Is this considered a holographic sight? Is there a difference in reflex and holographic?

It is not a true holographic sight like an eotech. ..where the image is created between 2 thin panes of glass. The sight mark is a red dot still where a beam is projected on the glass. It is a good red dot for the price though.

Unlike a laser or red dot sights (reflex), the holographic image projects no forward light onto the target and thus no position revealing light. The projected reticle is only visible by the operator. The operator remains completely hidden downrange even against night vision systems.

I do not wear my glasses when I use my Firefield. I use the units focusing method. I guess it would depend on your prescription.

It is indeed a picture of the reflex, which is what I purchased and received. Weird I didn't catch that, I guess I bought on photo alone. In any case, I do stand by what I said, even though Amazon got the title and description wrong. :)

Not sure, I dont think I ever used it. After turning it on and seeing 3-4 red dots, I took it off permanently and bought a real holo sight.

the only buttons on side are for left to right adjustment of scope and up and down.....the turn on and color adjustments are unfortunately located right behind scope or to the rear...which is ok if you do not have a EO TECH magnifier.....it presents a tight fit....you almost have to tilt magnifier to the side position to turn on the transverse.....I do have a night vision scope as well...have not used the EO tech with it yet......hope that helps

Beware if you are purchasing this for the night vision. I did a little research and in the picture of the product at amazon it has a button with nv on it, for night vision. It is the wrong picture they are showing a Holographic Hybrid Sight I EXPS3-4 with G33.STS Magnifier which does have night vision, the Eotech HHS ll (EXPS2-2 with G33 3x Magnifier) does not.

Well. I haven't tried any other units to have a point of comparison but, in my opinion, it is acceptable. It isn't like looking through a $3000 set of night vision optics or anything but it looks more than clear enough for me. We can see what is going on in (i.e. if our child has rolled over or if something is close enough to be a danger. Our camera is mounted at about 7.5 ft high on the wall above one end of the bed. We can't necessarily make out facial expressions but can generally see what is going on. Hope that helps.

After you response or concern I got out my flashlight and yes you are correct there is 2 optics one pointed forward and one point back. The one point back is much more counter sunk inside and I didn't notice. Sorry

I purchased this sight system for a son. He seems to like it and has had no problems with the sighting system. Hope this helps you out.

Yes, these are radio transceivers so, unlike the optical trigger on most flash units, they work at 360 degrees from camera don't require line-of-sight.

Apparently there are several answers to this one. My guess is that some of these sights work good and are parallax free. Others, on the other hand, are not. Given that it's cheap, this doesn't surprise me. Anyhow, the one I purchased is definitely NOT parallax free. The dot moves when I change the position of my head. Of course, it would be nice if they just put this little note in the product description.

Close one eye and hold an empty toilet paper tube up to the other. If that works for you, you're good. All NVGs with a single objective lens have this "view". 0 periferal vision, 0 stereo optic vision. But with a decent Infrared light, they are still very, very cool. Jim

I think it "works", although I don't think it is thermal vision. As soon as we got them I went into our bedroom and darkened it. Things you couldn't see with the naked eye were "visible" with the Eye Clops. This was pretty neat, but the other features were a bit cheesy. We returned all three that we had ordered.

The sight is VERY still. It will take some pressure in order to flip the views. I almost ended up bending mine. I would avoid these sights in my opinion.

Forget about this. It's a piece of NOTHING.. visiion is much worst.. mine came uncalibered so it's impossible to use both eyes... it worth what it cost.. hehe

You can get the laser sight or the reflex sight (the one on top) from amazon, ebay, or airsplat.com. Amazon and Ebay are cheaper. Just type in reflex sight

Yes, if you have a clear line of sight to the object you want to see. If you mean something on the ground, remember that the horizon may be an obstruction depending on the distance, eye's hight, and the target's hight.
