FLIR C8 Compact Thermal Imaging Camera
The FLIR C8 packs professional-grade thermal imaging into a compact, pocket-sized camera. A 320 x 240 (76,800-pixel) true thermal detector delivers the resolution and sensitivity you need to pinpoint moisture intrusion, missing insulation, air leaks, and electrical or mechanical faults fast, then document them on the spot. FLIR's patented MSX detail enhancement overlays visible-light detail onto the thermal image, so problem areas are easy to locate and interpret without guesswork.
Built-in FLIR Ignite cloud connectivity uploads images automatically for secure storage, standardized reporting, and easy sharing with your team or clients. Every C8 includes a 12-month FLIR Ignite Pro subscription, camera onboarding, and IR Fundamentals training from FLIR Academy.
