Why has the colour video look blue? I did one last week at a similar time, and it appeared in full colour, like daylight. Maybe a bit more ambient light in the area

Due to the fact it was really gloomy, getting toward dark, and sleeting.
That's why you have to try these things for yourself, online videos and reviews can't do it all and may not reflect your own experience in your scenarios and conditions.

It's a difficult thing to satisfy everybody's requests for footage. People live in different parts of the country, on any one day the lighting is different so won't produce a video that shows off a scopes potential. Then prospective buyers compare a video that's taken late spring to a winter video from another scope. That's why what @Varminter is saying it's best if you are really interested to try and get out there yourself
We can try our best to get side by side videos but that is reliant on kind owners or dealers providing equipment for us to do it.
I'm not in a position to go out and buy an Alpex 4k or any other scope people want to see, so I can have it on hand just to do side by side videos.
Ii managed to arrange a Night vision thermal night last week where I had on display all of DNT's products along with one or two Hik products. The evening was a write off as it rained so much you couldn't see a thing and any time we turned on the IR all we saw was flash back. The Thermal was just a disaster.

To tag onto that, a lot of YouTubers seem to be loaned stuff to ‘review’ or buy things and send them back, so have access to this stuff without spending their own money, or are in the retailer/manufacturers pocket.

Have modified my throw lever for the Zulus 4K, I'm very happy with it now, improved profile fit and the finish.
I have just put an advert in the Optics sales pages, titled.
Made 10 as a single run to keep cost down. each one has been checked on my scope for fit (its the best way I can think of for confirmation of fit).

Yesterday my DNT 4K was arivered. What a very good scope did they make. I have also the alpex lite but the dnt is a big class better then the alpex. Much sharper view, a smoother turretwiel, Good structure for the menu, solid mounts, bigger battery's much and much better oculair relief en view. All i can say it a very good scope!! I give the DNT 4K zulus a 9 and the Alpex lite a 7,5. Maybe a small negatief comment is the front focuslensring that feels not so smooth. But with a trewlever you can print or buy a fischer coaster it is no problem!

First time out yesterday (because it stopped raining !) and used in anger 
with the zt4k and it was brilliant… (airgun distances)
Easy to use …
I tried both with a 940 vcsel and 850 led ir …the led ir won hands down … the led was a smooth more realistic picture where as the vcsel makes the image frosty / speckled.
It’s all you’ll need at airgun ranges

Neither unless you buy a package from a dealer. R

You have to buy an ir of your choice

In my opinion (airgun ranges ) you don’t need much ir as the scope seems to suck up the light … my led ir is 850 .. but im sure a 940 led would be plenty and better for rats

I've got a Brinyte T28 LED IR torch for sub-12 use, with a lever to flick between 850nm /940nm /white.
But for longer range use the Ludicrous Lumens Wraith V3 ESL is my fave IR torch and is perfect, especially with Andy's lightweight fully adjustable mount.
Cheers. Russ
