What changed

The product has a history

Older observations stay in the ledger when the current view changes. That lets a buyer tell the difference between an old complaint, an active issue, and a problem that was corrected.

Owner experience

What repeats after the purchase

Owner discussion repeatedly returns to authorized-channel support, autofocus, firmware, file compatibility, batteries and calibration access rather than specifications alone.

These are self-reported experiences from a changing mix of owners, conditions and software versions. They identify questions to test, not a failure rate.
SignalWhat owners reportOur readEvidence

authorized-channel support, autofocus, firmware, file compatibility, batteries and calibration access

Owners repeatedly discuss focus, smallest resolvable target, emissivity and reflections, battery life, calibration, lens cost, firmware, radiometric-file portability, reporting software and regional service; these are bounded questions to test, not diagnostic proof or reliability rates.

Require the seller to document authorization, calibration, warranty and software support, then test radiometric export before choosing on specification value.
