The NocPix ACE H50R combines a high-resolution 640 × 512 thermal sensor, fast 50mm F0.9 germanium objective lens and integrated 1,200m laser rangefinder in a premium traditional-format thermal riflescope. With ≤15mK thermal sensitivity, a smooth 60Hz refresh rate and 3–24× magnification, it is designed for detailed thermal observation across larger fields and open ground.
Its integrated Class 1 laser rangefinder measures distances up to 1,200 metres with a manufacturer-stated accuracy of ±1 metre. Built-in ballistic calculation uses ranging information alongside configured ballistic data to provide additional aiming assistance. This gives the H50R a major practical advantage over the standard ACE H50 for users who want thermal imaging, distance measurement and ballistic functionality combined within a single optic.
The H50R also incorporates NocPix Reality+ image processing, the Vision+ viewing system, a 2560 × 2560 AMOLED display and ocular zoom. A dual-battery arrangement, 64GB internal storage, recoil-activated recording, Wi-Fi connectivity, 6,000J recoil resistance, IP67 protection and standard 30mm tube mounting complete a feature set designed around serious field use.

30mm Scope Tube & Mounting Requirements
The NocPix ACE H50R uses a conventional 30mm main tube, allowing it to be fitted using suitable riflescope mounting rings.
Required scope ring diameter: 30mm.
Mounts must be selected to match both the scope tube and the rifle's rail or mounting system.
- For suitable Picatinny or Weaver rails, choose compatible 30mm rings.
- For suitable dovetail rails, choose 30mm rings with the correct dovetail fitting.
- Ring height must provide sufficient clearance for the objective housing and other rifle components.
The standard ACE H50R is a 30mm tube-mounted model. It must not be confused with the separate ACE H50R RM version, which uses a different rail-mount arrangement.
The manufacturer's standard accessory list does not include mounting rings. Where the Bamfords free Hawke Match Mounts offer applies, add suitable 30mm two-piece mounts to your basket and the promotional discount will be applied.
Contact Bamfords Online if you need help selecting the correct ring height or rail fitting.
640 × 512 Thermal Sensor & ≤15mK Sensitivity
The ACE H50R features a 640 × 512 VOx thermal imaging sensor with a 12μm pixel pitch.
Its ≤15mK NETD sensitivity enables the detector to distinguish very small temperature differences under specified test conditions.
This is particularly useful when thermal contrast is limited, such as during damp weather, in vegetation or when surrounding surfaces are close to the subject's temperature.
The 60Hz refresh rate provides smooth image updates during observation and movement.
50mm F0.9 Germanium Lens & Detection Range
The 50mm germanium objective uses a fast F0.9 aperture designed to collect thermal energy efficiently.
Combined with the 640 × 512 detector, it provides a balance of image detail, magnification and longer-range observation.
NocPix specifies a maximum detection distance of up to 2,600 metres under its reference test conditions.
Detection is not the same as positive identification. Recognition and identification distances depend on target size, thermal contrast, atmospheric conditions and magnification.
Integrated 1,200m Laser Rangefinder
One of the defining features of the ACE H50R is its lens-integrated laser rangefinder.
Unlike external rangefinding modules, the H50R incorporates the LRF directly into the objective assembly, helping maintain the scope's streamlined appearance.
The Class 1 laser rangefinder has a manufacturer-stated measuring range of up to 1,200 metres with ±1 metre stated accuracy.
Actual ranging performance varies with target reflectivity, weather, angle and surrounding conditions.
The H50R provides distance measurement without requiring a separate handheld laser rangefinder.
Ballistic Calculation & Rangefinding
The ACE H50R incorporates ballistic calculation functionality designed to work with its integrated laser rangefinder.
Users can configure supported ballistic information so the system can calculate an estimated ballistic correction using the measured target distance.
The feature is intended to assist with informed aiming adjustments, but it does not replace correct zeroing, reliable ammunition data or verification under controlled conditions.
The standard ACE H50 does not include the H50R's integrated rangefinding and ballistic functionality.
3–24× Magnification & Vision+ Ocular Zoom
The ACE H50R provides a 3× base magnification with a total stated magnification range extending to 24×.
NocPix Vision+ incorporates a 1–3× adjustable ocular magnifier that changes the apparent size of the internal display image.
This works alongside the digital magnification system to provide a flexible viewing experience.
Higher magnification narrows the effective field of view and does not increase the native resolution of the thermal sensor.
2560 × 2560 AMOLED Display
The ACE H50R features a high-resolution 2560 × 2560 AMOLED display.
The circular viewing format is designed to resemble the viewing experience of a conventional riflescope.
Combined with the Vision+ ocular system, the display allows users to examine thermal detail with adjustable apparent image magnification.
The scope provides 50mm eye relief and an 8mm exit pupil.
Reality+ Image Processing & Thermal Palettes
NocPix Reality+ image processing works with the thermal detector to refine image presentation, contrast and visible scene detail.
The H50R provides selectable thermal colour palettes, allowing the user to choose a presentation appropriate to viewing conditions and personal preference.
Available image settings and enhancement functions can be adjusted through the scope's menu system.
Image performance will vary with temperature contrast, humidity, weather and distance.
Dual Battery System & Runtime
The ACE H50R combines a built-in rechargeable 4,000mAh battery with a removable rechargeable 18650 battery.
NocPix specifies up to approximately seven hours of operating time under its test conditions at around 22°C.
The manufacturer's standard package includes two rechargeable 18650 batteries and a compatible charger, allowing a charged spare battery to be carried.
The removable battery can be replaced while the internal battery provides power, subject to the device's operating state.
Actual battery life varies with temperature, display brightness, Wi-Fi, recording and rangefinder usage.
64GB Storage, Recording & Wi-Fi
The ACE H50R includes 64GB of internal storage for photographs and video recordings.
Recording functions include conventional video capture, audio recording through the built-in microphone and recoil-activated video recording.
Wi-Fi connectivity allows the scope to communicate with supported mobile devices through compatible NocPix software.
The USB Type-C connection supports charging and compatible data-transfer functions.
IP67 Protection & 6,000J Recoil Resistance
The ACE H50R features a rugged aluminium-alloy body with an IP67 ingress-protection rating.
It is specified to withstand recoil energy up to 6,000 joules and has a manufacturer-stated operating temperature range of -20°C to +50°C.
The housing is designed for demanding outdoor use, although correct installation and sensible care remain important.
ACE H50R vs ACE H50
The H50R and H50 use the same fundamental 640 × 512 thermal imaging platform. The main difference is the integrated laser rangefinder and ballistic functionality.
| Specification | ACE H50R | ACE H50 |
|---|---|---|
| Thermal sensor | 640 × 512 | 640 × 512 |
| Pixel pitch | 12μm | 12μm |
| NETD | ≤15mK | ≤15mK |
| Objective lens | 50mm F0.9 | 50mm F0.9 |
| Refresh rate | 60Hz | 60Hz |
| Magnification | 3–24× | 3–24× |
| Detection range | Up to 2,600m | Up to 2,600m |
| Integrated LRF | Yes, 1,200m | No |
| Ballistic calculation | Yes | No |
| Tube diameter | 30mm | 30mm |
Choose the ACE H50R if you want integrated distance measurement and ballistic calculation.
Choose the standard ACE H50 if you prefer the same core thermal imaging performance without those additional features.
ACE H50R vs ACE S60R
The ACE S60R is the higher-resolution model within the original ACE range, while the H50R provides a premium 640 × 512 alternative.
| Specification | ACE H50R | ACE S60R |
|---|---|---|
| Thermal sensor | 640 × 512 | 1280 × 1024 |
| Pixel pitch | 12μm | 12μm |
| Objective lens | 50mm F0.9 | 60mm F1.0 |
| Integrated LRF | Yes | Yes |
| Maximum ranging distance | 1,200m | 1,200m |
| Tube diameter | 30mm | 30mm |
The S60R's 1280 × 1024 sensor offers substantially more native thermal pixels and is suited to customers prioritising the highest level of image detail.
The H50R remains a strong choice for users wanting a premium 640 × 512 scope with built-in ranging and ballistic functionality.
