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.

Armasight Collector 320 1.5-6x19

Riflescope320-class

The Armasight Collector 320 1.5-6x19 is a 320×240, 12 µm thermal riflescope behind a 19 mm lens. On the Johnson yardstick that is an estimated 396 m detection and 99 m recognition range for a standing person; Armasight quotes 708 m detection (human-sized target). Its 396 m estimated detection range is the shortest of the 36 riflescopes here.

how much further the box reaches than a 2-pixel, 0.5 m criterion

One pixel of this unit sees 0.632 mrad (12 µm ÷ 19 mm). Two pixels across a 0.5 m human is 0.5 ÷ (2 × 0.632) × 1000 = 396 m. The box figure is usually computed against a person’s 1.8 m height instead, which is why it comes out higher. Full explanation.

The published field of view (18.18°) differs from the 11.5° the sensor and lens imply by 37%. That usually means the listing quotes a diagonal or a different lens; the published figure is shown, the derived one is used nowhere else.

What the spec sheet says

Read from the published specifications and this catalog’s own numbers — not from owner reports, which we have not collected for this unit.

For it

12 µm pitch — the 19 mm lens sees what a 17 µm core would need 27 mm to match
60 Hz core — 20 % more frames than the 50 Hz norm when an animal runs
Runs on CR123 cells you can swap in the field
16.8 oz — 5th-lightest of the 36 riflescopes here
IP67 sealed — survives immersion, not just rain
Detection claim is only 1.8× our estimate — one of the more conservative box figures here
