Night Pearl Scops 35 MAX II Thermal Imaging Monocular

• 640x512 thermal sensor: The high-resolution VOx ceramic sensor gives the monocular enough detail for confident spotting and better target recognition, especially when animals or heat sources are partly obscured by brush or uneven terrain.
• 35 mm F1 objective: This lens balances image scale with useful scene coverage, helping the Scops 35 MAX II reach long detection distances while still keeping a practical field of view for scanning open ground.
• 2.5x to 10x digital magnification: The magnification range lets the device work both as a handheld scanner and as a tool for checking detail at longer distance, without carrying a second optic.
• 1280x960 LCOS display: The high-resolution display presents the thermal image with a clean, easy-to-read view, which reduces eye strain during longer observation sessions and makes recorded footage easier to review.
• Built-in recording, WiFi and rangefinder: Video capture, image capture, wireless connectivity and an integrated rangefinder make the monocular more useful in the field for documenting observations, sharing the view and judging distance more effectively.

About the Night Pearl Scops Series

Night Pearl Scops is a family of thermal-imaging handheld devices built around the idea of practical field observation rather than weapon mounting. Within the Night Pearl range, the Scops line sits as a dedicated handheld thermal solution for users who want a compact device for scanning, locating heat sources and checking terrain before making further decisions. The series is presented as a thermal-imaging camera, which reflects its role as a versatile observation tool for hunting and general thermal detection work.

Across the series, the focus is on a portable format, straightforward controls and thermal performance suited to users who need to move, scan and reassess quickly. In practical use, that means a monocular that can be carried easily, brought to the eye quickly and used for repeated observation over the course of a hunt or nighttime outing. The Scops concept emphasizes the strengths that matter most in a handheld thermal device: reliable detection, a clear display image and a form factor that remains manageable during extended use. For hunters in particular, the series is aimed at finding and identifying heat signatures efficiently while keeping the equipment simple and field-oriented.

About the Night Pearl Scops 35 MAX II Thermal Imaging Monocular

The Night Pearl Scops 35 MAX II Thermal Imaging Monocular is configured as a handheld thermal unit for users who need a strong balance between detection reach and manageable size. Its 35.00 mm objective with F1 aperture supports a stated 1818.00 m detection range, making it well suited to scanning fields, woodland edges and other open areas where early heat detection matters. At the same time, the 12.50 ° field of view keeps enough scene visible for efficient searching instead of forcing a narrow, tunnel-like view.

The thermal core uses a 640x512 VOx ceramic sensor with 12.00 μm pixel pitch and a 60.00 Hz refresh rate. In practice, this combination helps the image stay fluid while panning and gives the user more usable detail when tracking movement or checking whether a distant heat source deserves a closer look. The 2.50 x to 10.00 x magnification range adds flexibility: lower magnification is more comfortable for scanning, while higher settings help inspect detail without changing position.

The viewing side is built around a 1280x960 LCOS display, supported by photo capture, video recording and video output. WiFi connectivity expands how the device can be used, whether for saving observations or sharing the image with another screen. A built-in rangefinder and compass add practical field information, while the 450.00 g body, central focusing system, waterproof and fogproof construction, and 6.00 h battery life keep the monocular usable in changing weather and during longer sessions outdoors.

About Night Pearl

Night Pearl was established in the Czech Republic in 2009 and has focused on electro-optics for low-light and no-light use. The company has produced thermal imaging devices under its own brand since 2014, building a portfolio that covers thermal imaging, night vision, digital night vision and daytime optics. Its range in this segment includes handheld thermal devices, clip-ons and rifle scopes, alongside night-vision monoculars, binoculars, adapters and sights.

A key step in the brand’s development came in 2016, when Night Pearl opened a research, development and manufacturing facility in Bystřice pod Hostýnem. That background is relevant to products such as the Scops series because it shows a direct commitment to designing and producing observation optics rather than only distributing them. The company later expanded its presence in North America, with Night Pearl USA beginning operations in Sarasota, Florida, in 2023.
