David.evans 5,323 Posted December 20, 2018 Report Share Posted December 20, 2018 Bought this unit and have put it behind a side winder the mag down to 4 or 6 x side parallax to focus no problem Srx on top flood to spot to suit . but no matter what I do I can't get a decent clear image like the ones on u tube or any where as good as Ian B videos where am I going wrong ! any ideas please dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pav 481 Posted December 20, 2018 Report Share Posted December 20, 2018 Have you turned the back focus so the icons on screen are clear first the turn barrel under nv to get xhairs clear then parralax to get pic clear 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IanB 0 Posted December 22, 2018 Report Share Posted December 22, 2018 Yeh like Pav said.. mount the unit to the rifle, adjust the rear eye dioptre unit the icons are sharp, you can fine tune that slightly also later on.... then use the barrel focus ring underneath to get the crosshairs pin sharp and use the scopes side focus to adjust focus of your target at whatever range your shooting at... Once setup you only need to use your side parallax from then on.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Phill-W68 547 Posted December 22, 2018 Report Share Posted December 22, 2018 Still tempted to get one of these as a spotter Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Then mount it to your scope, Re focus to your reticle, try it at say 50yrds first, your parrelex will either need to be on (20yrds or infinity) scope dependent! I've got 1 & use it on my airmax 4-16x50 & airmax 3-9x40 , and only need to focus the screen & centre the reticle, if swapping between scopes ! I absolutely love mine , it's the only night vision I've ever got on with, hope this helps my old mate , all the best Sean 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ray 185 Posted January 4, 2019 Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 If the parallax is adjusted correctly on your scope for the range you are shooting it will make no difference, but if you don't and you also don't mount the 007 squarely to the scope it will have the same issue as moving your head position with just the normal scope.
