HIK Micro Lynx 3.0 35mm Thermal Monocular Scope - LH35

The HIKMICRO Lynx 3.0 LH35 is the flagship model in the Lynx 3.0 thermal monocular range, combining a 384×288 sub-15mK thermal sensor with a powerful 35mm F1.0 lens for outstanding mid- to long-range performance. It delivers enhanced image detail, contrast and identification capability compared with shorter focal length models, while still retaining a compact, pocket-ready chassis. With a fast 2-second start-up, intuitive fingertip controls, HSIS Shutterless technology, AMOLED display, 8× digital zoom and advanced Image Pro 3.0 and Zoom Pro processing, the LH35 is built for demanding hunters, wildlife observers and professional users who need maximum performance in the Lynx 3.0 line-up.

The HIKMICRO Lynx 3.0 LH35 is aimed at users who require superior thermal performance and longer-range detection in a handheld monocular. Its 384×288 sub-15mK sensor provides excellent sensitivity, allowing small temperature differences to be clearly displayed even in challenging environmental conditions. The 35mm F1.0 lens extends the effective detection distance and improves subject definition, making it particularly well suited to scanning wide open ground, hillsides and large fields. Combined with an AMOLED display and rapid start-up, the LH35 delivers a responsive, high-clarity viewing experience.

Key Features
The LH35 sits at the top of the Lynx 3.0 range for performance, with its high-resolution sensor and long 35mm lens working together to maximise detection, recognition and identification at distance. Image Pro 3.0 and Zoom Pro further enhance the viewing experience by optimising contrast and maintaining detail during digital zoom.

384×288 sub-15mK thermal sensor for excellent detail and high sensitivity
35mm F1.0 lens for extended mid- to long-range performance
8× digital zoom supported by Zoom Pro image optimisation
AMOLED display for bright, high-contrast viewing in varied conditions
Ideal for hunting, long-range wildlife observation and security-focused applications

Build Quality & Handling
Despite its more powerful optics, the LH35 remains impressively compact and robust, with an overall length under 170mm and a lightweight chassis near the top of the Lynx 3.0 weight range. The redesigned body offers improved ergonomics, while glove-friendly focus and diopter rings make it practical for cold-weather and night-time use. The F1.0 lens system and sturdy housing are built to handle regular fieldwork and demanding environments.

The LH35 is designed for straightforward operation despite its advanced capabilities. A 2-second quick start means it is ready almost instantly, and HSIS Shutterless technology ensures there are no interruption-prone calibration cycles during viewing. The control layout is intuitive and accessible, even when operating in the dark or while wearing gloves.

Fast start-up for reactive deployment in the field
Logical fingertip controls for quick setting changes
Shutterless viewing provides a smooth, continuous image

The HIKMICRO Lynx 3.0 LH35 is the premium choice within the Lynx 3.0 family, delivering excellent long-range thermal performance in a compact form. Its 384×288 sub-15mK sensor and 35mm F1.0 lens combination provide impressive clarity, contrast and detection capability for serious hunting, wildlife observation and security roles. While it sits above other models in terms of optical power and potential weight, the trade-off is superb performance at distance, making it ideal for users who prioritise range and detail over the very smallest size.

The LH35 offers the strongest mid- to long-range capability in the Lynx 3.0 series thanks to its 35mm F1.0 lens and 384×288 sub-15mK sensor. This combination allows it to detect and identify heat sources at greater distances than the LH15, LH19 or LH25, making it particularly effective in large, open environments.

A sub-15mK NETD rating indicates very high thermal sensitivity, enabling the LH35 to show subtle temperature differences more clearly. This produces a more detailed and contrast-rich image, especially in difficult conditions such as fog, rain or low-temperature environments.

The 35mm F1.0 lens increases detection range and enhances target definition, making it easier to separate subjects from the background at longer distances. While the field of view is narrower than shorter focal length models, the benefit is significantly improved long-range observation.

The LH35 features up to 8× digital zoom, with Zoom Pro algorithms helping to preserve clarity and detail as magnification increases. This allows users to examine distant targets more closely without losing as much image quality.

HSIS Shutterless technology removes the need for traditional shutter-based calibration cycles, which can briefly freeze the image on older thermal devices. On the LH35, this results in a smoother, more continuous viewing experience that is especially beneficial when tracking moving subjects.

The LH35 uses an AMOLED display that delivers high contrast, deep blacks and strong brightness, improving overall visibility and comfort during extended observations at night or in low light.

The LH35 uses a swappable 18650 battery system capable of providing up to 5.5+ hours of continuous operation. Users can carry spare batteries to extend runtime for long sessions without needing mains power.
