Shoot I remember in the military we were lucky to get a set that didn’t have crazy blems much less a good SNR. I remember the first set I was issued were green phosphorus with small to medium sized blems. We are spoiled today because not only can we purchase NVGs but we can pick what tubes we want if you have the money.

I used to share that opinion very strongly and still do to a point, but I gotta give credit where it's due, they are both the king of nightvision having the only design for an unfilmed tube that won't die immediately from positive ion poisoning, but also the kings of gate keeping. I had some Echo+ tubes that I did enjoy very much, wish the high gains would been around when I bought cause I probably wouldn't have gotten rid of them
@aesthetic8780Күн бұрын
@@dmaraschky1 I'm 100% with you. I'm also an Unfilmed enjoyer. But this is no reason to be such an ignorant a-hole company. And I mean, it's not Filmless. But they created the first new film. It performs like it's Filmless but it isn't. And this is huge for Gen3! They definitely deserve the credit. But look at Elbit. They have the best MTF on the Gen3 market. Best contrast. But they never even mentioned it in their marketing. Elbit is such a lovely company. They're not on a power trip.

Hand picked. As someone new to night vision, and just learning about specifications, what they mean, etc… I went down rabbit hole after rabbit hole, reading differing opinions, watching video after video. I invested a lot of time trying to learn before making a purchase with the hard earned money I’d been saving specifically for night vision. I finally settled on a vendor, Custom Night Vision, just based on the fact that what you see is what you get, no sneaky marketing schemes, no shit talking except for dinosaurs. Long story short but not really, they have nothing to hide. I purchased a hand picked option, talked to Kevin, he picked a tube, sent me pics and specs, and the rest is history. I did have an issue that was beyond CNS’s control and they took care of it immediately, no hassle or fuss. I have absolutely no regrets trusting Kevin to pick out a tube for me based on what I told him I’d be using it for. That being said, I use it quite frequently, learning as I go, and I’m confident that my next purchase I’ll be able to go down the list of tubes on CNV’s list and pick something that is exactly what I’m looking for. So…. If you are new, and have no idea where to start, reach out to these guys, you won’t regret it. Now that I’m done sucking Custom Night Visions dick, if you want to have fun and get your mind twisted by different “authorities” on specs, and you want to measure your night vision dick compared to everyone else… may I suggest r/NightVision 😂😂😂😂😂 Aloha 🤙🏽

Good news is everyone I talk to about night vision who may be interested in it someday I try to give them the rundown how it works the downfalls and the positives. I explain it all the way from start to finish with lasers red dots, having IR lights on or not and the effect it has with passive/active aiming. I explain how one may use it close or far. If I get a chance I actually show them and let them see.

The diopter has NOTHING to do with your prescription. The diopter is only focusing your eye to the screen on the tube. Wild to see companies not know this
@customnightvision2 күн бұрын
"A diopter is the unit of measurement used for an eye prescription. The focusing strength of your glasses or contacts is measured in diopters. In other words, diopters measure how powerful your prescription is. A higher prescription will have larger numbers, whereas a milder prescription will have smaller numbers." Dr. Cathy Moon - OD
@johnadams6732 күн бұрын

My opinion on autofocus. One less mechanical thing to fail. Also imagine doing something critically important like taking a life or death shot and it decides to try and auto focus itself at that critical moment. That’s my best guess. I don’t mind manual focus at all. I just set to infinity and adjust on the go with my $70 Amazon iris. Was worth every penny. Aloha 🤙🏽

I recommend people to use the daylight filter cap, the cap with the tiny hole, over the objective lens so close range objects will be in focus and they can then change the diopter to match their eyesight and then they should take off the daylight filter and then change the focus ring to in close focus or infinity or anything in between.
