A Photonis tube is more than good enough for airsoft use, also good for those who can't access ITAR restricted US tubes. There is still a noticeable performance gap between European/Russian tubes and modern US tubes - they seem to be 15-20 years behind US tech when it comes to performance.
I looked through a Photonis, I was impressed. It is definitely comparable to US OMNI IV. When I compared it in low light to my MX-10160C, I had less noise, more clarity, better contrast, less fishbowling, better edge clarity etc.
Problem with shit on the internet is that its 90% hype and 10% actual performance.
