A cool new toy (pun intended). Any idea of the cost? Two lens camera. my assumption is that the color low light numbers are at a 1 second shutter, but still.. And did you see the IR Dori distances?

Also, did you happen to notice the Wall-E models in the Ultra lineup?

I tested this cam and it is amazing how sensitive that thermal sensor is. It can recognize thermal objects and heat sources very far away. I use thermal IVS-rules and it is very accurate. It can not measures temperatures and you can't use thermal alarms. It has fire detection feature but I don't know what is temperature limit. See below some videos.

That is pretty cool. Tried to find pricing on it but failed. What happens if somebody farts in view of that camera?

Looks like this camera is at least $800 currently. I was hoping it was going to be $349.00. Darn.
BF2120 Price

I wonder what the average quarterly price drop will be on a camera like this.
Looks like this camera price hasn't changed from Q1 to Q3. It's still exactly $850. :embarrassed:

Maybe it will go on sale for Black Friday? :rofl:

Yeah, I'm sure the profit margin on thermal cameras is outrageous, especially the ones using (relatively) low res and inexpensive Flir Lepton sensors (like this one).

The only one cheap enough that I could tolerate buying one was the little Flir TCX bullets, now discontinued due to their lack of success, which is no surprise given how badly they crippled the software on it.

Prices don't change much.
I know. That is the problem...I don't understand why a company like Seek Thermal or others don't go after this market. I know they are cheaper than they used to be but it would be nice if this tech was in the same ballpark as Starlight tech.

Gah....I'm actually kinda happy it's so expensive! :lol:
Otherwise, I'd be SERIOUSLY tempted to buy half a dozen of them! That really would be seriously cool to have!!!

oh, we no sell this kind of camera, but can book for you if can wait.
Not quite ready to purchase one this expensive yet. I was curious if you will start to get requests to sell it or not. $850 is getting very reasonable for this kind of camera. It may be a couple more years before it really comes down in price. I think I will get one when it is closer to $500 US.

never sell them, not suits for normal home using no need to use such expensive one.
