No batteries are required as the energy efficient AstroScope 9300 draws minimal power from the camcorder's rechargeable battery. The 9300XL transforms dark, moonlit or starlit nights into bright, high resolution scenes easily viewed via the view-finder monitor and recorded. The 9350 system features adapters for many cameras and camcorders. Choose the combination of adapters that you need, based on the cameras that you use, then order only the adapters. This is cost effective, if your night vision requirements call for using more than one type of camera.
Image intensifiers amplify the existing light.
The current high end Gen III Premium will allow viewing in very low light levels. The auto-focus, auto iris control, exposure controls and the optical stabilization will remain intact as will every feature of the camera. The system is designed to use all of the Canon XL mount lenses or EOS mount lenses using an EOS to XL adapter. Because our design fits between the camera body and lens, all controls are maintained. You operate the camcorder as though the night vision module isn't installed.
