The Recon 550R is one of the most compact and ergonomic digital night vision devices available in the market. The Recon 550R features high light gathering capacity (F/d = 1.0). Combined with large magnification, this ensures one of the best viewing distances among budget NV devices. Model Recon 550R is equipped with an integrated video recorder to capture image observed and a jack to couple with external sources. The jack functions both in video out mode and video in mode. Video out mode allows video recording without use of adaptors and camcorders or cameras; video in mode can be employed to transmit image via radio channel from remote cameras to Recon’s display.
