle mounted as well. my hik micros (why have 1 when you can have 2 ) is imo the shizzle , wasnt 2.5 k thou .but 4k.still have my conotech which i rate above the guide i had . my 2 cents worth.
Sytong 100% - Great product, great service!
hikmicro falcons are pretty wicked, FH25 will located deer over 1km away easily, only down side would be are quite a big unit compared to some with similar spec units, the sytongs or pard are pretty good and will get a range finding one for that price
Anyone had a go with those mini units that you plug into your phone? Essentially just a thermal camera attachment that you plug into the charging port on your phone but interested to see how they perform vs the small size and weight
Would like to know what works with fog. Couple I had were useless so went back to relying on dog only. Haven't had a unit for 4 odd years but odd one I've seen in operation didn't like fog either.
My sytong sx06-50 eats through fog and rain. Super impressed. The 50 doesn’t have a range finder though which doesn’t worry me. The others in the sx06 range do.Quote:

Get one with a rangefinder.
It saves a massive amount of time figuring where the deer are - the world looks different in visible spectrum to how it looks on the thermal.... whodathunk?
Yes. Agree. Its a weird perspective through them.Quote:
