So you are saying God hates these endangered ducks?
No, I am just saying that if God liked ducks they wouldn't be endangered. |

Thanks everyone!
It's one of N-Vision's zone 3 blem PVS-14s with an unfilmed L3 WP tube. Absolutely love it |

Anyone inquire with the manufacturer if they are working on a hardened unit to work with NV scopes etc.
Do you guys think it can stand any recoil. Example mounting it onto a 14 and the 14 onto a 22 cal rifle or a 9mm? |

That camera looks really nice for the money. I sent them an email the other day to ask whether or not they knew if it was compatible with the DEP Ether eyepieces. I haven’t gotten a response yet.

Went out earlier tonight to a pasture where a couple coyotes have been harrassing the cattle. I’ve seen one 3 nights in a row here and got set up on him. The reflection under the tree is my call. I put IR reflective tape on it so anyone I take hunting can see it and not shoot it. There was another coyote to the left of those 2 trees but this one was the best shot.

This cam is like a gopro in that things up close turn out good, but at distance it is difficult to pick up a coyote even though I can see it in the NODs. I’ve noticed watching the video past 100 yards you’ll just see the eyes reflect in the IR Light. View Quote |

Why do some pictures of WPs have a blue hue and some look more black and white? Camera, specs, light pollution? Which hue do they have to the naked eye?

View Quote The top photo is how it appears once photographed through my Samsung Note 8 and the bottom has been edited to more accurately portray how my eyes actually see the image through the tube. Keep in mind this is just what I see in my specific tube so it can very significantly depending on the gear, person, etc Attached File Attached File |

Photonis WP tubes checking in. I have some that look black and white, blue, and everything in between. iPhone 8 Plus. I think it’s just different lighting conditions.

Originally Posted By jwramp: To add a little to the above responses, when your image sensor is capturing a scene, it's trying to find a neutral grey to white balance what it's seeing - so when you take a photo indoors it's not too yellow and outside it's not too blue. When all the camera or phone sees is a monochrome image, it's trying to shift that to grey but white phos is so far from neutral grey it can't get there. On the way, it'll wander a bit and sometimes get green, other times more blue, etc. You can see in the thumbnails below, the photos I take through a WP tube have quite a bit of variability to them - whether you had the tube on before you started the app, or flipped it on after the camera was already on, how long it's been hunting for a white balance, all of that - definitely switches around between green/blue/teal quite frequently. I try to group them together into similar color tones then edit them to be more similar to what my eye recalls from the experience looking through the tube - much more of a light blue hue than straight black/white greyscale. Here's the album from the last TNVC pro course with the finished photos: https://jwramp.smugmug.com/Shooting-Courses/Oct-2018-TNVC-ArmedPro/ https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4826/44002806070_df42037e1a_h.jpg View Quote |
