The 320×240, 12 µm thermal sensor with a 50Hz refresh rate delivers clear thermal images with smooth motion. It detects standard-sized objects up to 1300 meters away, even in complete darkness or harsh weather, providing dependable performance for nature observation.

The 28mm F1.2 objective lens works with the sensor to deliver precise thermal detection. The 2x–8x digital zoom allows both step-by-step and continuous adjustment, offering control over magnification and field of view depending on observation needs.
High-Contrast AMOLED Display
A 640×400 AMOLED screen displays images with improved clarity and color. It maintains performance in extreme temperatures and enhances image quality in low-visibility environments.
Eight Customizable Color Palettes
Eight palette options, including White Hot, Black Hot, and Rainbow, adapt to different tasks and conditions. Users can choose the best view mode for object detection, recognition, or night-time use.
Long-Lasting Quick-Swap Battery
The APS3 rechargeable battery powers the device for up to 7 hours. It’s easy to remove, replace, and charge via USB or a dedicated charger, ensuring continuous use during long field sessions.
Display Off Mode with Instant Start-Up
Save power and stay discreet with Display Off mode, which dims the screen without fully shutting down the unit. A short press of the power button reactivates the display in 3 seconds.
Durable Magnesium Alloy Housing
The magnesium alloy body protects internal components from shocks, moisture, and heat while also dissipating excess heat from the electronics. This ensures long-term reliability in demanding environments.
