The AGM F14 Fusion Night Vision Monocular Gen 3 White Phosphorwith a Gen 3 white phosphor image intensifier tube is a device that can observe and search targets at night, in darkness, under extreme environments such as smoke, fog, rain, and snow. It can be widely applied to scenarios including patrol, search and rescue, drug interdiction, and suspect apprehension. Due to its waterproof capability, the device performs well, even in severe weather conditions and challenging environments. The enhanced targeting image is produced by both the Gen 3 white phosphor image intensifier tube and the 12μm high-sensitivity thermal detector with 640 x 512 resolution.

The F14 can be used as a handheld device or mounted on a helmet. The user-friendly interface and comfortable and ergonomic operating controls make adoption and application of the device incredibly simple. The device offers different variants of image view: thermal, I² night vision, and enhanced fusion image that can be easily adapted, depending on different environmental conditions. The F14 is also equipped with manual gain control, which adjusts the image brightness, providing the highest possible image quality, even in changing light conditions. The monocular uses two 18650 rechargeable lithium batteries in the external holder for up to 8 hours of operating time in fusion image mode. In I² night vision mode, the device can run for more than 60 hours.

Q: 1. Does this camera output live HDMI so that I could stream with it, or connect to a HDMI transmitter to use in a broadcast system?

A: The Minolta MN220NV Full HD Night Vision Camcorder with 16x Digital Zoom (Purple) does not support clean HDMI output for a broadcast system. When connected to an HDMI device, the camcorder's screen will turn off and all of the menus and settings will be displayed on the HDMI video feed.

Q: 2. is it more cost effective to buy this over the davinci dongle? I keep hearing about people using it for both fusion and davinci.

A: I don't think you can use the Fusion Studio dongle for DaVinci Resolve. The "Studio" version of Fusion has a few more features and workflow options than the version of Fusion integrated into Resolve, but no real editing features. There might be a comparison list at Black Magic's site. You could also search out answers at a site called SteakUnderwater (user forum).
