    That *30* looks very impressive. Definitely on my short-list of very near future purchases.

      ​@@UrbanSurvivorThankyou for my brand new NVG30 it's clear, you can make out people a long ways away, animals too. I have mine set to 40hz, and I love color night vision. Everyone I let look though it is impressed, and they want to keep looking.

      @@TacticoolVIKINGBeard You have a choice to be passive or active, I keep the emitter off unless indoors with no ambient light. The eyepiece does have some light shine on your face though. Also I estimate at half moon you can detect a person at about 250 yards, with some artificial lights in the area, but to the naked eye no way. It picks up IR laser well.

    The biggest problem with the digital night vision is the 16:9 aspect ratio. I have a bino NVG30'S but flipped 90 degrees. I am very pleased. If you want to mount these and walk around it is the best way IMO.

    It would be an incredible value if the NVG30 could incorporate a 4:3 TFT display like the Prowl. Hopefully, they will consider an upgrade or release a new model with this feature.

    I agree with the prowlers lag. I like it's feild of view altho, I wish it was still wider.
    My complaint with it really (that se3ms to apply to all of them) is that the IR creats a very bright spot light and it makes a lot of reflective glare off your weapon or walls :/ i don't know how to deal with that problem. Diffuser ?
    Anyone have a suggestion..

      @jennacoryell4160 4 місяці тому +2

      Nightfox came out with a firmware update that really improves smoothness/lag issues. It's free, go to their website.
      No help for the light, other than fastening a fisheye lens to diffuse the light. You might rock a beam on the 850nm and a flood on the 940?

      You can remove one of the arms on the bino bridge and run a single NVG30. That's the best solution that I am aware of for those looking for a more robust mounting solution than what comes in the box with the NVG30.

      Does the framerate increase at night if you use a secondary IR illuminator?
      If it can't see much it might reduce the framerate to capture more light, so if the scene is flooded with IR light it should increase the framerate to reduce the brightness...?
