The HIKMICRO ALPEX range is designed to provide digital observation during daylight, twilight and darkness. Unlike conventional optical rifle scopes, ALPEX models use electronic imaging sensors to capture and display an image.

During daylight, compatible models provide colour imaging. In low-light conditions, digital night vision modes allow continued observation, with an appropriate infrared illuminator helping to improve visibility in darkness.

The range includes different generations and configurations, with variations in sensor technology, objective lens size, magnification and additional features.

HIKMICRO ALPEX A40E & A50E

The ALPEX A40E and A50E models offer digital day and night vision in traditional rifle scope-style housings. Available 4K versions provide high-resolution digital imaging, with different objective lens sizes to suit individual preferences.

HIKMICRO ALPEX A50EL LRF

The ALPEX A50EL combines 4K digital imaging with an integrated laser rangefinder. This allows users to measure distance directly through the scope without relying on a separate handheld rangefinding device.

HIKMICRO ALPEX S A50T-S

The ALPEX S A50T-S is another digital day and night vision scope within the wider ALPEX family, offering an alternative configuration for users seeking a conventional rifle scope-style design.

The HIKMICRO ALPEX Lite range focuses on providing digital day and night vision technology in a compact, practical format.

The ALPEX Lite A40EL 4K LRF combines high-resolution digital imaging with integrated laser rangefinding, making it a useful option for users who want both observation and distance measurement within a single scope.

When comparing the ALPEX Lite with other ALPEX models, consider the overall weight, dimensions, imaging specification, magnification and intended shooting application.

The HIKMICRO ALPEX Pro range offers advanced digital day and night vision imaging for users seeking additional performance and features.

Available models include the ALPEX Pro A50P and A50PL, with different configurations and capabilities.

The ALPEX Pro A50P is available with a 12MP digital imaging specification, while the A50PL provides an alternative model within the Pro family.

When choosing between ALPEX Pro models, compare the sensor specification, low-light performance, objective lens, integrated features and battery system.

4K digital night vision scopes use high-resolution electronic imaging sensors to capture detailed images. The increased resolution can help retain visual detail when observing through a digital display or using digital magnification.

However, sensor resolution alone does not determine image quality. Lens performance, sensor sensitivity, image processing and available illumination all influence the final image.

HIKMICRO offers several ALPEX 4K models, including the A40E, A50E, A50EL and selected Lite configurations.

When comparing models, consider both daytime image quality and performance in low-light conditions rather than relying on the 4K designation alone.

Integrated Laser Rangefinders (LRF)

Selected HIKMICRO ALPEX digital scopes include integrated laser rangefinders, allowing users to measure distance through the scope.

Within this range, LRF-equipped models include the ALPEX A50EL and ALPEX Lite A40EL. Always check the individual product specification for the exact rangefinder capabilities.

Digital Reticles

Digital rifle scopes can offer electronically displayed reticles and different aiming configurations. Available reticle patterns, colours and adjustment features vary by model.

Recording & Connectivity

Selected HIKMICRO ALPEX scopes offer image capture, video recording and wireless connectivity. These functions can be useful for reviewing observations and recorded footage.

Battery Performance

Battery arrangements vary between ALPEX generations and models. Check the individual product specification for battery type, operating time and whether rechargeable or replaceable batteries are included.

Digital night vision and thermal imaging are different technologies designed for different observation requirements.

Digital Night Vision

Digital night vision uses an electronic sensor to capture available light and produce an image. In very dark conditions, a compatible infrared illuminator can improve visibility.

Digital imaging can provide detailed visual information about an animal, object or surrounding environment when lighting conditions are suitable.

Thermal Imaging

Thermal imaging detects infrared radiation emitted by objects and converts temperature differences into a visible thermal image. It does not require visible light or an infrared illuminator to detect heat signatures.

Thermal scopes are particularly useful for detecting heat signatures, while digital night vision can provide more natural visual detail.

Explore our HIKMICRO Thermal Scopes to compare the different technologies.

Choosing the right ALPEX digital scope depends on your intended use, preferred features and budget.

• ALPEX 4K: A choice for users prioritising high-resolution digital imaging.
• ALPEX Lite: Worth considering where compact dimensions and practical handling are important.
• ALPEX Pro: Designed for users looking for advanced digital imaging and additional features.
• LRF models: Suitable for users who want integrated distance measurement.
• Objective lens: Consider lens configuration, field of view and magnification characteristics.

Also consider infrared illuminator compatibility, mounting requirements, battery performance and the supplied accessories before selecting a model.

Are all HIKMICRO ALPEX scopes digital?

Yes. The ALPEX range consists of digital day and night vision rifle scopes rather than thermal imaging scopes.

Can HIKMICRO ALPEX scopes be used during the day?

Yes. ALPEX digital scopes are designed for daytime as well as night-time observation, with daytime colour imaging available on compatible models.

Do ALPEX scopes need an infrared torch?

ALPEX scopes can operate using available light, but an appropriate infrared illuminator is generally beneficial in darkness. Performance depends on the model and environmental conditions.

Which HIKMICRO ALPEX scopes have an LRF?

The ALPEX A50EL 4K LRF and ALPEX Lite A40EL 4K LRF include integrated laser rangefinders. Check individual product specifications for rangefinder performance and functionality.

Is ALPEX thermal or digital night vision?

ALPEX is digital night vision. HIKMICRO thermal imaging rifle scopes are available separately within ranges such as STELLAR, THUNDER and NEOS.

What is the difference between ALPEX Lite and ALPEX Pro?

ALPEX Lite and ALPEX Pro are different product families with variations in design, imaging specifications and features. Compare the exact models to determine which is most suitable.

Do HIKMICRO ALPEX scopes record video?

Many ALPEX models support video recording and image capture. Recording features and storage specifications vary between models.

Do HIKMICRO digital scopes include mounts?

Mounting arrangements and included accessories vary by model. Check the individual product's What's in the Box section before purchasing additional mounts.

What warranty comes with HIKMICRO ALPEX scopes?

Manufacturer warranty terms depend on the product and applicable conditions. Refer to the individual product listing and HIKMICRO warranty documentation for the relevant coverage.
