In Hungary and EU countries, the trade, possession, and use (e.g. for hunting) of night vision and thermal imaging products suitable for targeting, but especially scope products, is limited and sometimes prohibited. Please find out about the regulations in force in your country and follow their changes. Rules of use for hunting HERE! InfiRay Mate - thermal camera front end with spectacular and practical modifications InfiRay came out with the successor of the Clip series, the Mate thermal camera front end series. Why do we recommend it? Because it looks very good in its category, it is light, compact and practical. Because it is absolutely ideal for short scatterers and even for wildlife, with excellent image quality. Because it comes with memory, photo, video and WiFi sharing Because several shooting profiles can be saved in one device. Because it has an extremely innovative, removable / hand-adjustable row of operating buttons. High-quality, elegant, timeless design. Recommended for daytime scopes in the 1x - 8x magnification range. The InfiRay Mate MAL38 is an infrared thermal camera unit equipped with a sensor that has been renewed in every detail and polished to perfection, and whose housing has undergone innovative changes based on customer feedback. Extremely compact, extra light, extremely robust design. Thanks to its imaging technology - unlike night vision devices - it does not require an external light source, and its operation is not negatively affected by strong light effects. Image quality is impressive on the Mate. The experience provided by the display is more detailed, more precise and more spectacular than ever before. Compared to its predecessor, the renewed OLED display raises image quality to a new level. The resolution of the sensor is perfect in almost all hunting situations. It can also be used at night or in unfavorable conditions for observing objects in areas covered with grass, bushes and tree branches, even in rainy, foggy and smoggy conditions. To improve this, the manufacturer has placed a separate menu item in the device. It is a device with 1x magnification by default, but with an optional 4x basic magnification eyepiece, which can be purchased separately, the software also allows 2x or 4x digital magnification. Thanks to the ratio of the sensor - pixel size - focal distance, it is designed to overcome medium or shorter scattering distances with a moderately wide field of view. Mate's extremely strong housing is designed for the toughest conditions of use. Its compact size and weight make it practical for use as a scope adapter. Our daytime scope can be converted into a thermal camera scope in an instant. The really big selling point of the Mate is the row of buttons fixed with a magnet on the top of the device housing, for which the manufacturer also offers a magnetic adapter that can be attached to a weapon, so that the image settings can always be changed from the most comfortable position in the field - wirelessly. Knowing the sensor, display and the image you see, the InfiRay thermal cameras provide a unique experience during use. You can quickly switch between four color modes (Black highlighted, white highlighted, red highlighted and palette) and three scene modes. By adjusting the brightness of the display, we can make the image relaxing in a really wide interval, or extremely strong during the day, and we can adjust the fineness of the details. You can choose between automatic and manual calibration and activate the video output. Its OLED display with a resolution of 1024x768 produces an amazingly clear image both during the day and at night, thanks to the well-grip focus dial, the image is always extremely convincing. The front lens cap with magnetic closure is a practical addition to the range of details. Using the menu item Correction of inactive pixels, the maintenance of the display is also solved. The ballast has a USB-C output, which is primarily used to extend the operating time of the built-in battery (up to 5 + 7.5 hours) by connecting the IBP-4 external battery pack, but it can also be connected with a standard USB and analog video output (PAL system) with the included cable. In addition to the built-in battery, the external cylindrical IBP-4 battery is held by a quick-release ring on the day scope. Exact information in "Accessories". Overall, it can be said that it is one of the most balanced devices on the market in terms of knowledge, performance, parameterizability and durability. Its predecessors, the CL42 and CH50 versions of the Clip series, have already convinced many users of their durability and reliability. Accessories that can be purchased as an option in the future: LRF rangefinder + powerbank 4x magnification monocular Use as a front sight To mount on the scope, a scope adapter is required, the diameter of which must be adjusted to the outer diameter of the daytime scope. If you know the outer diameter of the front lens of your scope, you can purchase the exact adapter separately: * its use as a ballast can be solved with a Smartclip adapter chosen separately for the outer diameter of the scope.
