Thanks 6MM06.....these were recorded with a high-definition camera behind the ocular and as you indicated, not quite as good as what you can see with your naked eye. These do not have recording capability as you have noted. I will also be posting the same reviews on the Armasight Nemesis 4X and 6X in white phosphor, the D-740/D-760, and the HTRN Signature Series Scopes platformed on both the MX-160 and PVS-14. Hopefully will have them all posted within the next week. All of these reviews (including the Vampire and Spark) were recorded under identical conditions so some good comparable footage for someone shopping for Gen1, Gen 2+, or Gen 3. Stay Tuned !! Kevin
