FLIR X8580™ High Definition MWIR Science-Grade Camera

Brand : Teledyne FLIR
Categories : High Performance Cameras

The FLIR X8580 midwave IR camera is designed for scientists and engineers who need to capture detailed imagery of high-speed events, perform custom radiometric measurements, or detect points of failure in composites, solar cells, and electronics. This thermal imaging camera combines 1280 × 1024 HD resolution with fast frame rates and integration times, allowing researchers to record stop motion on fast-moving subjects or rapid temperature changes—whether in the lab or on the test range. With a four-position motorized filter wheel and support for FLIR motorized focus lenses, the X8580 will provide higher quality recordings, save time, and mitigate frustration in dynamic acquisition environments.
