Nightfox Vulpes Handheld Digital Night Vision Goggles

I don’t normally write reviews however after getting these and being so impressed I felt I ought too. These were a bit of an impulse buy and part of me regretted the expense however as the title says I have found these to be awesome. I’ve used these a few times now and have been seriously impressed with there low light and night vision capabilities, late dusk seems like early dusk through them and have found in light polluted city that pointing them at the night sky with IR0 you can see an amazing amount of stars. I’ve yet to import photos onto the computer so can’t give 100% accurate review towards the quality of the photos, looking at them on the screen of the goggles though it seems a little low however considering what else it does I am quite happy with the quality. Zoom is great, lens focuses great and the device gives 3x digital zoom to bring those far away scenes even closer. Only thing I can think of that would of been helpful is a lens cover however the hard case is a reasonable alternative

This is a great bit of kit for what it’s intended to do which is provide night vision (with the addition of a rangefinder). However, these are definitely not like conventional optical binoculars where the image appears 3 dimensional. This basically projects the image on to a flat digital screen which is only a few inches away from your eyes when viewing through the large rubber aperture. No matter what I tried, I couldn’t get the image to be sharp. I do wear specs for distance but these made no difference looking through at the screen…in fact it was worse. In the end I had to use quite strong reading specs (+3.50) to get the image sharp. This is a bit of a nuisance as I have to keep removing the specs when not using the Vulpes. Other than that I really like it.

Do like it, works well, hard storage case, what I do like is the replacement batters,

good for rabbits upto 120m

At this price point this is a very good deal

First at all, the binos have no dioptre correction. I always thought that I have good eyesight but I couldn't see sharply through this bions keeping them close to my eyes as I should. The sharp image could be seen holding them around 15 cm from my face and there is no way to correct it. Another problem with them was that, the sensor or optics close to it was contaminated. Therefore, there were 3 dark spots on the bottom part of each video or a picture taken with them. I asked lensware for replacement, they told me to refund, so I did. Not helpful at all. I would buy from them again. Over all the binos are ok, cheap and you can see it but do the job. They have nice 2 * 5W illuminators. The video quality is ok and better than that what you can see on the screen. They are all plastic including a tripod mount thread ( really nightfox???). I had them, checked and won't be getting another one. Still would rather go for good used Sony or Panasonic IR camcorder and a good IR torch. For the same money or even less, you can have better image quality with optical zoom and stabilization.

My previous night visions was night owl and pulsar which cost me over twice as much then the night fox vulpes The images from the vulpes are far superior then the other two. cant comment on the video or pictures have not used them yet. my only gripe is because the focus wheel is so small at the moment i find focusing fiddle either my hands or finger get in the way of the lens

I bought Vulpes binoculars to assist with commercial bat surveys. Unfortunately, they are "too good" for the purpose for which I need them. I need to see the gable end of a building, but the zoom levels on the Vulpes is more suited to seeing an animal or object at very long distances. The Vulpes are easy to use with a lot of functionality. The ability to zoom in on a very distant object using the inbuilt IR torches is exceptional and I didn't need a seperate torch. It does extend the life of the batteries if you use a seperate IR torch. (NOTE . There is a warning in the packaging that IR technology is unsuitable for war areas like Ukraine as the IR light sources are easily detectable by an enemy) I think the proper term is "field of view". If you need to see something in the far distance in the dark, then these are most definately what you want. However, I need kit which can cover the side of a building or a tree from a shorter distance. The customer services were very helpful and have allowed me to return the Vulpes for a refund, despite the problem being completely my fault with a lack of research. I shall be buying a more suitable piece of kit from Night Fox very soon as I am very impressed with their high quality, good value kit and their excellent customer service.

Sono contento della qualità costruttiva (anche se è per lo più plastica) e della qualità dell’immagine, è piuttosto utile ed efficace a varie distanze e in varie condizioni di visibilità. La possibilità di registrare video, il telemetro e le due batterie ricaricabili e sostituibili sono ottime caratteristiche. L’ingrandimento fisso 6x è molto versatile per tutte le distanze, anche se è necessario aggiustare spesso manualmente il focus. Chiaramente non è un costoso visore notturno militare e quindi non ha lo stesso livello di robustezza, nitidezza, raggio d’azione e potenza (l’illuminatore ir è quasi sempre indispensabile), ma comunque è un prodotto solido e pratico. Anche il telemetro, real time, molto efficace, è comunque limitato rispetto a uno strumento dedicato diurno. Come miglioramenti suggerirei un grip più ergonomico (indispensabile la tracolla, inclusa, ma una fascetta in più per la mano non sarebbe male), includere un panno per la lente e una garanzia a vita

das aufgenommene Video ist relativ stark verrauscht, aber dafür schön deutlich. Die Ausleuchtung mit den IR-Lampen ist sehr gut. Wenn das Nachtsichtgerät einen Sucher hätte, wäre es meine erste Wahl. Aber mit dem Display kann ich mich nicht so Recht anfreunden. Es ist nachts auffallend hell, aber ich muß es immer einige Zentimeter entfernt halten, damit ich es deutlich erkenne. Ist natürlich mein Problem, aber stört mich. Deswegen geht das Gerät leider zurück. Die Bäume im Video sind ca. 150m weit weg

Würde ich nicht wieder kaufen. Sehr schlechte Bildqualität , für mich nicht zu gebrauchen. Für den Preis zu teuer.

Super pour observer les animaux la nuit fonctionne correctement sur 200 m sur des petits animaux sur des plus gros ce produit vous permet de voir un peux plus loin
