Zulus arriving tomorrow

[Plinkalot]

FYI, the Zulus 520R's will arrive at DNT tomorrow.

I just inquired about my order. I ordered the 5-20x so those for sure will be in tomorrow.

I've had mine on order since the 27th and been drooling ever since. HA

It depends on where your attempting to purchase from!

How is the Zulus 5x20 working out?

How is the Zulus 5x20 working out?

The scopes arrived on time but UPS took 2 days to pick them up from DNT - holiday's starting to affect shipping already? Mine is supposed to arrive on the 10th. I'll do a review after I've used it a bit.

Ordered a Zulus 5-20r from Tactical Panda on 11/27 and recieved it on 12/2 just something to consider when ordering one.

Decisions decisions Zulus or Oneleaf NV500?
They both look great, I like the connectivity of the Zulus

 

[Ricklin]

Well the connectivity does not override the resolution. I chose the Oneleaf NV500. The 10% discounts are only 5% now, but did get that 5 off anyway.
I went with the 30mm lens. I greatly dislike the "snout" needed for the 50mm, the 30mm has a built in iris, I'm a photographer and like having aperture control for depth of field. I would like to see a genuine 1:1 lens perhaps they will do that. 15mm should allow 1:1 interestingly enough the short lens are far more costly to make. Given the light sensitivity a small diaphragm will be awesome depth of field.

did happen to get the nv500 commander vs the nv500commander eagle version?
we noticed the same 30mm lens has a different view on each model
30mm nv500 commander 2-26x30
30mm nv500commander eagle 1.5-19.5x30

we were thinking the eagle version may be better for longer range and have a wider field of view.?
the short-range guys were wondering which would be better for them from 12-50 yds.
thanks for any response.

 

[Ricklin]

I have the NV 500 and the mags are indeed 2X-26X with the 30mm. I like the range of magnification just fine. More important to me was the adjustable diaphragm in the lens of the 30mm. The "snout" or the mask is not necessary and can get the lighting just so with a twist of the wrist thanks to the diaphragm. Helps with depth of field as well. I took the NV 500 off my Blitz and put it on the new Pinty, ideal combo, very lightweight rifle with that very heavy scope.

Both the Oneleaf NV500 and the Zulus HD 5-20x with range finder are impressive scopes, but they have some key differences that might influence your choice.

Oneleaf NV500:

• Picture Quality: The NV500 has a larger lens, which provides better picture quality, especially in low-light conditions.
• IR Flashlight: It comes with a powerful, but larger and external, IR flashlight.
• Ballistic Settings: You can input all the ballistic settings by hand, which some users find more convenient than using an app.

Zulus HD 5-20x:

• Form Factor: The Zulus is lighter and has a better form factor, making it easier to handle.
• Range Finder: It includes a laser range finder, which is highly accurate.
• Night Vision: The Zulus also offers excellent night vision capabilities, with a good IR light range.

Both scopes have their strengths, so your choice might depend on whether you prioritize picture quality and manual settings (NV500) or a lighter form factor and integrated range finder (Zulus HD).
both range finders are excellent, but the DNT Zulus might have a slight edge in terms of overall accuracy and integration with the scope.
Which features are most important to you?

 

[Ricklin]

Do bear in mind with these video scopes. "Picture quality" is also the image quality you see through the scope while in use. The monitor in the scope is but a low resolution representation of what the scope can see. I reckon my point is with these devices the photo quality is the image quality.

I'm seriously considering a DNT ZHD520R - ZULUS HD 5-20X Digital Night Vision Scope with Laser Rangefinder and Ballistic Calculator. I have a Zulus 5x20 DN but want the RF feature. So that said, does the BC work? Does it work between 25 and 125 yards and WELL!

You have to fiddle with it but then yes, it does! Sometimes had to cheat it a bit with scope height but once you confirmed it for a given gun/projectile/speed at 2-3 distances it’s spot on (for me).
