The Fotric TK8 is part of the TK-series thermal cameras. This series stands out due to its high-quality infrared sensor, creating a notably better thermal and visual image. The camera has a resolution of 384x288 pixels and a thermal sensitivity of 40mK. Moreover, the TK8 features a narrow FOV and an adjustable focus. Making this camera a great choice for PCB analysis and the detection of multiple surfaces. In addition, the camera has a large 3.5" touchscreen, and can connect over wifi and Bluetooth for file sharing and remote control.
The TK series has all the features of a high-end thermal camera, such as multiple image modes, colour palattes, HDMI output and a temperature alarm. Finally, the batteries of Fotric devices are interchangeable, and the TK series has a battery life of 4 hours. An additional battery is included, extending the usage time of the camera in the field.
The TK6-kit and TK8 offer adjustable focus and a smaller FOV. The angle of view of the TK5-kit and TK7 is much larger, so the image looks more "zoomed out".
