Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose PARD thermal or digital night vision?
Thermal imaging reads heat, so it needs no light and shows a warm animal at midnight or at noon. Digital night vision reads reflected light on a CMOS sensor and shows the scene in color or black and white; in full darkness it relies on an 850 nm infrared illuminator, which some PARD models include and others take as an add-on. The Osprey 4K binoculars carry both.
Do PARD devices record video?
Yes, photos and video. Most save to a microSD card of up to 128 GB, and the Leopard 256 and Ocelot 256 have 32 GB built in. Every PARD monocular, binocular and riflescope here except the Leopard 256 connects over Wi-Fi to the PardVision2 app, and most of the riflescopes start recording when they sense recoil.
Can PARD night vision riflescopes ship to California?
Not all of them. We do not ship the Night Stalker models that come with an infrared illuminator, or the IL1 and TL3 illuminators, to California addresses (California Penal Code 468), and their product pages say so in the delivery note. The other PARD products ship to California as usual.
