Pocket Sized 2nd Generation Night Vision ‘Scope
Design subject to alterations without notice. Product information order number.: 99280 (d)(e)  09/04/AX/F
Combining modern technology with 70
years of optical and miniaturization know-
ledge enabled Minox Germany to design
and produce popular Night Vision devices.
Now, the introduction of the NV 400 into the
range signifies further advances in this field
as this latest ultra-compact addition features
a 2nd Generation optical tube.
Night Vision ‘scopes have many practical
uses from casual after dark nature observa-
tion, hunters and gamekeepers keeping
track of targets and livestock and security
guards keeping a lookout for nocturnal in-
truders, to name but a few.
2nd Generation technology Night Vision
‘scopes produce brighter, clearer images
than their predecessors and coupled with a
2x magnification, the MINOX NV 400 allows
accurate observation in light conditions
when even the human eye cannot perceive
detail.The incorporated Infrared illuminator
allows close-range observation to a distance
of about 50 yards in near total darkness.
The MINOX NV400 comes complete with a
1.6x converter which, when placed over the
front lens, gives the ‘scope a 3.2 x magni-
fication with only negligible image degra-
dation. A video adapter is an optional
accessory and this will fit on nearly all 
cameras with a 37 mm filter thread allowing
recording of the produced image for future
viewing.
The NV 400 can be mounted on a tripod
using the incorporated 1/4 inch tripod 
screw thread, allowing for long periods 
of observation without the need to hand-
hold the ‘scope.
Night vision units are opto-electronical viewing 
devices. Equipped with image intesifier tubes, they
enhance the remaining light at night to enable the
user to see where it is too dark for the human eye.
Functional principle:
1) The remaining light is collected in the lens and
will be focussed on the image intesifier tube. If
the remaining light is too faint, it can be amplified
by an infrared brightener.
2) Inside the image intesifier tube is a high sen-
sitive photo cathode which transforms the 
light energy (Photons) into electrical energy 
(Electrons).
3) A micro channel plate multiples the Electrons 
and hit them to the phosphorus screen at a high
velocity. The collision frees light (Photons) on 
the other side. The light intensity is now much
higher than it was before, it entered the image
intesifier tube.
