has anyone compared the 1000 yard sight picture to a S&B PMII for example... how much quality are we giving up for half the price?

S&b; it's in a class in itself. I don't have any complaints with my hdmr scope. It's not as clear as the s&b; but I don't see have the price to get the S&b.;

The S&B; has better glass that is for sure but your not paying the extra $$$$ and you get a life time warranty were S&B; PMII are only a 2 year now. The glass is go enough and the FOV is very good also. I prefer the ET35215 DMR Bushnell 3.5-21x50 DMR 34mm, H-59, Matte Black and the ET35215G DMR 3.5-21x50 Matte 34mm, G2DMR, .1 Mil, Box.

quality reminds one of 320 x 240 .. not a clean 720 by any means. Comparable blur on lettering gives it away as below par of a 720p normal cam. Mine had poorly aligned lens to the hole in pen. That could be part of the problem. Quality control is nil on this and a thousand like it and my complaint got no reply. The ills of mass prod. imported gadgets I guess. Crapped out other spy devices too at &gt;100 bucks. All said, the quality for the price is not bad. It just wont excite ya.

Marc,It looks like the AL2223 has slightly better features. This is the model that I will be purchasing in the coming week or so. The contrast ratio is slightly higher (800:1 as opposed to 700:1) so I think this is a better deal. Maybe others have some feedback that will add to the discussion?: Michael

I was just at the store today looking at the TM90 and the Canon M41, hard to choose between the two! Johnny, do you miss having a viewfinder? And, the green tint scares me...I've read that in a lot of reviews.

Sorry, I don't know how it compares to these other Binoculars. Mine is particularly bad. It arrived out of alignment and the chromatic aberration is extreme. Apparently it is a hit and miss with this one. I didn't expect much at the price but this example was horrendous. I would not buy again. I prefer not to play the lottery with optics. My suggestion is to try them first and then buy the same one you actually tried not take a chance that one in the box will be the same.

more importantly, how will the image quality be and will it be worth owning? reviews of the P80 were not kind. I'm hoping they have fixed this issue.

Haven't used mine to give you an honest answer on this one Mike, however, since buying mine and reading numerous comments about it I would encourage you to just take it to an establishment such as Scheels or Cabella's or any major sporting store and have them bore sight it for you. Most places will bore sight your rifle/scope combo if you have bought either of them from them at no cost to you. If per chance they charge for this service, it shouldn't be much different than that spent on this device, especially if it turns out to be worthless to you. Food for thought. Good luck guy.

I have problems with my 5x. if your looking at 100 yards I recommend the 7x HOWEVER!!!! BE WARNED my sightmark 5x slide to the side magnifier DOES NOT align with my sightmark reflex sight. This is a common complaint that I have discussed with other owners. Try your luck if you wish but I recommend you buy from a different company.

It's not bad for the money, but if u want something mil spec it's no where close. But if you don't have the money to get gen 1+ or higher monocular it's worth it. Make sure you get a good IR light or filter on ur rig it'll make a world of difference.

It's last years Trophy Cam. Model 119447. I got the one in Camo. I did a lot of research before buying this one. It was a last years left over. Great pictures. I had a friend that just got back from Africa, they were using nothing else but Bushnells on video. I couldn't be more pleased. I paid around $150.00 for it. The only other one I've ever had to compair it to was a Wild Game.

Since you get it for free, not bad. Narrows your view for short range tactical shoots, not enough magnification to help at the 200 yard stations. You would be better off getting the Vortex swing away magnifier. The sight itself is really good.

It is a great sight, I did not have to do anything to it except place it on my rifle and start shooting. It is perfectly "sighted in" from factory up to 150 yards. It is tough as nails and the dot is super bright even under extreme conditions. I have noticed that others have had issues with the sight if they are accustomed to shooting with one eye shut versus both eyes open. Having said all of this, and my two cents worth, the Pro Patrol would be overkill for your blow-back system; a bushnell trophy would work just as good and cost hundreds of dollars less. This sight is designed and built for more demanding platforms. Take care. It is a great sight, I did not have to do anything to it except place it on my rifle and start shooting.

Quick question for all of you who know a little bit more. This is mostly aimed at the guy who used WMM. " Did you lose any quality converting it? " Obviously we all bought this camera b/c it has decent quality but if you lose it what the point. Thanks for the help, Cheers!

Its actually not bad. I sighted in at 25yds and at 50yds. At 50 it was a little faint but you could definitely see it.. make sure you're not using a bright white paper to sight though as it will wash out. I really wasnt even expecting that for the price. It's worth the 12 bucks.

True answer is you get what you pay for. It's an accurate sight and is fun to use,, but if you need it for high precision or active duty use, stick to the upper quality. For a hobby it's a fine sight.
