Sightmark SM17005 Shade Mini Thermal Scope Black 3.5x 30mm 1-8x Zoom 256x192 Resolution

The Sightmark Shade 3.5-28x30 Thermal Riflescope delivers big performance in a compact footprint.Built for hunters who want clarity, reach, and reliability after dark, this upgraded model features a higher-resolution 1280×720 FLCOS display and a larger 30mm objective lens than the 2-16x version, giving more detail and a tighter 8.7° field of view for identifying heat signatures at extended distances.

Its 256×192 thermal sensor, paired with <50 mK NETD sensitivity at 50 Hz, pulls usable contrast out of fog, humidity, and brush.The scope’s revolutionary Resolution Enhancement mode further improves image clarity by sharpening edges and tightening fine detail, making the most of the sensor’s output when trying to separate an animal from the background or sift through cluttered terrain.

With a 3.5x optical zoom and up to 8x digital magnification, the Shade 3.5-28x30 handles everything from slow scanning to long-range positive identification.Onboard video recording and support for up to 256GB of storage let you document every track and shot.

Its aluminum housing mounts to any Picatinny rail, and two CR123A batteries provide up to 4.4 hours of runtime, with unlimited operation through 5V USB power.At just over 20 ounces, the Shade is light enough for long hikes and tough enough for hard use in the stand or saddle.
