FLIR X8580-HS InSb™

High Definition MWIR Science-Grade Camera

The FLIR X8580-HS InSb midwave IR camera is designed for scientists and engineers who need to capture detailed imagery of high-speed events, perform custom radiometric measurements, or detect points of failure in composites, solar cells, and electronics. This thermal imaging camera combines 1280 × 1024 HD resolution with fast frame rates and integration times, allowing researchers to record stop motion on fast-moving subjects or rapid temperature changes—whether in the lab or on the test range. With a four-position motorized filter wheel and support for FLIR motorized focus lenses, the X8580-HS InSb will provide higher quality recordings, save time, and mitigate frustration in dynamic acquisition environments.

Standout Performance, Game-changing Capabilities
Experience unmatched image clarity and speed with 10 GigE, CXP 2.1 high-speed interfaces or Camera Link Full.
Capture more than two hours of detailed thermal events directly to a 4 TB SSD with zero dropped frames.
Proprietary triggering, synchronization, and accurate IRIG time stamping system ensures precise on-time recording.
