The big 50 mm objective lens plus its anti-reflective coating is crucial in allowing the device to magnify at 5x while still be able to absorb as much light as possible. It is functional of course but it can still be improved to make it a lot easier to use.

The Night Owl Pro NexGen Night Vision Binocular is supposed to be very easy to use because it utilizes only one focusing wheel for both lenses, however, the focusing wheel is somewhat buried between the lenses and does not turn smoothly. This night vision binocular has the highest magnification at 5x, the biggest objective lens on our list at 50 mm that easily absorbs light, one of the longest viewing range at 75-125 yards, a decent field of view at about 15 degrees or 53 feet at a distance of 200 feet, and the longest battery life at 40-80 hours depending on the usage of the IR illuminator.Īll of the above-combined results into images that are almost similar to the images produced by a Gen 2 or higher night vision devices which are why this night vision binocular is a great alternative for those who are dying to have a Gen 2 device but could not afford one.

However, we have to look at its overall features and functionality to be able to give it a proper rating. In terms of clarity, visibility, and viewing range, the Night Owl Pro NexGen Night Vision Binocular is the best if not the best among Gen 1 night vision binoculars that I've ever come across - for this alone I would have given it a rating of 5/5.
