Either really - just different specs - both have ballistics - with QD mounts both do work as a handhelds as well, FT is smaller - but both the FT and SA32 are older models now - pantera, ocelot, TD are the scopes and predator replaced FT (not seen a predator yet)

Hi mate, been looking into these for months, thanks for the review! Question, im going to be using it for rabbits from the 15-200m range on a 22lr but also out to 600m on my 6.5cm(will be very very seldom). What out of the 50/70/100 would you recommend? I always choose high mag in my steiners and NF's as i prefer to have too much opposed to not enough. Any advice is much appreciated! It will also be a 850nm also

I love the video but I'm dying to see how pixelated things become if you want to use it as a clip on at night. 2-4 power range is all I care about. I estimate the image resolution to be 480x360 at 3x zoom but I would love to know that that actually looks like. Even the high end thermal clip ons I've used become very "blobular" looking after even 2x but would love to see how bad the compromise is on this. I like the 007 but some of the scopes I want to use dont have parallax adjustment and it just does not work for that.
@owlopticsandoutdoors
@owlopticsandoutdoors 29 дней назад
Yes using digital zoom will drop it some - the sensor has more pixels than screen so some is lossless Thermal resolution and blobular - my new word :) Honestly just go a night stalker and chuck the glass scope away - day and night, dusk and dawn - ballistics … I don’t own any glass scopes anymore and neither do mates

Yes the aiming point (main reticle stays the same) works - put right data in and it goes a very long way - 1269 (see other video) and 1439 on targets for the night stalker model - you won’t be shooting anything like that far with a thermal though

@owlopticsandoutdoors

Question for you! How well does it retain "zero" in clip on configuration? Do I need to collimate every time? Also, I've got a Schmidt & Bender that doesn't give me any parallax adjustment. Is that feature necessary to get a good image?
@owlopticsandoutdoors
@owlopticsandoutdoors 3 месяца назад
Watch the video I have a test there using the FD1, concept is the same, yes you should check it - any front clip on (any brand) that isn’t bolted to chassis can move depending on what you do as its just holding the front of the scope - QD mounts and just swap the whole scope is better - needs to be able to focus to see the screen
