Mr Fog.Going through the menu list of the DCS-SR, I'm not seeing that the "nightshot" is a feature that the Camera has in the shooting set category.So I think you're asking making movie,or taking picture in total darkness.The Camera has his own led video light,but it does not cover a large area in total darkness, so i bought a Sony battery Video light to connect on the camera,specialy for DCR-SR68.If you have the book which came with the camera when you bought it, you will find all the accessories for the DCR-SR68.hope i've been helpful Regards

No, I haven't used the scope at night. I wouldn't recommend any 40mm scope for night hunting. A 50mm would gather more light but even a 50mm is not the right scope for night hunting. You would need a night vision scope for this.

The aimpoint is built to accept a night scope. I believe the the adjustable dot intensity is the reason it's compatible. I'm assuming that you would really need to dial down the power to see through a night scope. Never tried it though.

Kindof. Its not perfect. Personally I have had a bad experience with one(it fried and wouldn't turn on) but everyone I know that has them absolutely loves them so I give it a 4 star. Remember its cheap. Its no eotech for sure but its worth the money. Its worth it for 22s but risky for high power weapons.

I have not used it at night but it works well at dusk. Cant beat it for the price. You want something that works at night go gen 3 night vision or thermal, but $$$

I'm not sure what nightshot is. This camcorder shoots pretty good video in low lite situations, but may be a bit grainy. On several occassions, i've used the video editing software (Cyberlinks Power Director) to lighten the video a bit when original video was shot in very low light. If you're referring to still photos, this camera does not have a built in flash. While I have used the still photo feature on occasion, I use it mostly for video. Darned good camera for the money.

Good question, I have no experience with the night core, but the securitylng light is awesome.

It does pick up any light that is out there but at night, without any light source, it is hard to see. Not a big deal IMO since you you should not shoot at something if you cant see it....the main thing is that it actually works at 100 yards and is fairly accurate. I was surprised.

As long as you are steady, it is a very good performer in low light. It also has a number of settings you can adjust for the low light situation, and I have gotten some great shots with it. It is excellent in movie mode at night.

There are good reviews of this scope using it deer hunting, I have only used it on small game, and it works great. Good and clear and plenty of light at dusk. keeps zero

It only lights up a small area in total darkness. Low light helps extend ur infrared. But too much light eliminates the night vision effect. This camera also has problems focusing in the dark. I sold mine because it was a major issue.

If by nightvision you mean it can see in total darkness? Then no. But if you got enough lighting it can see as far as 15 feet away. Which is better than most cameras at this price. Especially web cams. If you want an actual nightvision that can see in total darkness you'd be paying a bit for that. The one I got picked out will cost me 150 bucks. They aren't cheap. If you see one cheap, its most likely a scam. All in all i thought this camera was a pretty decent investment for the price. Used 4 of them to keep watch on my property. Particularly this one here is one of the better ones.

It has good range, easily out to 100 yds or more. On Gen 1 night optics you won't find good ones with high powers so you're limited to the range by the fact that low power doesn't increase view target sizes much. Otherwise, you can't beat this one, I love it for the price.

yes it does have night shot and it does a superb job! I would recommend getting the Sony accessory light that has both white light and the infrared light as well. It uses two double A batteries and it puts out in an enormous amount of light. Couple that with the CX nine hundred and it's amazing! I use mine for ghost hunting and it lights up the room like daylight, but it's infrared

Hi, for this Sony camcorder, it doesn't have night shot feature, however you may use "Twilight" settings under scene selection in which it maintains the darkening atmosphere of the distant surroundings in twilight scene. Hope this helps. -Ely

I've had one mounted on a .300 wsm and a .270 win. No problems on either. With the way you're question is worded sounds you may have issues with the mounting system. If so, i strongly advise leupold rings and bases for any scope. But as far as the quality of the dusk & dawn, it's one of my favorites. Seems superior to other banners (imo) and holds its own compared to my nikons. No regrets on my purchase. Gathers light very well when you need it most.

Ive got several sets. They all glow well in the pitch black. No trouble finding sights in dark. Only front sight glows
