Description
Capture your fishing trips and other water-based activities in both extreme low-light conditions as well as in bright sunlight with the Aurora Night Vision Camera from SIONYX. The Aurora uses a 1" type CMOS sensor to record up to 720p video and 0.9MP stills for low-light imaging. Video and stills are captured to a microSD card up to 32GB, and frame rates are selectable at 7.5, 15, 24, 30, and 60 fps.
View your activities in color or monochrome using the Aurora's OLED viewfinder or use the Aurora app and your iOS/Android smartphone for camera control, remote viewing, and to share images. A diopter on the EVF offers a sharp view for users with and without corrective lenses. Features include Daytime, Twilight, and Night modes with the white balance set automatically to each mode. A focus peaking function and a manual focus ring are used to keep your images sharp down to 1'.
The compact, lightweight Aurora has a waterproof rating of IP67, suiting it to fishing, boating, hunting, nature watching, and other outdoor activities. The included rechargeable lithium-ion battery will provide a runtime of up to two hours on a single charge.
What are the main differences between the 3 night vision cameras?
Our current night vision camera line-up includes (1) Aurora Sport (2) Aurora and (3) Aurora Pro.
Aurora Sport
The Aurora Sport (white) is our entry level night vision camera. This camera has the same optical lens and night vision sensor as the Aurora (black), but this camera does not include GPS, is not weapons-rated and does not have loop mode. Additionally, the Aurora Sport comes with a 1-year warranty, instead of the 2-year warranty we offer on the Aurora.
Aurora
The Aurora is currently our flagship product that offers all of our features. The night vision camera has also been weapons-rated and tested on an M4 rifle for 4,000 rounds. The Aurora also comes with a standard 2-year warranty. Both the Aurora Sport and the Aurora perform in near moonless starlight without the use of any IR illuminator.
Aurora Pro
The Aurora Pro is our next-generation night vision camera. This camera, although similar in form factor, has a brand new opitc and low-light CMOS sensor that is rated at more than 2x low-light the performance. Pro will also come with a 32GB SD card and be able to support up to 256GB and also come with 2 batteries, instead of 1. The Aurora Pro also comes with a standard 2-year warranty. Pro is currently available for pre-order.
Is the SIONYX weapon and recoil rated for certain calibers?
The Aurora and Aurora PRO are both weapons-rated. The Aurora and Aurora PRO have been tested on an M4 A5-15 style rifle platform with .223/5.56 caliber at 4,000 rounds. You can mount SIONYX cameras with a Picatinny rail mount using the 1/4”-20 standard mount to nearly any firearm, with the exception of shotguns and air rifles. The Aurora Sport is not rated for any type for weapon use.
Can I pair my SIONYX with an optic setup? Clip-On?
Yes, you can mount your SIONYX with an existing optic setup. When pairing with an optic, you can either place the SIONYX in front of the optic or behind, depending on your personal preference. The camera will sit at 1.5” off the rail with our Picatinny rail mount. We've found that many of our users prefer to pair the SIONYX with a 1x or 3x scope, mounting the SIONYX in front of the scope.
Long Range Night Vision
The SIONYX night vision sensor and optics provide long range visibility as far as the eye can see. Pair it with a 3x magnifier to extend your capability.
Weapon or Helmet Mounted
Pair it with your scope/red dot optic or mount it to your helmet for hands-free use. Pair it with an InfraRed laser aiming device for a more dynamic experience.
Water resistant
All SIONYX night vision devices are IP67-rated for water-resistance. Our devices are built to thrive in water saturated environments.
