    Hello folks,

    Does anyone have any experience using a Digital night vision ranger 5×42, Yukon with a Canon 7D to record what is being viewed through the night vision goggle.

    There is a video out on the 7D but no video in! Does anyone know of a work around? Has anyone recorded to a 7D from on external source. The NV goggles has a Video output jack and it says in its literature that it is possible to record to external devices.

    It is the 7D aspect that I am looking for help on.

    Thank you in advance

    Kind Regards

    Samuel

    You’d probably have better luck trying to connect them optically. But, yeah, you probably need to find a camera or recording device with video input.
