I had a play with one at a show in Jan and was amazed at the size and price, performance is about the same as the flir scout 24, build quality is very good. I would see if you can test one first to see if it suits your needs.
All flir are at 7 hertz or maybe 9. Sorry can't remember. Ok if the object is not moving. You need one at min 25 hertz if your foxing or if subject is moving. Damn those Itar regulations.
Yes i think someone mentioned 30hz is the way to go ,the new mini rimfire sight at Scott C is rated at 30 hz but its near £700 and looks as big as a pencil.Was looking for something to spot foxes in the distance before lamping ,cant really run to a full Thermal scope ,my car cost half that TBH .Thanks for the heads up il have to get to a couple of shows and have a look see.ITAR sucks ,had a ifra red/starlight scope from the U/S about 10 years ago for buttons awesome kit but when it "died" couldnt replace as they are no longer allowed to export .Atb

Can anyone confirm what their actual effective range might be? I know what the blurb says but I'm after real world experience. I'm thinking for spotting mainly munty size animals in woodland cover for example..... I appreciate they're not X-ray machines and can't see through stuff but just after a practical report from someone using one in a similar context.
Thanks so much for pointing it outThat came out all wrong didn't it!
OO er missus ,thanks for that Chris ,just got back from trying a Photon 5x42 on my .308 like wow saw buckets of bunnies and 4 Muntys including a cracking fawn bouncing around like springs.As usual the muntys were out after very dark o clock so off limits but nice to see pity they dont like daylight dog walking eejits that cant read have em spooked.atb
