FLIR SCION 640 BOSON Thermal Video Camera/Hand Scanner was delivered by the brown UPS truck last night!
  Here is a comparison in size to my old well used FLIR LS-XR scanner:

Is that the manual focus lens version?

Is that the manual focus lens version? Based on using it in my 600 yard horse pasture last night, I am certain I can positive ID hogs and coyotes out past 300 yards with it and detect 3X that. For longer ranges like in a 640 acre peanut patch, the 25mm manual focus would be better. Also, in extremely humid conditions, the 25mm would gather more midwave IR data. |

Thanks
Do you have an opinion on how well it maintains its clarity when you zoom up through the highest zoom levels? The last Flir scout I looked through a couple years ago, seems like they made a significant improvement in its ability to maintain resolution and clear image through the first and even second zoom level. Does this one do the same? |

Please tell me they put an OLED display in that thing!! It has a glass PVS-14 like ocular with rotational diopter adjustments and much better eye relief. The display is high definition Quad-VGA 1280X960 pixel screen. Image quality and resolution is outstanding in all palettes. |

Here is a 40kb pic of a deer at 200 yards in my yard at night @2X with PIP, it is 88 degrees and humidity is 90% dripping wet out....does not do justice to the displayed image.

That is amazing! 24° × 18° FOV.
Is there any way to attach it to a helmet like a breach? |

No way to helmet mount it like my FLIR M-24 640 kit. 
But I can mount it on my camera tripod and plug my little Anker 27,000 mAhr into its USB-C port and scan all night. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: That looks really good. Can you run external power? Video plz ?? Due to super saturated high humidity and oppressive heat and the impending hurricane, videos will be postponed until I get some decent WiFi, rural farm wireless can’t hack posting videos. |

Does it really take six CR123A batteries? It looks like it can run on just two but still...what a hog.
