Guide TK612 Gen2 Thermal Imaging Monocular
The Guide TK612 is a Guide TK Gen2 Thermal Imaging Monocular optimised for ecology applications. As such it includes a wide-angle 10mm lens, 640 x 480 IR detector, 30mk thermal sensitivity, and patented image processing technology which delivers sharp, highly detailed thermal imaging even in complex scenes. Furthermore, to ensure easy subject identification, the Guide TK612 features a powerful 8x smooth zoom, pseudo-colour adjustment, six thermal palettes, multiple scene modes (Natural, Enhanced, and Highlight), and a picture-in-picture mode. It also offers approximate ranging and includes a built-in laser indicator and illuminator. The footage is visible on the TK612’s 0.4-inch, 1280x960px full-colour display and can be recorded to the thermal monocular or streamed via Wi-Fi and the Guide TrackIR App. The Guide TK612 Gen2 Thermal Imaging Monocular is a powerful, practical IR imager perfect for ecologists.

Guide TK612 Customer Reviews
"I jumped at the chance to get a 10mm Guide Track 612 thermal scope because I already own a 19mm Guide Track 19 and although I am very happy with its quality, its narrow field of view is a real drawback when surveying buildings as you need to position it really far back which is often impossible. I love how much of the building I can now get in the new 10mm [TK612] scope and the [following] photo shows a comparison between the two that I did by positioning the scopes side by side looking at the same building. You can see the 19mm only gets the corner in whereas the 10mm gets almost the whole building in. This will save so much time because I just have one camera to set up and 1 set of footage to review instead of two sets - it's a game changer!" ~ Jean Oudney, Myotis Bat Ecology
