For those who want to get into night vision, you either want to get a scope that is like what this guy shows that uses both your eyes, a binocular
version. They are limited on zoom power but a monocular, a one eye version is unusable for you will be blind in a few minutes and they blow out the
eye you are using. The solution is to go with one of these:

It is a second generation that comes close to the third generation at a fraction of the cost. It is different technology so with these you can plug
in your cam and watch through your video cam viewer. It takes more gear to mess with but it is easier on the eyes for long term viewing. You can use
a regular scope, or the cams normal lens most of the time. When you spot movement, you click to the night vision and get a brighter object. I put
both my cam and the scope on two tripods wired together. With traditional scopes, it is tough using adapters if you can find one for your cam and the
bi scopes can't be used with a cam at all and it is nice to get evidence of what you see if you are going to spend hours looking.
