Bushnell StealthView™ 26-0542

Pros: Clear B&W image, long distance IR spotlight, uses AA batteries

Cons: Viewfinder way too bright, spotlight doesn't fill view, not really low light device

The Bottom Line: Good if you can use the built-in illuminator and can deal with the overly bright viewfinder.

Review: This monocular isn't really a light amplifying device like an image intensifier. It is essentially a B&W low-light CMOS camera, like you might find in a video security system, with an LCD display viewfinder and two infrared (IR) illuminators. Like...

Pros: Excellent Resolution, cheap for the performance, TV/VIDEO adaptable.

Cons: Fairly narrow illuminator

The Bottom Line: This is perfect for anyone looking for nightvsion. Maybe with the exception of someone needing 1X mag for head gear! Very high quality poece of kit! I loved it!

Review: I sell nightvision and for a while the biggest problem was ensuring the customer wasn't expecting to own what he saw in the last action movie he went to see.

With the Stealthview you really can!

I admit that as the guy who wrote...

Pros: Fair to good black & white image, for the price.

Cons: Not stealthview as claimed.

The Bottom Line: NO IR lights are visible to the observed.

Pros: Fair Price..$399.00 Quality build,easy to operate,user friendly

Review: What a great piece of equipment!Turns night into day!I tried it out the night I picked it up.It works great!I went to the lake by my house.It was pitch black out.I turned it on and was amazed by what I could see.I could clearly make out a duck that...

Pros: Cheap, well made, easy to use and fun.

Cons: Can't really compete with a decent Gen2.

The Bottom Line: If you need serious night vision, avoid this. Great for kids and general use, but needs the illuminator to see if it's really dark

Review:

Not a bad product for the scope, but the hype about being better than Gen2 really is exaggerated. Firstly, the resolution is about 400x300 pixels. Count em - it's not hard, just takes patience. That's like old Analogue TV - still very good, but...
