LWIR 40-300mm F/1.5 Motorized Continuous Zoom Lens for Uncooled Cameras From Ophir Optics

12 Apr 2016

Ophir will also be exhibiting its LWIR 40-300mm F/1.5 motorized continuous zoom lens for uncooled cameras.

The main applications for this state-of-the-art, compact zoom lens are: border patrol, surveillance, policing, high-end maritime and in mid to large size airports.

The lens can detect a NATO target f at 18 km, recognize it at 9 km and identifies it at 3 km.

The x7.5 zoom ratio provides a wide FOV that enables the operator to find a desired object and zoom into it quickly without losing orientation.

The lens, designed to interface with all known 17 micron pixel FPA providers, is compact and delivers clear high-resolution images, decreasing eye strain and allowing operators to work easily effectively over long shifts. This is achieved through the use of diffractive and aspheric surfaces that provide crisp, high resolution images.
