Loving the addition of a laser :-) - better CPU, 4Gb ram, air quality sensor and a volumetric measurement system (how many tiles of x by y do I need for this wall). ETA is Q2 but I wonder if it wont be as close to Cat 60s June 30/July 1 (same as S60).

Regards Timothy

So yeah, about 2 years later the next generation comes. Also some changes I dislike...

From what I read, I high suspect the same Lepton as in the flir one pro.... But no official word on resolution. They said the visible resolution for the MSX image improved. And high temperature range.

The air sensor is really interesting. I wonder if it only detects some solvents and toxic fumes... Or if you can use it as gas spectrometer, which would be really cooldown for chemistry.

Laser for distance measurements on photos sounds interesting.

I won't upgrade, as is 900€ and my CAT S60 still works.

Still better then a C3 by far.
