We just pulled both of these out to do a direct comparison. The two models have nearly identical resolution. The only way to ever see is difference is to put them both on
tripods against a resolution chart with a trained eye, and then you still probably would not see a difference.
The
Yukon is a little larger, but is easier to hold in your right hand and focus with your left. The
Bushnell is easier to hold in the left hand and focus with the right.
The
Yukon has a larger lens on the IR Illuminator, and we could not determine if there was a noticable difference between the IR illuminators on the 2 models.
The
Yukon comes with both an AC power adapter and a DC cigarette lighter adapter. Whether the addition of these two parts is worth the extra $80 is up to you.
