Details
The E3 is not available anymore. The E3S is the successor of the E3.
The Guide IR E3 is a capable thermal camera. The look and feel of the camera is similar to other cameras in the guide E-series, with a NETD of 30mK and a larger display. The thermal camera has several practical features, such as the capability to record video, wifi, and real-time control via an app, and firmware updates via wifi. The performance and quality of this thermal camera can easily be compared with well-known brands like Flir. Using both the IR resolution of 256x192 combined with the information obtained from its visible light camera, this thermal camera can deliver crisp, clear thermal images and videos. Besides the sensor, this camera offers other important features: for example, auto hot & cold spot tracking, real-time super-resolution (512x384), alarm function, flashlight, and a laser. Furthermore, it has 32GB of built-in memory.
This camera can be considered to be very sturdy as it has an IP54 rating and has been drop-tested up to 2m. It can be mounted on a tripod, because it features a 1/4 inch mount connector on the handle bottom. Using PotPlayer, it is possible to view live IR video over USB-C. It is also possible to view the IR video live over wifi with the Thermography app.
For tutorials on the Thermotools software, the Guide Youtube account, seen here, contains many videos on how to use the software.
