DNT Optics NVMD-C200 Night Vision Multi-Purpose Device – Practical Night Vision for Hunters, Landowners, and Budget Shooters

The DNT Optics NVMD-C200 is a digital night vision multi-purpose device built for hunters, landowners, and shooters who want real nighttime capability without spending thousands of dollars. This unit combines four practical roles into one compact device, allowing it to be used as a standalone night vision scope, red dot magnifier, clip-on night vision device, and action camera.

Whether you’re managing land, controlling foxes, raccoons, varmints, or predators, hunting hogs, or doing nighttime target practice, the NVMD-C200 provides useful, adaptable night vision that works in real-world conditions—especially when paired with infrared illumination.

Real-World Field Use With IR Illumination

This is where the NVMD-C200 truly separates itself from many budget night vision options.

We’ve used this unit with built-in IR lights mounted on our truck, and with IR illumination turned on, we were able to drive across open fields confidently using the NVMD-C200. Fence lines, terrain changes, tree lines, and obstacles were clearly visible, making nighttime navigation possible without white light.

That same performance applies to:

• Moving through fields or farm roads at night

• Approaching hogs or predators quietly

• Navigating property under the cover of darkness

• Land and farm use where IR lighting is already available

For hunters and landowners who already run IR lights, the NVMD-C200 becomes a very practical tool for nighttime movement, observation, and setup.

Designed for Practical Night Use – Not Just One Scenario

The NVMD-C200 is often chosen for closer-range tasks, but it is not limited to one distance or one purpose.

What it does best:

• Provides a clear, usable image for practical night tasks

• Works very well with IR illumination

• Allows users to observe, move, and shoot at night

• Covers a wide range of land, farm, and hunting needs

With adequate IR support, the NVMD-C200 can be used well beyond basic close-range work, making it useful for:

• Predator and varmint control

• Hog hunting setups

• Property monitoring and navigation

• Nighttime target practice and plinking

This is not thermal, and it is not Gen 2 or Gen 3 analog night vision—but for a digital night vision device at this price point, it offers real capability, not just a novelty image.

Four Ways to Use One Device

The NVMD-C200 adapts easily to different setups and needs.

Standalone Night Vision Scope

Use the NVMD-C200 as a complete digital night vision scope for scanning, observing, and shooting at night.

Red Dot Magnifier

Mount it behind a red dot or holographic sight to add night vision capability while keeping your existing optic setup.

Clip-On Night Vision Device

Clip the NVMD-C200 in front of a daytime optic to convert your rifle to night vision without removing or re-zeroing your scope.

Action Camera

Built-in photo and video recording with recoil-activated capture allows you to document hunts, pest control, or night shooting without additional equipment.

Ideal for Landowners, Farmers, and Budget-Minded Hunters

The NVMD-C200 fills a role many night vision products overlook. It’s ideal for people who want:

• Affordable night vision for land and farm use

• A way to see and move at night with IR lighting

• One device that can scan, shoot, and record

• Practical night capability without a high price tag

This makes it especially useful for:

• Fox and raccoon control

• Varmint and predator management

• Hog hunting on a budget

• Checking property or livestock at night

• Nighttime target practice and recreational shooting

Display Modes for Comfort and Visibility

The NVMD-C200 offers multiple viewing modes so users can tailor the image to conditions and personal preference:

• Full Color (Day Mode)

• Black & White Night Mode

• Green Phosphor Style

• White Phosphor Style

These modes help improve contrast and reduce eye fatigue during extended nighttime use.

Recording, Power, and Mounting

The NVMD-C200 includes 32GB of internal storage and supports recoil-activated video recording, ensuring important moments are captured automatically.

Power is supplied by a rechargeable 18650 battery, and the unit includes a quick-detach Picatinny mount for easy installation and removal. Wi-Fi connectivity allows live view, playback, and file transfer through the DNT mobile app.
