Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

When you're in the outdoors and you spot wildlife, the first thing you may want is to get a better look. The Night Owl Optics NGM5X National Geographic Elite Edition Monocular gives you the opportunity to do just that without making that hard-to-approach animal or bird take flight. Assembled with high quality materials, this scope includes a 4-piece objective lens, which gathers light, and a 5-piece ocular lens, which is at the end closest to your eye--both made from camera-grade glass.

The NGM5X is coated with rubber for protection against impact and moisture. The body is designed in two pieces to give you a surer, more comfortable grip under any weather conditions. And most impressive of all, with an auto-gain control to normalize the glare of bright light and an infrared indicator for nighttime conditions, the NGM5X lets you view anytime from dawn to dusk and then into the night. So whether you're trying to catch an early bird, a sun-loving starling, or a moose after a midnight snack, the Night Owl Optics National Geographic Elite Edition Monocular brings you closer to the animal action.

The NGM5X magnifies objects by a factor of five and runs on two AA batteries.

This review is from: Night Owl Optics NGM5X National Geographic Elite Edition 5x Monocular (Electronics)

Considering the cost of this unit, I was very pleased with its performance. Good clarity for distance and with the IR light, short range was exceptionally bright. From 30 yards I was able to see a rabbit twitch his nose in a pitch black. I almost felt like Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs. Get one Clarise Starling.....
