Whether you're hunting outdoors or simple observing wildlife as part of research, FLIR's Scout II 240 thermal camera is made for letting you see what normally can't be seen.
A handheld, compact and easy-to-use thermal camera, the 240 requires no prior training to use. Just hold up to the eye, and you'll be seeing in thermal! It works by using thermal technology, reading the heat given off by energy sources such as humans, animals or other man-made objects. In practice, this allows the FLIR Scout II 240 to see much better through the dark than traditional nightvision equipment as it doesn't rely on light to see.
Worried about carrying around bulky equipment with you when outdoors? The 240 is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand and is extremely light as well. It's also rated to IP67, protecting it against the effects of the weather.
This thermal camera has a built-in high quality 240 x 160 pixel thermal detector, display resolution of 640 x 480 pixels and comes with several other features such as fast startup (in seconds!), adjustable polarity and a task light so you can see what you're doing in the dark.
