FLIR C8 Compact Thermal Camera – High-resolution thermal imaging with FLIR Ignite™ cloud connectivity for restoration, building diagnostics, electrical inspections & preventative maintenance
The FLIR C8 Compact Thermal Camera is a next-generation professional thermal imaging solution engineered for technicians, restoration specialists, electricians, building inspectors, HVAC professionals, plumbers, and maintenance teams who require higher image clarity and faster diagnostics in the field.
Featuring a powerful 320 × 240 thermal sensor (76,800 pixels), advanced MSX® image enhancement, and integrated FLIR Ignite™ cloud connectivity, the FLIR C8 delivers significantly more thermal detail than entry-level compact cameras — helping professionals detect hidden issues with greater accuracy and confidence.
Designed for demanding Australian work environments, the C8 combines rugged durability, compact portability, and professional-grade thermal performance in a pocket-sized device that’s always ready for inspection work.
Professional Thermal Imaging in Your Pocket
The FLIR C8 provides true professional-grade thermal diagnostics in a compact handheld format. Its enhanced 320 × 240 infrared resolution captures detailed thermal images, making it easier to identify subtle temperature differences that may indicate moisture intrusion, electrical faults, insulation gaps, plumbing leaks, overheating equipment, or mechanical issues.
The integrated 5 MP visual camera combined with FLIR’s patented MSX® (Multi-Spectral Dynamic Imaging) overlays visible image details directly onto thermal images, producing sharper and easier-to-understand inspection results.
This allows restoration professionals, inspectors, and technicians to quickly identify problem areas and communicate findings more clearly to clients, builders, or insurance assessors.
