The MATE Ultra S60R runs a 1280×1024 core at 12 µm behind a 60 mm lens; the Krypton 2 FXG50 runs 640×480 at 12 µm behind 50 mm. The MATE Ultra S60R has 4.3× the pixels. On the Johnson yardstick they detect a person at 1,250 m and 1,042 m and recognize one at 313 m and 260 m; the boxes say 3,100 m and 2,300 m. The MATE Ultra S60R is lighter by 0.7 oz. Approximate prices are ~$6,099 and ~$5,000.

Estimated from pixel pitch and lens focal length using the Johnson criteria (2, 8 and 13 pixels across a 0.5 m human critical dimension), clear air, 50 % probability. A model of the optics, not a measurement — real range depends on temperature contrast, humidity and the animal.
