Thank you very much! The holographic sight uses lasers to project the image above the emitter where the red dot projects the image on the lens. It looks like a red dot on the glass where the holographic looks like a floating image inside the optic.
Hey @gingerd4321, we saw this comment and thought we could help explain, with some detail, exactly what you're seeing; So, the human eye can generally detect flicker or stutter at refresh rates below 60Hz, which can result in noticeable discomfort or a perception of lag. However, at refresh rates of 60Hz and above, the display appears smooth to the naked eye, and flicker becomes literally undetectable. "Why does the video camera see and even accentuate the flicker?" A video camera can detect and even accentuate differences in refresh rates due to how cameras and displays capture and display frames. Cameras record video at specific frame rates, such as 24fps, 30fps, or 60fps, and if this frame rate is not synchronized with the refresh rate of the display (such as in a holographic sight), it can cause a mismatch that leads to visible flicker or banding effects. This occurs because the camera captures different parts of the display during each refresh cycle, creating irregularities in the recorded video. Additionally, a camera's shutter speed, which determines how long the sensor is exposed to light for each frame, can play a role. If the shutter speed is fast enough, it can capture the momentary transitions between frames of the holographic display, making flicker or strobing effects more noticeable. These effects aren't usually perceptible to the human eye, as we process visual information continuously, while the camera samples light in discrete intervals. The human brain, through persistence of vision, blends images over time, effectively smoothing out flicker that happens too quickly to detect. In contrast, cameras record exactly what occurs, frame by frame, making any flicker more apparent. Additionally, many digital cameras, particularly those with CMOS sensors, use a rolling shutter that captures images line by line rather than all at once. This can amplify the flicker effect, especially with high refresh rate displays, producing visual artifacts like flickering bands that appear in the recorded footage but aren't noticeable to the naked eye. In essence, cameras capture transitional moments between frames that human vision overlooks, making those effects more pronounced in video recordings. Our NEO HH1 refresh rate is considerably north of 60HZ and this is why you do not notice it at all with the naked eye... Please let us know if you have any questions or if this helps.
Great Video Brother I am so impressed with this optic.
Thank you brother. I’m excited to get some more rounds through it.
I need to get one in to see how she does!
It is a very impressive optic. Not sure how it would stand up to a TN Tactical test though. 🤣
Just found your channel tonight. Good review. This optic has my interest. So what is the main difference between a holographic and red dot?

Is it a little smaller than the Eotech ??
@@trenttaylor3838 it is. I’ll do another video soon and go over the dimensions
Perfect MP5 optic
@@navrhy3075 agreed
Nice job! I don’t think it’s priced right, but that’s not your issue.
budget my azz how is $479, budget when I can get an EOTECH for around the same price, depending on where you purchase it.
It’s $340 right now luckily
$319 on Amazon. Tempting. I think $479 was just the MSRP
At 1:48 you can see how bad the refresh rate is!
That's likely due to the camera. You'd need to see it in person before you judge it. Geez. SMH

Saw that too. Think I will just stick with Eotech.
Dude you can literally see Eotech do this on the reviews of those as well. 😂
Do me a favor and look at your computer screen with your iPhone.
