This is what i would call a normal distance, so its 100 M to the dlg building, and the horizontal distance to the power plant chimney is 300 M ( probably a bit more if you can remember your Pythagoras, but i cant as the 9.5 years in school was just time i needed to forget as quickly as possible )
The recording is made in light rain using my SG9665GC dashcam as video source ( aside for bulky IP cameras the best low light camera i have )
I must say this Manker U 21 are really growing on me, if i was a woman i might even do some nasty stuff with it :laughing:
O i also like the P 36 at 100 M which i think is what you might be able to spot some movement without the light, then it do alright and its spill are fine for personal navigation towards the target.
I am now contemplating butchering the HID torch battery to get to the 18650 batteries inside it.
The U21 shoots almost like an aspheric. It would be far more useful if the beam width were adjustable, but Im sure it has its uses. Thanks for taking the time to compare!
Just made a new recording tonight with my P 36 and U21 but something went wrong so i just have a little at the end with the U21 at min then off and then on and then ramping it up to max.
And then some streetlight to demo what the camera do on its own with whats there of light.
Will try to get some new captures on the graveyard tomorrow.
Here is a better video of my trip to the graveyard tonight just before midnight.
There are some noise in the footage when its really dark as the IMX 291 sensor desperately try to make darkness appear bright.
Add a little light and its not half bad, add a whole light post and you can see in the footage what you can with your eyes not factoring in the wide angle on the camera that make things appear to be further away than they really are.
