Detailed 640×480 Thermal Imaging

At the heart of the Pulsar Orni XG35 is a high-resolution 640×480 thermal sensor with a 12µm pixel pitch. Its detailed, high-contrast image helps users locate wildlife and distinguish important features against complex backgrounds.

Advanced image processing improves clarity when temperature differences between the subject and its surroundings are small. This supports dependable observation in darkness, fog, rain and other conditions where conventional optical equipment may be limited.

Fast 35mm f/1.0 Objective Lens

The Orni XG35 features a fast 35mm f/1.0 germanium objective lens designed to collect thermal energy efficiently. This supports a detailed image and reliable performance across changing environmental conditions.

The 35mm focal length provides a useful combination of wide-area scanning and longer-distance observation, making the monocular suitable for woodland, farmland and open landscapes.

Wide Field of View

A generous 12.5° × 9.4° field of view allows large areas to be searched quickly and comfortably. This wider perspective helps users locate animals faster, follow moving subjects and retain awareness of the surrounding environment.

It is particularly valuable when scanning treelines, woodland clearings, fields and other areas where wildlife may move unpredictably.

2.5–20x Magnification

The Orni XG35 offers 2.5x base magnification, extending digitally up to 20x. The lower magnification is ideal for finding heat signatures across a wide area, while higher settings allow detected subjects to be examined more closely.

This flexible magnification range helps users move easily between broad scanning and more detailed observation.

Digital Image Stabilisation

Built-in digital image stabilisation helps reduce the visible effects of hand movement. This creates a steadier thermal image, particularly when using higher magnification or observing a distant subject without a tripod.

Improved stability makes small details easier to examine and provides a more comfortable viewing experience during prolonged handheld use.

Detection Range up to 1800 Metres

The powerful thermal sensor and fast objective lens enable the Orni XG35 to detect a standard heat-emitting subject at distances of up to 1800 metres.

Actual recognition and identification distances will vary depending on the subject’s size, weather, terrain and level of thermal contrast, but the extended detection range provides excellent awareness across large outdoor spaces.

Integrated 1500m Laser Rangefinder

A built-in laser rangefinder measures distances of up to 1500 metres, removing the need to carry a separate ranging device.

Both single-measurement and continuous scanning modes are available. Continuous measurement is particularly useful when tracking moving animals or assessing changing distances across the landscape.

Dual-Battery System

The Orni XG35 combines an internal rechargeable battery with a removable external battery to provide up to 12 hours of operation, depending on settings and environmental conditions.

The replaceable external battery can be hot-swapped without switching off the monocular, helping observation continue with minimal interruption. Clear on-screen indicators display the remaining charge for both power sources, while USB-C provides convenient charging in the field.

Built for One-Handed Operation

The Orni has been designed for comfortable use in either hand. Its intuitive control layout allows the main functions to be operated one-handed, leaving the other hand free to carry additional equipment or maintain stability.

An adjustable hand strap and belt clip can be fitted to either side of the monocular, allowing the setup to be personalised for left- or right-handed use.

Built-In Photo and Video Recording

The integrated recorder makes it easy to document wildlife sightings, surveys and other thermal observations. Photographs and video footage can be captured directly through the monocular and stored on its generous 64GB internal memory.

The large storage capacity provides ample room for extended recording sessions without requiring a separate memory card.

Nine Thermal Colour Palettes

Nine selectable colour palettes allow the thermal image to be adapted to different environments, subjects and viewing preferences.

Some palettes are ideal for quickly detecting heat sources, while others can help reveal subtle temperature differences or provide a more comfortable image during extended observation.

Three Sensitivity Amplification Levels

Three sensitivity amplification levels work with the Orni’s image-processing system to optimise thermal detail in changing weather and temperature conditions.

These settings can improve subject definition, enhance background detail and help maintain image clarity when there is limited thermal contrast.

Picture-in-Picture Mode

Picture-in-picture mode displays an enlarged section of the image while preserving the full field of view around it. This allows a subject to be examined more closely without losing awareness of its position or surrounding activity.

It is particularly useful when following moving wildlife or working at higher digital magnifications.

Automatic Brightness and Haptic Feedback

Automatic brightness control adjusts the display to provide comfortable viewing as external conditions change. This helps reduce eye fatigue during long sessions or when moving between brighter and darker environments.

Haptic feedback provides physical confirmation when controls are operated, making the monocular easier to use in darkness, poor weather or while wearing gloves.

IP67 All-Weather Protection

The Orni XG35 features a durable magnesium-alloy housing with an IP67 protection rating. It is completely protected against dust and can withstand immersion in water to a depth of one metre for up to 30 minutes.

Its sealed construction provides dependable protection against rain, mud and demanding field conditions, making it suitable for year-round outdoor use.

Ideal for Wildlife and Field Observation

The Pulsar Orni XG35 is particularly well suited to:

• Nocturnal wildlife observation

• Locating animals and roosting birds

• Conservation and ecological surveys

• Monitoring fields, woodland and treelines

• Land and habitat management

• Extended nighttime fieldwork

• Outdoor exploration in poor visibility

Thermal imaging monoculars detect heat-emitting terrestrial subjects and are not intended for conventional observation of stars, planets or other celestial objects.
