It takes a few uses to get the hang of it. In moonlight, it was really good, but grainy which Gen 1 products are, and in low light, I turned on the IR light and could see clearly over 100 yards away. I shined the IR light on animals in a field and they never noticed it. The light is invisible to the human eye, not a bright color which I had expected. Controls are easy to use and focusing it is easy, once you do the initial focus setup per the manual.
Pros: Good price - good quality for a Gen 1 scope
Cons: Image is somewhat grainy, but that's what Gen 1 is
