The Guide TU635 3.0 is a 640 x 512 thermal scope from the Guide TU 3.0 series. It pairs a 12 µm sensor at 18 mK with a 35mm F1.0 lens for detection out to 1800 m, and runs on a built-in 18500 cell plus a replaceable 18650 for up to 12 hours. If you want the newer APEXVISION version, compare it with the Guide TU635S 3.0.
Guide TU635 3.0 Features
640 x 512 sensor at 18 mK
The 12 µm VOx detector picks up small temperature differences, so animals stand out clearly against grass, scrub and timber, even on humid or misty nights.
35mm lens with 3x to 24x zoom
The 35mm F1.0 lens gives an 11.8° x 7.1° field of view, about 21 m wide at 100 m, with 3x base magnification and digital zoom up to 24x. Detection range is up to 1800 m.
Shutterless image
The 3.0 shutterless design keeps the image running without the click and freeze of a shutter calibration while you are tracking an animal.
Central focus wheel and zoom lever
Focus and zoom sit where your hand falls, so you can adjust them without taking your eye off the target.
Full HD display and 10 reticles
A 0.49 inch 1920 x 1080 AMOLED display with 48 mm eye relief, 10 reticle styles in 5 colours and picture-in-picture mode.
Built for recoil and weather
Recoil tested to .300 Win Mag, shock resistance of 6000 J / 1200 G and IP68 protection. It fits standard 30 mm rings.
