hi
So i'm Ben im from Lancashire just got nv camara getting into it i'm only watching dont hunt, seen quite a few owls which has been great. I've got the newton digital night vision hornet 5x50 so would like to hear from any one with same nv or same intrest
Re: hi
i'v got the bresser digi unit which i use as a spotter.
i think its a great unit, cheap as chips. so if i drop it in a puddle or it gets wet in rain and packs up i wont have to sell a kidney to replace it
i somtimes use it on a tripod mount as a remote spotter with a screen
and with a infra red laser illuminator attached to it i can spot fox's at well over 300yrds
i'v also changed the front lens for a yukon 3x one which gives a wider field of view and means you dont have to re-focus it so much for different ranges
one complaint is the occular lens adjustment being loose and easy to move. a lot of people put an elastic in there to tighten it up...i set mine for my eye and then taped it up solid
phew, pretty long post for me that

Re: hi
Hi Ben. Dunno if you have a field out the back of your house or not but as you have a digital one, if it's got an AV out plug you could plug it into your home tv - or a portable one to take out in the car mate.
