NocPix VISTA H50R Thermal Imaging Monocular with LRF combines premium 640×512 thermal imaging with a fast 50mm F0.9 objective lens and an integrated laser rangefinder. With 4× base magnification and a manufacturer-stated detection range of up to 2,600 metres, the H50R is designed for users who want detailed thermal observation and accurate distance measurement across larger fields and open terrain.
The H50R pairs ≤15mK thermal sensitivity and a smooth 60Hz refresh rate with NocPix's distinctive 2560×2560 circular AMOLED display. Its integrated Class 1 laser rangefinder measures distances up to 1,200 metres, making the H50R the rangefinding counterpart to the VISTA H50 and a strong choice for longer-distance observation.

IS THE NOCPIX VISTA H50R RIGHT FOR ME?
The VISTA H50R is an excellent choice if you want high-resolution thermal imaging, strong long-range performance and integrated distance measurement in one handheld unit.
Its 50mm F0.9 objective gives 4× base magnification and a 15 × 12m field of view at 100m. Compared with the 35mm VISTA models, targets appear larger at distance, making the H50R particularly well suited to larger fields and open ground.
The integrated 1,200m laser rangefinder provides immediate distance information without needing a separate rangefinder.
If you want the same core thermal performance but do not need rangefinding, choose the VISTA H50. For wider scanning, consider the H35R. For the highest-resolution VISTA detector, step up to the S50R.

| Model | Sensor | Lens | Base Mag. | FOV @ 100m | LRF |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| H35 | 640×512 | 35mm F0.9 | 3× | 22 × 18m | No |
| H35R | 640×512 | 35mm F0.9 | 3× | 22 × 18m | Yes – 1,200m |

H35: Wide-view 640×512 model without an integrated rangefinder.
H35R: Wide-view 640×512 / 35mm model with integrated 1,200m rangefinding.
H50: Longer-range 640×512 / 50mm model without an integrated rangefinder.
H50R: Combines the 640×512 / 50mm long-range platform with integrated 1,200m laser rangefinding.
S50R: Flagship model with a 1280×1024 thermal sensor, 50mm F0.9 lens and integrated rangefinding.
VISTA H50R vs H50 – IS THE LRF WORTH IT?
The H50 and H50R share the same core 640×512, 12μm thermal sensor, 50mm F0.9 objective lens, 4× base magnification and 15 × 12m field of view at 100m.
The key difference is the H50R's integrated Class 1 laser rangefinder capable of measuring distances up to 1,200 metres.
Choose the H50 if you want the thermal performance but do not require distance measurement. Choose the H50R if knowing the actual distance to what you are observing is valuable.
VISTA H50R vs H35R – WHICH SHOULD I CHOOSE?
Both use a 640×512 detector and integrated 1,200m laser rangefinder. The main difference is the lens.
H35R: 35mm F0.9 lens, 3× base magnification and a wider 22 × 18m field of view at 100m. Better suited to scanning larger areas and mixed-distance observation.
H50R: 50mm F0.9 lens, 4× base magnification and a narrower 15 × 12m field of view. Better suited to longer-distance observation where greater image scale is more important.
Choose the H35R for wider scanning and the H50R for greater reach.
50mm F0.9 LENS – WHAT DOES IT GIVE ME?
The H50R's 50mm F0.9 objective lens provides greater base magnification than the 35mm VISTA models, helping distant heat sources appear larger in the image.
The trade-off is field of view: the H50R provides 15 × 12m at 100m compared with 22 × 18m from the H35R.
The fast F0.9 aperture is designed to maximise the thermal energy reaching the detector, supporting strong image quality and contrast in demanding conditions.
2560×2560 AMOLED DISPLAY
The VISTA family uses a high-resolution 2560×2560 circular AMOLED display with an 8mm exit pupil, designed to provide a large and immersive viewing experience.
This is one of the features that separates the VISTA range from more compact thermal monoculars and makes it particularly comfortable for extended observation.
