HIKMICRO Condor CQ35L 2.0 – Built for Aussie Conditions, Designed for Precision

The HIKMICRO Condor CQ35L 2.0 is a high-performance thermal monocular designed for serious hunters, professional pest controllers, and rural landowners. It’s compact, powerful, and packed with features that give you the upper hand in low-light and no-light environments.

Whether you're scanning across open paddocks, tracking fast-moving ferals, or securing your property at night, the CQ35L delivers the detail and distance you need to get the job done.

Superior Thermal Sensor for Detailed Imaging

At the core of the Condor is a 640×512 resolution thermal sensor with a pixel pitch of 12 microns. It offers excellent thermal sensitivity with a NETD rating of less than 15mK. That means you’ll pick up fine temperature differences, even in light fog or humid conditions.

This makes it easier to detect animals hidden in bush, thick cover, or further out in the distance. The improved contrast is a game-changer for long nights in the field.

The OLED screen gives you a crisp, full-HD viewing experience with a wide field of view. You won’t miss movement, even at the edges.

Zero-Freezing with Shutterless Imaging

The HIKMICRO CQ35L features a shutterless image system. You won’t experience on-screen freezing during calibration. Scanning remains smooth and continuous.

This is particularly helpful when you're driving, walking, or scanning large paddocks quickly. No more waiting for internal shutters to cycle – the view stays live, no matter what.

Integrated Laser Rangefinder for Distance Accuracy

Built into the CQ35L is a compact laser rangefinder. It delivers accurate readings up to 1,000 metres with ±1m precision. It also displays the horizontal distance to your target, which is ideal for angled shots.

This feature allows you to make informed decisions in real-time without second-guessing. It’s a must-have for ethical, effective hunting or long-range feral control.

Long Detection and Powerful Zoom

The 35mm f/1.0 objective lens offers a maximum detection range of up to 1,800 metres. It’s designed for spotting human- or deer-sized targets at extreme distances.

Base magnification starts at 1.9×, with smooth digital zoom up to 15.2×. Zoom Pro technology helps keep image quality sharp, even at high magnification. It’s perfect for identifying details like species, numbers, and movement.

Compact, Intuitive, and Field-Ready

Weighing just 458 grams with battery, the HIKMICRO CQ35L is lightweight and easy to carry. The rear focus wheel can be used one-handed, with either hand, and the button layout is designed for intuitive control.

Even when wearing gloves, you’ll be able to focus, zoom, and range targets easily. The side-mounted power button prevents accidental shutdowns when handling the unit in darkness or under pressure.

Built Tough for Aussie Conditions

This unit is IP67-rated, meaning it's fully waterproof and dustproof. It’s built to handle the heat, dirt, and rain of Australian environments.

The CQ35L runs on a single 21700 rechargeable battery, providing up to 6.5 hours of continuous use. You can also connect it to an external USB-C power bank for extended operation on long nights.

Connect, Stream, and Record

Use the HIKMICRO Sight app to control your device wirelessly via Wi-Fi. You can livestream footage, adjust settings, or save recordings and still images.

It features both 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi options for fast, stable connections. The unit also has 64GB of onboard storage, so you can record hours of footage without needing extra cards.

Image modes include White Hot, Black Hot, Fusion, Red Hot, and monochrome options, giving you visual flexibility in different environments.
