Description
The Bushnell 6×50 Equinox Z Digital Night Vision Monocular uses an infrared-sensitive CMOS sensor and a micro LCD screen for its night vision capabilities, instead of a conventional intensifier tube. A built-in IR illuminator provides an effective night vision range of up to 1000′. A side rail enables accessories, like another illuminator, to be attached directly to the monocular. The screen displays color images during the day, and black and white when the night vision is on for great clarity and contrast. Enhancing the optical 6x magnification is a digital zoom to provide up to 18x magnification.
Capture video with sound and still images in 640 x 480 resolution, and save them to an optional microSD card in the built-in card slot. It supports cards up to 32GB. A switch on the bottom of the Bushnell 6×50 Equinox Z monocular lets you quickly switch from video to still images. A USB port lets you transfer the files to a computer without having to remove the card. An RCA video-out port allows the live video feed to be sent to an external monitor or recording device. The status of the monocular is displayed on the LCD screen in the field of view. The icons can be disabled for an unobstructed view. Icons show battery level, zoom factor, IR and image brightness settings, if a memory card isn’t detected, elapsed and remaining recording time, and the number of pictures you can take based on the available memory.
