They didn't stop making it, they just made it a LOT less sensitive..
I have one of thier OLD 8mm camcorders that had it, and if I used it on
my wife in a darkened room, and she was wearing a summer-wieght shift or
blouse, it could locate shuch things as nipples, and the more sensitive
areas below the belt, but it isnt at all an xray type thing, more like a
"get the 12 year-olds worked up type of thing".

The newer cameras and camcorders just give you a "night-scope" type b&w
(actually green and white) image.
