Still finds the deer for you.Its whats on yr rifle thats gota give you a clear picture.

Photos taken a minute apart - cattle detected at around 700m

A clip from the Arken Zulus day/night 'scope. 7.30pm last night. Range 152 yards. Starts at 5 power, flicks to maybe 20 and then back down to 12. Not too bad for $1,400. Apology for the dog panting in my ear.
I was pretty sure she had a fawn cos she kept ducking into the scrub.

Nah, not yet. Ive only just figured how to use the vid function.

Last night. I could see this deer quite plainly with the thermal hand held but because it was obscured by the trees I couldn't see it well enough with the Zulus NV on the rifle. No fault of the 'scope. If it had stepped clear it would have copped it. I say the range on the vid. 240 yards odd.

I can see why.
Advantage of the day night NV is great in day and well into dusk and mostly ok at night so long as the animal isn't obscured. There's a safety margin with NV 'cos you can actually clearly id the animal.

I use to have a ATN -sight 5-20 nv scope,great for day and early evenings.Like watching colour tv and accurate.It just didnt have the detection ability like thermal at distance,even with a good ir torch along side.

Just playing around with a new thermal I got.

What make n model did you buy?nice n clear on yr dog.

Hikmicro fq35.

Makes my pulsar xq38 look a bit average

immage taken from a stand 20 meters away!

Zulus night vision in daytime mode. Well after ordinary shooting light. 20x digital mag. Pretty impressive.
You can see the aiming point come up after I ranged it. Quite good depth of field - you can see it walk behind a fence post right at the end (it was behind and old deer trap fence).
