Swarovski has introduced two new thermal cameras that can be used either as handheld devices or as attachments. The new devices are called tM 35.2 and tM 35+.
The tM 35.2 replaces the previous model tM 35 and has been revised in terms of sensor sensitivity and software algorithms. The new sensor delivers a NETD of < 30 mK at a resolution of 320×256 pixels. The resolution of the AMOLED display is 2560×2048 pixels.
Compared to this, the tM 35+ is a completely new development. This sensor delivers a resolution of 640×512 pixels and an extremely large field of view that is 21.6 metres wide at a distance of 100 metres. This makes it suitable for the use in open fields, as well as in narrow passthroughs on the way to a hunting ground.
The two devices can be distinguished by their colors: The tM 35.2 is black and the tM 35+ is green. The recommended retail prices are €2,850 for the tM 35.2 and €3,900 for the tM 35+. Both models will go on sale on the 22nd of August.

The Nighthunter 8×56 porro prism binoculars with their Sports Autofocus System or the Ranger LRF binoculars with integrated rangefinder with a measuring range of up to 1800 metres are especially interesting. And have a good look at the intuitively operated thermal cameras of the Nighthunter series and the hunting riflescopes of the Ranger series. The Sights and the riflescopes in the M5Xi, M7Xi and M8Xi series are ideal for sports shooters.
Last Monday the time had come: Swarovski Optik Germany invited the hunting trade to a roadshow in the 4-star Panorama Hotel Waldenburg, close to Schwäbisch Hall in Germany. The invitation was extended to at least 30 specialist dealers and so naturally we also went along to watch the latest product innovations from the Swarovski and Kahles brands being presented in detail, allowing us to become acquainted with the most important product features.
Of course, we want to share this experience with you. The following products were presented: Swarovski Z8i+ series of rifle scopes, Kahles K18i-2 rifle scope , Kahles TI+ thermal cameras, Swarovski EL Range 32 binoculars and the new universal VPA 2 smartphone adapter including adapter rings.
Let us take a look at the products in detail:
Swarovski Z8i+ riflescopes:
Especially designed for the driven hunt or stalking to ensure the widest possible field of view and excellent viewing comfort. Available in two versions and with different reticles. 0.75-6×20 and 1-8×24. Both models offer optimal viewing comfort thanks to a large eyepiece diameter of more than 51mm. As soon as you take position with your weapon you can immediately locate the target. The 0.75 models offer a field of view of max. 64.4 m/100 meters. The models with the 1-8x magnification offer a field of view of up to 50 metres. Two throw levers are included for quick magnification changes. You can choose to fit either the black or orange coloured lever. The models with the 4A-IF reticle are particularly interesting. In addition to the classic 4A reticle, you can also superimpose an illuminated ring over the centre. This helps with target acquisition and determining the correct lead distance.
KAHLES K18i-2 1-8×24: This rifle scope was developed in collaboration with leading sports shooters from the IPSC and 3-gun disciplines. The special 3GR reticle with several aiming points allows you to stay on the spot at different distances without needing to make any elevation adjustment. In addition, the customer also benefits from a stable 34mm centre tube and the large 50m field of view at 100m distance. It also features a fantastic view through the large eye box. This model also comes with two different throw levers, although in this case they do not differ in colour but in size.
KAHLES TI+ Thermal Cameras: This new series of thermal imaging cameras focuses on the essentials of hunting. All the necessary settings can be made with just two buttons. A Wi-Fi connection, photo or video mode have been deliberately omitted to keep its operation as simple as possible. The new VOx sensor delivers high 640 x 512 pixel resolution with a pixel size of 12 microns and a NETD of < 20 mK. This ensures images are rich in detail and with excellent contrast. The user can choose between Black Hot, White Hot, and Red Only colour modes. The special housing design prevents the device from rolling. An automatic standby switch, triggered by a tilt and motion sensor, protects the battery and prevents the face from being illuminated when the device is removed from the eye. Available with a 35mm lens for a long range of up to 2,479 metres, or a 18mm lens for a wide field of view of 44m/100m.
These new binoculars with rangefinder especially surprised us with its low weight of less than 700 grammes. They are available in 8×32 and 10×32. Besides, the design is also an essential feature of this binoculars. The narrow connecting bridge and the omission of a front connecting bridge, as with the 42 models, make it extremely easy to use, even with large hands or gloves. Another advantage is the ability to freely assign functions to the two operating keys. This makes them much easier to use, especially for left-handed users. Of course, this model also offers the familiar tracking assistant, which helps, for example, when narrowing down the target area. The binoculars can be configured to your personal requirements using the EL RANGE configurator app and offer a measuring range of 9 – 1,500 metres. We would especially recommend these to mountain hunters, or hunters who want to keep their equipment as light as possible and do not need to use the binoculars right up till the last light fades. The optional FRR forehead rest increases image stability, especially after a strenuous climb.
Last but not least, we have something for DIGISCOPING fans: Swarovski has updated its universal adapter and presented the VPA 2. With its generous dimensions and prominent lens units, it is now also suitable for modern smartphones. In addition, its operation has been significantly simplified and the mechanics improved. The adjustment device for selecting the right lens is now mechanically more stable and the adapter ring is much easier to attach. There are three different clamp adapters that can be used for different binoculars by means of inner rings. These must be ordered as an optional extra.
CA-Bs for all CL series binoculars (Companion, Nomad, Mountain, Curio and Pocket)
CA-B for all EL, EL Range, NL Pure and SLC series of binoculars and the BTX eyepiece module
CA-S for ATX/STX, ATC/STC, ATS/STS series spotting scopes and the STR spotting scope.
