Photon 6.5x review - Sightmark Photon XT 6.5x50 Digital NV Rifle Scope

Have not yet actually mounted this scope as of yet for field trials but from what I can see it looks like it will be a lot of fun. The choice of reticle styles and colors at the push of a button are very interesting.
It is a fixed 6 1/2 power and I chose a fixed power for a the following reasons:
(1) I have heard there were some problems with other scopes that had variable power ranges
(2) at the ranges this unit is effective at you will not need more power than 6 1/2 magnification
(3) the price was right
I went out at night and looked down the street with it and it is like looking through a viewfinder of a B&W camera with a rifle reticle. Really kind of cool. Not suited for military or high risk security work because if you use the Infrared Illuminator anyone else with a similar electronic scope will bust your position.
I will try to submit another report later this year after I have actually used it in the field.
Thanks.
