I am thinking of purchasing one of these units. We have the opportunity to spot deer a long way away where we hunt so I was wondering how far away I could expect to pick up deer with these. I know that they are rated to pick up a man size target to 1080m so how about an elk size target?

They will do it well. I love em. If the internal battery is OK for you then its my favorite Thermal viewer out there. I am using a M64 RECON 640 and the LS64 has a larger lens so it should do better. I can see cows at 1 mile
Deer 800 to 1400 yards depending on how thick the brush and how low the humidity, lower humidity = further.
I want one..... Just so much money. Me and RobertB hunt a lot together. He has the flir M24 recon in 640 as he said. I've been using my dads flir ps24. Honestly if he can see it, I can see it. If I can see it he can see it. He can just see a little better detail. But that little detail sure makes me want a 640!
Now, with that being said. Ask yourself if its worth $4000 more than a ps24 to see it a little clearer. I can see getting the 640 for a clip on or a dedicated scope but really if you just want to spot heat then the ps24 or 32 will hook you up. I have had the ps32 and I used the ps32 right beside the ps24 and I seriously can't tell a difference in the 2 other than the 32 has a 2x digital magnification.
Good luck sir!

Oh and I've spotted deer out to 700yrds on a clear night by range finder with a ps24. It's not supposed to reach past like 300 but that's crap. It'll easily go past that. I have seen cattle past 700 with no problems.
FLIR has a new PS-32 Scout with a 320 core and 35mm lens with a 640 display that is a KILLER improvement over the current PS-32 with 19mm lens and 320 display, I'll get some pics of it in action soon.?

Detection is about the same but POS ID will be less than the LS64.

Any of the flir s will detect about the same things/distance. Resolution will bebthe only difference that is real noticible. All seem to go well past the distance they say they read.
Lol had to sky pup! Btw that may be what I need is that ps32 with the 35mm! Where can I get it and how much?
FLIR just introduced them at the NRA Show this weekend, retail is $3,999, I'll get some pics next week through the new big ocular...?
