Detailed Description

The Digital Ranger 5x42 is the next generation of night vision.  The innovative approach that customers have come to expect from Yukon is evident in the Ranger’s revolutionary digital night vision capabilities; the Ranger has the highest magnification available, and the clearest image, that you just can’t get with traditional night vision.  With the best edge-to-edge resolution on the market, the Ranger rivals the effectiveness of comparable Gen 2 and Gen 3 night vision devices at any range.  The Stealth IR™ invisible infrared illuminator ensures that the beam is invisible to watchful eyes at any range.  What is most amazing about this device is that, unlike ordinary night vision, the Ranger can be used for daytime, as well as nighttime, operation without damaging the device.  The Ranger is designed to be the most versatile unit available, with a durable, compact body and unique innovations including a direct video output for video recording or remote viewing.  The Digital Ranger 5x42 is backed by Yukon’s Limited Lifetime Warranty

Summary

Ranger IR Illuminator
The Ranger is equipped with two independent built-in IR illuminators. One of them functions continuously and is designed for observation under ideal night viewing conditions of a 1/4 moon.	The Additional Pulse (c) high-powered IR illuminator is intended for observation of distant objects under low light conditions, including total darkness. The IR power of the latter can be smoothly adjusted and the IR light intensity level can be stored.
	Brightness Adjustment Wheel The Ranger’s image is shown on a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). Manual adjustment of the LCD brightness is operated with the adjustment wheel
Optics	Video Recording
The 42mm objective lens is distinguished by improved frequency and contrast characteristics. The objective lens made of high-quality optical glass is fully multicoated.	The direct built-in video recording output enables image transmission as well as video recording on peripheral equipment (monitor etc.) while carrying out stationary or mobile observations.
