The Pulsar Telos LRF XT50 is a handheld thermal monocular built around a 1280x1024 sensor with 12 µm pixels, which gives you a high-resolution image for telling targets apart at distance. Thermal sensitivity is rated below 20 mK NETD through an F50/1.0 objective, and Pulsar lists a detection range of 2,515 yards (2,300 m). A 17.5° field of view lets you take in more ground with each pass, so you sweep less to clear a treeline. The integrated laser rangefinder is accurate to 1,200 m, so you can range what you spot without reaching for a second device.

The Full HD AMOLED display works with electronic image stabilization to hold the picture steady when you zoom in, which keeps long looks at distant subjects comfortable. The focus and zoom rings are placed toward the objective end of the monocular, and their updated, more textured grips help you work them with cold hands or gloves on. A rubber-coated housing keeps your grip secure when conditions turn wet or cold, and the controls grouped on top stay within easy reach. Onboard, 128 GB of internal memory stores your photos and video, and the gold-accented finish marks this as the flagship of the Telos series.
