The FLIR C8 is a pocket-sized thermal camera with a 320×240 infrared detector, four times the thermal resolution of the lower-tier C-series models. Its MSX mode overlays visible-light edges on the thermal image, and the 35° lens covers both wide building surfaces and close electrical panels. It measures from -20°C to 450°C and adds an isotherm alarm plus selectable palettes. It suits electricians, building inspectors and HVAC techs who want a rugged carry-anywhere imager; the trade-off against higher-end FLIR models is a fixed lens and no interchangeable optics.

Owners of the C-series generally rate the higher-resolution models well for fault finding, praising the MSX overlay and pocketable build. Complaints tend to center on the fixed lens and the small display rather than image quality.
The FLIR C8 is a compact, hand-held thermal imaging camera for thermal inspections and reports. It captures 320×240 thermal images and uses MSX image enhancement to embed visible-light details onto them. It measures temperatures from –20°C to 450°C.
A 35° × 27° field of view covers large areas or close-range targets, such as building inspections and electrical switchboards. A 3.5-inch color touch screen handles menu navigation, annotation, image review and sharing.
The camera can also connect to a computer by USB cable. You can view and download images through the file system, and stream visual, MSX or thermal video over USB. The camera has a tripod mount and a built-in LED flashlight. It is rated IP54 (dust- and splash-resistant) and passed a 2 m drop test.
