Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Nocpix MATE 2 H50R a monocular or an attachment for an optical sight?

The device supports both usage modes. Its primary purpose is to be mounted in front of a daytime optical sight using a suitable adapter, but you can also select Monocular mode from the menu and use the device as a handheld thermal monocular.

Is the optical sight adapter included in the package?

No. The adapter must be purchased separately, as its diameter depends on the external diameter of the optics lens in use. The MATE 2 H50R connection thread is M52 × 0.75.

Does the 2600 m detection range mean you can reliably identify objects at that distance?

No. Detection range means that under suitable conditions, you may notice the presence of a human-sized heat source at that distance. The recognition and precise identification range is much shorter and depends on weather, object size, temperature contrast, and user experience.

What is the range of the laser rangefinder?

The integrated class 1 laser rangefinder has a measuring range of up to 1200 m and the manufacturer specifies a measurement accuracy of ±1 m. Actual results depend on the target size, reflectivity, and weather conditions.

What is Magic Zoom?

The Magic Zoom accessory is attached to the magnification ring of the daytime optics. It transmits magnification changes to the device so that user interface elements remain visible and thermal image processing can be adjusted according to the optical magnification. Magic Zoom itself does not provide optical magnification.

How does the H50R differ from the MATE Ultra model?

The MATE 2 H50R uses a 640 × 512 sensor and a 50 mm F1.0 lens. The MATE Ultra is a separate higher-end model with a 1280 × 1024 sensor and a 60 mm lens. Therefore, Ultra’s technical specifications do not apply to the H50R.

How long does the device operate on a single battery?

The manufacturer-specified maximum operating time is about four hours at 22 °C. Wi-Fi, rangefinder, video recording, and use in cold conditions may reduce operating time. The package includes three replaceable 18650 batteries.

Can the thermal camera see through branches, fog, or rain?

The thermal camera cannot see through tree trunks, dense vegetation, or other solid obstacles. It may help notice a heat source between plants and works better than optics using visible light in darkness or moderately reduced visibility. However, thick fog, heavy rain, and high humidity reduce thermal contrast and detection range.

Can the device be used for hunting?

When mounting the device on a firearm and hunting, all applicable firearms and hunting regulations must be followed. Permitted usage may depend on location, game species, and specific hunting method, so requirements must be checked before use.

When is the Nocpix MATE 2 H50R the right choice?

The H50R is suitable for users who want to upgrade their existing daytime optical sight into a high-quality thermal observation system while retaining their familiar sight, eye position, and handling. The 640 × 512 sensor, 50 mm lens, and 2600 m detection range provide an advantage especially in open terrain and at longer observation distances.

The integrated 1200 m rangefinder makes the H50R suitable for situations where distance estimation by eye is difficult. The MATE 2 Lite is a more affordable option if a 384 × 288 sensor is sufficient and a rangefinder is not needed. The MATE Ultra is suitable for users who require the maximum detail of a 1280 × 1024 sensor and are ready for a larger investment.

If the main activity is long-term landscape scanning, a dedicated handheld thermal monocular or thermal binocular is more ergonomic. The MATE 2 H50R’s monocular mode is still useful for shorter observations and checking the situation before mounting the device in front of optics.

Expert advice

Before purchasing an adapter, measure the external diameter of the optical sight lens precisely. A high-quality adapter of the correct size is necessary for both stable attachment and repeatable point of impact. After initial installation and after every significant adjustment, check the point of impact at a proper shooting range.

It is not safe to scan the surroundings for long periods with optics mounted on a firearm. For extensive observation, use the device in Monocular mode or a separate thermal monocular, and always point the firearm in a safe direction. In cold weather, keep spare batteries protected and, if possible, in a warm inside pocket. Keep the germanium lens clean, remove loose dust before wiping with a cloth, and avoid touching the lens with your fingers.

High-quality thermal image, precise distance measurement, and flexible use

The Nocpix MATE 2 H50R combines a 640 × 512 thermal detector, 50 mm F1.0 lens, 1200 m laser rangefinder, and ballistic calculator in a compact 467-gram body. With two usage modes, replaceable batteries, 64 GB memory, and robust weather resistance, it is a versatile choice for demanding thermal observation.

Top-class image algorithms – Equipped with two algorithms – an advanced image engine and intelligent R+ technology that adapts to sight magnification – always keeps the image sharp and detailed, even in fog, rain, or low light. Clear image in every situation.

Wide field of view – Compared to narrower fields of view, MATE ULTRA allows you to capture more surroundings without moving. Whether monitoring open areas or detecting movement in dense brush – you are always aware and in control.

60Hz frame rate – The 60 Hz refresh rate, shutterless imaging, and powerful 4 TOPS processor ensure smooth and uninterrupted images with MATE ULTRA – without shutter interruptions and motion blur. Fast-moving objects always remain clear, providing accurate situational awareness at critical moments.

Restore what the human eye sees – The Nocpix MATE uses a 35 mm eyepiece with distortion below 0.5%, preserving image accuracy even up to 16× magnification. This ensures a stable point of impact and consistent visual alignment – every shot hits exactly where aimed.

Shutterless imaging – Shutterless technology means no manual calibration is needed, always providing a smooth and flowing image. Even fast-moving objects remain sharp and every detail is immediately visible.

Magic Zoom – With the Magic Zoom function, the thermal image and user interface automatically adapt in real-time when zooming in or out. Without Magic Zoom, the image may become blurry or misaligned, but MATE ULTRA keeps everything sharp and aligned at every magnification. Artificial intelligence provides a fast, smooth, and target-locked view – natural, effortless, and smart.

1 MOA professional accuracy

Excellent repeatable disassembly resistance – NOCPIX MATE is designed for quick switching between different firearms. No tedious zeroing or ammunition waste required. Attach, lock, and the point of impact remains the same – even after repeated mounting and removal. This is factory-calibrated accuracy you can rely on straight out of the box.

Built-in 1200 m LRF & next-generation ballistic solution – NOCPIX MATE features a built-in 1200-meter laser rangefinder. Nocpix has developed a next-generation ballistic calculation that allows the final image to be CORRECTED DIRECTLY – the aiming point matches the actual target according to the ballistic calculation. This gives hunters confidence and precision with every shot.

Stronger, lighter two-piece magnesium alloy body – The body is made of a two-piece magnesium alloy, which is lighter, stronger, and more durable than traditional materials. This design reduces vibration, maximizes stability, and ensures accuracy year after year. Recoil resistance up to 7000 joules – MATE withstands even the harshest conditions and keeps shots on target.
