Very cool and tons of fun!!!

Review Image by FastEarle
I've read the reviews and researched the different types and all the brands and yada yada. After much debate, I elected to go digital versus conventional. In that department, these seemed to fit the bill better than most of the others. Pro's Very tough, Nice picture (Once focused-more on that), Ability to take photos and video. Ability to turn off the IR, Ability to see more than 50 yards(It does), Ability to rifle mount(It does with mount available through bushnell, Not that I would, but), Above all, it actually works at night. (It does and it does it very well. Cons Its a battery hog. (They all are) A little heavy (Not really an issue) Magnification is quite high so field of view can become an issue if you aren't prepared. (Prevalent in all of them unless you want to spend thousands) You might ask why I didn't get the 3X? Because you cant take pictures or video with it. That's about it. On to the focus. First, there are many ways to adjust brightness in this unit, so don't let the other reviews that complain talk you out of it. It does exactly what its supposed to. You need to follow the directions on how to focus this and the other units. First turn on and focus the eye piece to the lcd inside the unit. Then, never touch it again unless someone else uses it, then just refocus when you use it. Then, focus the lens out to the distant, or near, object. That's all there is to it, hit record for video or picture if desired and have fun in the dark! This thing is awesome but you might want to get some rechargeable batteries i'm thinkin'.... The photo is from my living room couch to the sink in total darkness, about 30 feet, without IR and only ambient light from the windows. ... show more

Good product
Good product, good price, quick delivery. Live in the forest, works well in full darkness with IR, but for covert use I bought a separate 940 nm IR light that I hook up to the rail included on the unit. The IR built into the unit does show up as a fairly bright red light even at several hundred feet. I used a small Pulsar PL79076 940 IR Night Vision Flashlight I also got on Amazon, and it works well for us. Do not need the IR if the moon is out, as it works pretty well as a starlight scope. Hooked it up to our security camera DVR, worked fine, but can not use it for any thing but short term as it times out and shuts down to quickly to be of any use. Wish their was a way to over ride the auto timeout shut off. Also wish it had a jack to hook up a external power supply for long term use about the home. If it did it could double as a security camera, and could also leave it out to catch the elk when they make their night time raids on the fruit trees. I use rechargeable batteries and have a extra set with me when I go out to use it, as the battery life is not all that long, and is nice to have something to get back on the bear or whatever if the batteries go south on you. on board photo and motion camera recording are not all that bad for the price. We are happy with ours, I would recommend it I recon. ... show more

Great NV For The Money.
This is a really good product for the money. Here are the things I did not really like though. 1)- Don't expect to be able to look out your window on a dark night and see much. On a night without a bright moon you will need the illuminator and it will not work through the window (you will only see the reflection of the bright 'light'). If you step outside and turn on the illuminator - WHOA! It is impressive what you can see. 2)- It takes a lot of focusing. If you go from looking at something 40 feet away to something 100 feet away you will need to crank on the lens quite a lot to get the focus right. It is not a fast focus like some of my binoculars either. You have to turn the lens several turns for even short distance changes. It is very awkward to do with one hand so if you are carrying something in the other hand you will probably need to set it down. 3)- The view. You are really only looking into a small digital screen inside of the body of the camera. It is not like a viewfinder on a digital camera though where it fills the entire view. It is more like a viewfinder at the end of a toilet paper roll. It is really pretty far away and it gives the effect of looking at a screen at the end of a hallway or something. It does not fill your whole view. Thinks I like: 1)- The illuminator is awesome. Works very well even at long distances. 2)- Very solid feel. Nice rubberized texture. It feels very durable. I'm not scared to just toss it in the jeep and drive around. 3)- The price. 4)- Long battery life 5)- Ability to record video & images right from the camera. 6)- Close up viewing capability. I was worried that you would not be able to see close up things but you can. I focused on things as close as 4-5 feet without problems (lots of focusing though). ... show more

A-MAZING. Must buy!
Style: Z_ 4.5 x 40mm
This is one of the best online purchases I have ever made. My husband is in law enforcement and has gear that cost hundreds to a couple thousand dollars. This IR Vision monocular does just as well as his gear. There's definitely a learning curve as far as focusing the lense goes. Being experienced with IR, he knew how to work it right away and was able to teach me. When scanning across an area, you have to adjust the lense depending on the depth of what is directly in front of you. It's a slight adjustment and once you get used to it, you don't even realize your finger is auto-adjusting. I bought an IR flashlight to go with this and ended up returning it because it did not need any help. The IR works great. I could easily see 300 yrds across a clear cut zone. The only complaint I have is that the video setting does not work for me. But as that is a feature I wouldn't use anyways, I am not upset about it. I had never used a Bushnell before and was so impressed with this product that when I bought a rangefinder a few weeks later, I bought the more expensive Bushnell because I was certain it would be a good product and I was not disappointed. Highly recommend. ... show more

Some other details you might want to know.
Style: Z_ 4.5 x 40mm
I like this item, but I don't love it. This as a special use, low resolution digital camera that is super sensitive to infrared light. I mostly agree with the other reviews. What I don't agree with is mostly technical, and would not help you decide to buy, so I will not waste your time with it. With some optical background, I understand the challenge that compact monocular/binoculars have with small field of view. I initially couldn't decide between 4.5x and 6x model. I chose 4.5x, but now wish they made a 2x model that can take photos. Because of the higher magnification and smaller field of view, the practical usability of this item is at least 100 feet or more. The focusing does allow you to see as close as 30 inches, but why did they bother? BTW, the front lens is focusing for the target, and the back ocular lens/eye piece is focusing to compensate for your prescription. PROS: 1)Everything in the description for this item and by other reviewers. 2)Fast shutter speed for photos, so slight movements will not blur still photos (with no optical zoom in daylight or at night with IR on). If you have shaky hands or use the optical zoom, you should use a monopod or tripod. CONS: 1)On/Off switch too close to other buttons. It required 2 seconds to turn off, but that is how long it takes to realize you pushed the wrong button. 2)Eye piece only adjustable for people with perfect or nearsighted vision. Farsighted people will have to wear glasses/contacts. This is an "oversight" by the designers. 3)Does not fit well into included vinyl zip case when the oculars are adjusted for most people (distance focused and no Rx compensation). I have to turn the ocular/back lens completely into the scope (3 complete rotations) each time to fit it back into the case. 4)If you use a tripod mounting plate, the TV/Video out cable and the photo/video switch may not be accessible due to it's location near the tripod mount. 5)Unlike a real camera, there is no feature to review photos/video saved on the micro-sd card. You will need another device to see the 640x480 jpg files, usually around 200-300 kb in size. 6)Battery cover is spring loaded, somewhat awkward to screw on. MISC: 1)IR illuminator glows dull red when on, so your target may see your red IR glow. 2)The IR illuminator will reflect back, causing glare from windows and leaves/brush near you. You have to turn the IR off, or use this in open space. Think of the IR as a very bright flashlight, but only visible when looking through the scope. 3)The eye piece display seems very bright when your eyes are adapted to the dark, but it's required to see the small internal video display clearly. Our eyes use "rods" for night vision, which can not see detail as clearly as the color sensitive "cones" that require more light. 4)Front lens has a 42.5mm threading. I was hoping my 43mm wide angle video lens would allow a wider field of view, but obviously it did not fit. 5)Because this is not a pure optical device, the internal video screen resolution in daylight at 4.5x, is only about the same as my 20/20 vision. Digital zoom does not increase resolution, but does make small things up to 3x bigger, so it is helpful but harder to hold the picture steady. 6)While recording video, the IR/color mode and Sensitivity buttons do not work. WISH LIST FOR NEXT VERSION: 1)A slightly larger case that fits, even when both focusing lenses are at the maximum extension. 2)Power button relocated, or software change to give "Power Off" warning and require a second press to shut off. 3)Built-in photo/video player, like other digital cameras. 4)Optical/Digital Zoom from 1x to 10x, or mountable accessory lenses for wide-angle and telescopic lenses like SLR cameras. 5)adjustable Oculars designed for both near and far sighted people.

Great night vision
Style: Z_ 4.5 x 40mm
I've really enjoyed using this for the last six months or so. I walk our dog in our rural area near the country and have wondered what those noises were in the dark. I have some really good flashlights, but using night vision is a whole different experience. It's sci-fi becoming reality. I've seen rabbits, coons, cats, mice, (but haven't seen coyotes yet). Long range viewing is great, but don't expect to walk around and see up close. The lowest zoom setting is 1.0, so 100% increase in size. If you're looking for a special-ops experience you'll need to look for something else. The clarity is very good. The batteries last a long time if you use lithium; worth investing in. Also glad to know rifle attachment is optional for night hunting. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to hunt or have fun at night without a flashlight. ... show more

Great Product
Style: Z_ 4.5 x 40mm
i had been wanting to get some kind of night vision and had looked at all that was on the market when i found this one i was sceptical about buying not being sure until i purchased it, i figured i would give it a try and so far i like it real well, i like that you can use it during the day and it takes pictures and video how great is that? Very good addition, It takes a little bit to get used to but i like it.It is a little bulky but for my use it works well for seeing what is out in the fields before crossing them when going hunting, so many times before i got this i would start across an area before light and could hear the deer take off from the field edge, now i can scan the field and take a different route if the deer are out and i keep from scaring them off before i get to hunt them. I also use it around the house after dark if the dog goes to barking without turning on the light and i can see what is outside without scaring off by turning on the lights. It is a great product! ... show more

Spooking dear and wild boar - not good for hunting or observation of game animals
Optic enlargement is fine for dear/wild boar observation on 60-70 yards/meters. However, the monitor is by far too bright even in the lowest settings. I did ask Bushnell for support (new software with less monitor brightness) but no reaction at all. Problem is that you are blind for 10 minutes after using it in the dark. When you look through rifle skope after looking through the monitor you can see anything due to the blinding effect. I'm using it in Germany for wild boar hunting (this is legal due to a huge population) at night. Video and photo function is fine (B/W only). Built-in IR lamp give a good picture, however wild boar and dear a sensitive for the wavelength (805 nm) - thus they feel disturbed and panic. IR lamp is nut suitable for hunting and observation at all. Longer wavelength of 850 - 905 nm is needed. No information from Bushnell whether the device works with 905 nm light. No answer from manufacturer hotline. Sensitivity is worse compared to my old first generation analog NSG (100 US$). Equinox Z only works with additional IR lamp or built-in illuminator. All in all im not happy at all with it for hunting or even animal observation as the 805 nm illuminator is spooking the animals. Waste of money. Mice are not spooked by the way... :-( ... show more
