    Guide TD210 - any users?

    Yes I concur - about 50m max. And the environment needs to be cool. No point trying to use it in the heat of summer.

    Guide TD210 - any users?

    No it won't pick up a Wheatear at 200m.

    Guide TD210 - any users?

    So I got the little Guide TD210 and have also compared it with a friend's £2000+ Pulsar. No surprise that the Pulsar is way better, but the Guide actually seems pretty adequate for my purposes. It tells me when there are birds on bushes as long as the bushes aren't too dense and the birds...

    Guide TD210 - any users?

    I'm not interested in magnification or in identifying stuff with the thermal devce, as I have said. I simply want to use it to search around and locate birds in bushes etc, then try to see them with my binoculars. So I have ordered the Guide, and if it is no good for me I will return it and...

    Guide TD210 - any users?

    A friend who uses a thermal imager for birding in the same way I want to says he only ever uses his at the lowest magnification as when scanning to pick stuff up you want it as wide as possible. I'm trying to make up my mind between the Guide and the Pulsar XM30F and I think I need to see them...

    Guide TD210 - any users?

    Thinking of getting this as my first thermal imaging device. Will use it for scanning tangled ditches, reed beds, bushes and hedges on my local patch then use my binoculars to try to locate any heat sources. Will it be any good? It's far cheaper than eg the Pulsar or Zeiss models but I think...
