I bought this night vision scope because I live out of town and I can easily see the surroundings with this device. I don't hunt, but I think this would make a great gift for any hunter. You really get a very clear idea of what's going on in that darkness! I took some photos to see what it looks like. I'll admit I'm still learning the features, but I was pleased with the results of these test photos. I've even seen some animals roaming around effortlessly with this monocular. I got this to satisfy my curiosity about things moving in these areas and it exceeded my expectations after only using it for a week. Costs money!
