An imaging or viewing system, which automatically compensates for bright spots, which tend to overload or saturate imaging system. The system can be used with imaging type tracking systems, viewers and various types of optical devices which heretofore have been unable to provide satisfactory performance due to saturation or overloading of an imaging device due to bright spots, i.e., laser radiation flares or sunlight. The system in accordance with the invention is configured such that reflected radiation is imaged onto a first image plane without dividing the incoming radiation into two optical paths. A digital mirror device, i.e., is disposed at the first image plane. The radiation level of each pixel in the image plane is compared with a fixed threshold on a pixel by pixel basis and used to generate a mirror drive signal that automatically reduces the reflectivity of the corresponding mirror pixel to compensate for bright spots.
