Bushnell EX650 Digital Equinox X650 Night Vision 5x 32mm Monocular | 3x Optical Magnification, 5x Digital Zoom, 32mm Objective, Day/Night Vision for Hunting & Outdoor Use

For the prise, value for money. I would have wish the IR light more sharper..... But I bought a additional IR light..... Really light up the night Overall this item did not disappoint me

Esta bastante cortito y la imagen nomas bien pobre.

I bought this on a whim and was pleasantly surprised. Burned through the Alkaline battery pretty quick because I had accidentally hit the power button putting it in the case. Oops. No documentation came with it, but I was able to go online and download the most current version. The IR illuminator comes on the moment you turn on the device. Once I read how to use the menu, I was able to turn it off. I could also increase or decrease the brightness of the illuminator. I do have IR floodlights around my house so I don't need to use the illuminator on the device unless I move further away from the house. The IR floodlights keep the neighbors from complaining when I turn them on. I was able to see accurately out to 300 yards. Another thing I noticed, I can see a lot of stars when I point my Monocular into the sky, even those I can't see unaided. I have been very pleased with the Monocular. I did replace the 8 GB card with a 64 GB one for more storage. With a 1.0 view, the device works great. When I increase the zoom up to 3.0 the image becomes grainy. For me, the 1.0 view is just fine. 10/16/2023 Update When using the 64 GB card, the device will shut off at times while in use. Sometimes it won't even come on. Once I removed the 64 GB card and replaced it with the 8 GB version that came with it, the problems ceased. Since I primarily use it for wildlife spotting in my neighborhood and night viewing of the sky in conjunction with a couple of telescopes, I don't need to record any video or pictures. I did buy a couple of IR lights for it and they work well with the scope. The quality is pretty good for the price. I would buy one again if I needed another one.

Well it does what it says..I have not used another to compare it by , I wasn't expecting much for the price, however the night vision works quite well. I did look at video feedback on you tube before buying it. So am pleased. The zoom isn't the greatest but then I knew it wasn't the most powerful

I have a number of Bushnell products, ranging from budget optics for rifles to high-end binoculars, and generally find them to be good value for the prices charged. Living in a rural area with 16 acres of wooded property, night vision could be a useful tool for ensuring nothing is amiss at night, so I got these as a simple 'check things out' night vision device. After reading the manual and loading the batteries, I check them in both 'starlight' conditions and nearly complete darkness; in both cases, what I got was a small, illuminated screen of blurry, indistinct bright and dark spots and swirls. The magnification, which never goes below 3x, doesn't help. The IR illuminator does seem to 'work' in that the brightness of the screen changes, but objects remain unrecognizable. I was able to see my car in my driveway from about 20 feet away, and it was *slightly* more visible than with the naked eye, but that has been the only time it's actually 'worked.' I'm not sure if this is a defective unit, or this is simply what it's capable of, but I'm certainly not thrilled with it.
