The PARD Pantera 256 Q is a state-of-the-art thermal imaging scope designed for various outdoor applications, including hunting, surveillance, and exploration. Its compact and lightweight design, combined with advanced thermal capabilities, makes it an ideal tool for discerning users.
Famolavolana matevina sy maivana

Designed to resemble a daytime scope, the Pantera 256 Q is exceptionally lightweight at 490g (with battery), offering portability and discretion. It fits seamlessly with 30mm mounting rings. The side focus knob provides a clear view and easy access for smooth adjustments.
High Sensitivity NETD ≤25 mK

Capable of detecting minute temperature variations below 0.025 °C, this feature provides superior image details and allows for easier object identification in challenging conditions.
Recoil-Activated Recording

The monocular records a continuous 20-second loop. Upon detecting recoil, the video file is automatically stored on the integrated MultiMediaCard (eMMC), ensuring you capture key moments.
