How does Owls night vision compare to modern light amplification devices that can be used by humans(on the person)?

The difference is electronic night vision easily detects into the infrared
Owls are a lot like us in that their low end vision drops off around 700nm

What about clarity of image(i.e. owl can see 10-100times what a human sees in dark) what about the light amp. devices that you can carry on you?

they have a reflective layer to get more electrons to an excited state. a basic electronic sensor is already very good at the photoelectric effect so it's not a problem to induce electric signals at even lower photon energies.

Owls are angels.

Pretty impressive tech
