Night Owl Optics's NOB5X 5x50 1st Generation Night Vision Binocular features two 1st generation intensifier tubes to deliver true binocular vision with 3-dimensional perception of depth. To enable observation in total darkness, or extremely low light, the binocular also carries a built-in infrared illuminator. To bump up light gathering capacity and image brightness even more, the binocular features 50mm objectives. The optical system combines all-glass lenses, a notable 5x magnification, and a wide 15° angular field of view. For convenience and comfort, the device provides an adjustable interpupillary distance, center focusing, and diopter adjustment.
The water-resistant housing is durable and offers a rubberized covering for a non-slip grip. The menu buttons are conveniently located on top, within easy reach of your fingertips.
