Bestguarder NV-900 Digital Night Vision Binocular with 4.5X40mm Magnification

Dear MR.J: I got a group of friends who love to hunt at night but I don't have night vision binocular and my friend told me to get one. I ended up buying this Best Guarder NV-900 because it can reach a max distance of 1400 FT and got digital night vision and 4.5 optical zoom/ 5 digital zoom. More importantly, it has handy features like GPS, date, and time stamps. The viewing screen is about 4' and it is clear and sharp. It can record 2592*1944 HD images and 1280*720 videos. Buy a power bank!!! It is not a cheap night vision binocular, and I guess that's why they included a 32GB SD card.

rodney d saylor: What can I say, it works. The closer the more clear the objects are. The zoom is digital so we all know what that means. Within the first 50 yards in pitch black it’s essentially daytime, the further out you go the less it is but it still works quite well. The picture quality in the review window is a little weak and sometimes a little scrambled along the bottom for pictures taken at high zoom. But on the computer they are surprisingly clear.

Overall I’m very happy for the price

My one complaint is that it would bengreat if the field of view was about twice as wide as it is. You would get a lot more in the picture and it would make it a lot more useable for things like boating at night or just trying to find something in the dark.

Shay: In lieu of the zombie apocalypse, I will be using these on my rural property to determine why my dogs are barking at night. Do I have a horse or a goat in distress? Are there predators down by the animal enclosures? If so, is it just a couple of coyotes drinking the horses water or are there predators trying to get into the goat pen? Is there a stray horse/goat/sheep/cow wandering around down by the pens who needs assistance until its owner can be found in the morning? Did my mare decide at 2am that she wanted some attention and are the dogs barking because she is tossing one of the water bins around the arena? These allow me to assess the situation and more than likely just go back to bed because it is my mare wanting attention and my gelding doesn’t want to play with her at 2am. These binoculars are very easy to use and work great. They seem to be of good quality. I have not tried any of the camera functions yet as this was a function I added just for fun. I love that these can be used during the day also without damaging the IR function.

Besides all of that, these are just fun. You cannot mount them on a helmet and walk around in the dark. They do not...

Sid L.: Figured it wouldn't be that great for how cheap it is . Boy was I wrong in complete darkness I was seeing past 100 yards , during the day I was able too see numbers on a tail of plane passing over heading toward our local airport .
Very impressive !!!
Update .... after using this several times the screen is very dark during the day it's very hard seeing anything . Used it this weekend for some night hiking screen was very choppy at night looking out 25 yards . I lost count how many batteries we tried too see if it made a difference which it didn't . I'm unable to return it cause they only give you 30 days .
I'm extremely disappointed with myself spending so much money on something I assumed would be better than my other NV monocular and scope . Lesson learned

Roger Wilco: I am a night vision aficionado/nut :) …..over the past 30 years I have purchased/owned & used dozens of NV devices, & thermal as far as that goes.
So in truth I am not that easily impressed, a NV must be both well designed, well made & be very easy to use & durable/waterproof for it to get a passing grade IMO
I like the overall design concept of this digital unit, the widescreen view in particular is what "sells" this device as it offers the promise of a great field of view along with the ability to quickly & easily zoom in & out on your targets of interest.
The problem is this good idea is executed in a sub par fashion, so it just does not perform as well as you would hope/expect.
The push buton in/out zoom requires manually refocusing the objective lens after every use of the zoom button, moreover the control push buttons are cloistered too close together & they all feel the same in the dark, they should be easily discernible by touch alone as to which button is which, & it would be much better if they had a soft/muted blue or purple glow to them so if need be you could actually just look at them to determine which...
