    Night vision equipment for mortals

    Just back from Cyprus where the T2Pro proved invaluable in helping me locate for spotlighting calling Cyprus Scops-owls. The camera resolution doesn’t allow you to see any real detail on owls at several metres range but they stick out like candles lit up thanks to their thermal images.

    I'm interested in how the Infrared T2 Pro performs in field tests - aside from Jon Hall's review there's virtually nothing I can find online. Several hunter videos on YouTube show them being used to seek out mammals but there's nothing I can find from the birding world. If it works in helping...
