This is one of our most popular systems ever - and for good reason. A current U.S. military issue, our versatile second generation starlight AN/PVS-4 is a workhorse! It’s the choice of agencies and teams requiring state-of-the-art, both video and photographic cameras for unmatched cost-effectiveness.
You can use our Photo Adapter to connect it to a 35mm SLR’s 55mm step-up ring - no need for a costly relay lens assembly for 35mm photography. You can use the PVS-4 with an optional relay lens unit on any C-mount video camera. Or use it with the optional bi-ocular eyepiece for extended visual surveillance. Take the same “modular” system with a weapon-mount adapter, and choose reticle cell patterns for either 0.308 cal., 0.223 cal., or just plain cross hairs and mount it on the weapon of your preference for tactical needs.
Automatic Brightness Control (ABC) and Bright Source Protection Circuitry protect the image tube. They are designed to recover rapidly enough from muzzle flash to allow the user to see the round hit the target. Automatic Gain Control maintains uniform image illumination during changing light levels. The projection-type reticle is internally adjustable for windage, elevation and reticle brightness.
