Night Vision Equipment

I am looking to purchase one of the eyeclops nightvision products as a present, But I wasn’t sure which one to purchase? It seems that a lot of reviews say that the binoculars are better as it has dual vision, whereas with the goggles you can only see through with one eye. However, the binoculars cannot be worn, which is something to consider. Which one would you recommend?

I suggest

EyeClops Night Vision Infared Stealth Goggles V2

i have this camera http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10551&storeId=10151&langId=-1&productId=8198552921665529584

It does not have night vision and isnt very good in the dark. How do i do night scenes or make it look night i dont want to buy a Night Vision Camera because i want it to look normal.

add enough lighting to satisfy your camera - then make things dark with your video editor to satisfy you.

Sure. i like them too.

I’ve heard that if a CCTV camera that operates on a photoelectric sensor is exposed to infrared LEDs, it will be overwhelmed and will present the image as an opaque white light. Is there any way this type of interference can be done with night vision or infrared cameras, and if so, how?

Are you planning an illegal activity for which you need to disable CCTV? I cant tnink of any other reason anyone would want to know how to disable the equipment. Im surprised anyone would offer tips on how to do this. Advice on how to do things like this are how events like 9-11 are made possible.

Are there any movies out there that are based completely on a solo operative taking out terrorists without being seen and so on. Basically I’m looking for a movie that would strongly remind people of the novel/video game series Splinter Cell by Tom Clancy. A movie were a single man sneaks around in a black suit with night vision/thermal goggles and takes guys out one by one, retrieving information from computers and coming out of the shadows to kill people. I AM NOT looking for anything with Arnold Schwarzenegger, Steven Seagal or Sylvester Stallone. I just don’t want to wait for the Splinter Cell movie to come out.

well actually the first Die hard is kinda like that. Also, if you like Splinter Cell, then maybe you like Metal Gear, and Metal Gear was heavily inspired by the movie "Escape From New York" which has a similar feel, though it’s a little sci-fi. That’s all I can really think of off the top of my head. Maybe it’s not what you want, but it’s worth looking into.

Crimes are on the increase and criminals devise new ways of carrying out their criminal activities with each passing day. For this reason, we need to watch over the places in which we live to ensure that we are safe. But how do we keep an eye when we have so much to hassle and bassle about as we try to make ends meet? This is where the use of home security cameras comes in.

Some people tend to feel that installation of such gadgets is way too expensive, but the opposite is just true. A burglar who knows that he is being watched will freak out and not be able to break into your house. A burglar who is caught on camera during his operation will have no reason not to be prosecuted because the evidence will be first hand. Do you see how this gadget watches over your home and makes it safer?

While there are many versions of home security cameras that you can choose from, it is more advisable that you check with the reputable supply firms so that you can get expert advice. You will also get to be advised on the effectiveness of each type of gadget.

Different security cameras will be offered at different prices and while some will be very expensive, there are those that you will be able to get at fairly affordable prices. Again, the specifications of the gadget will dictate the prices of the same. For example, you might find that a Night Vision Camera will be more costly than a day time one. This is because it has features that will allow you to see clearly despite the darkness.

does anyone know if the canon XM2 has night vision capability? im only wondering this because im planning on going out in the night sometime in the summer and id like to know for future reference
thanks in advance

Yes.

When I was in Iraq I had a chance to use he military issued night vision goggles in a very clear sky not hazed by city lights or the usual dust. I could see meteor showers with the goggles but not with the naked eye.

What would be the best commercial monocular night vision goggle, or camera to view stars that would be less than 500 dollars?

You just need the newest generation. A generation 2 is better than a generation 1. A generation 3 is better than a generation 2. I think they’re up to 4 or five now.

there is a program in discovery channel "Animal Camera - Surveillance on Survival" that shows night life of animals. It uses ‘Infrared thermal imaging equipment’ technology. I have seen others night vision that uses infra red or thermal imaging but what they show in this program the picture are show clear even u can see shadow of animals in total dark , its just like black & white picture taken in day.
are these picture are edited to see a clear picture or its just b’coz of this new technology,
can one get these camera if yes where and what are they called??

Thermal imaging isn’t new technology. Are you sure they are using thermal imaging. If you can see shadows, then they are using near IR with a near IR illumination source. Thermal imaging picks up the heat signature and doesn’t use an illumination source, thus no shadows. Also, thermal IR has poor resolution due to the long wavelengths used (generally around 5 um). Another thing that makes me think this is near IR is the grey scale. Thermal IR cameras like to make use of colors to delineate the temperature.

You can get thermal imaging cameras if you don’t mind paying $5,000 for a junky system. If you don’t mind paying $30,000, you can get a pretty nice system. Near IR cameras are cheap, but can quickly escalate in price if you want quality.
