And actually, I blame AGM for my ending up with the TS25-384 instead of the TS35. I kept looking at their photos of both, and could not see any visible difference between the objectives on the two.NV and thermal are one of those things that getting your feet wet with “entry level” offerings might result in wasted money.
I’d suggest a six month or year long savings plan so you can get in at the mid-grade level from the start as using this technology can be quite amazing thus addictive.
Many people get that “man I wish it was just a little bit better” feeling when buying the cheap stuff then realizing just how good it can get.
BINGO. Here's what I've found, and note that I don't have the very latest firmware, so I'm not sure if they've resolved this:Also the scope adjustments are backwards and can cause issues.
Yep. If hit is high, right use the freeze screen, then move it up to the impact. If you shoot tin at night the hits are " hot" for a bit.BINGO. Here's what I've found, and note that I don't have the very latest firmware, so I'm not sure if they've resolved this:
X = Reticle movement, Y = POI movement
i.e, If you move the X setting in the positive direction, the reticle moves positive (to the right), thus the POI moves in the negative direction (i.e., to the left)
If you move the Y setting in the positive direction, the reticle moves negative (down), thus the POI moves in the positive direction (i.e., up)
Took me a while to catch on to this, since both my X and Y settings were always so close to "0"
Speaking for thermals, the cooler it is the greater the differentiation between background temp and heat sources... so better in Winter than in Summer. Also, using thermals in the daytime worries me because you do not want the Sun to shine directly into your sensor... same as with some of the low-light, traditional NV units with intensifier tubes. This may apply to IR as well.How well IR and thermal scopes work in the day time?
Most of the modern IR have a day mode, some have a pinhole in the cap for day use. Thermals can be used, but it's a challenge due to the light outside, and the sun makes just about everything hot. Better off using a normal scope in the day, YMMV.How well IR and thermal scopes work in the day time?
