02Pros and cons

From the published specs, not owner reports.

For it
  • 640×480 sensor, 2.8× the detail of an entry-level 384
  • Smooth 60 Hz picture on a running animal
  • Takes CR123 batteries you can swap in the field
Against it
  • Sensitivity (NETD) not published
  • Only 2 h of battery
  • Heavy at 27 oz, the heaviest of the 112 handhelds here
  • No rangefinder, so you judge distance by eye
  • Does not record video
  • Narrow 7.3° view, so a moving animal is hard to find
