Great Camera
4.0
In comparing the Seek ShotPro to the Seek RevealPro, the RevealPro has the cleanest image with the least amount of noise. The ShotPro has a bit more noise in the image, but is still acceptable and works very well. Get the RevealPro if you want the least amount of noise in the image.
Get the ShotPro if you want the larger LCD, the easier to use touch screen, the wider field of view, the option to shoot video, and the analysis tools built into the ShotPro. Because I'm using the Thermal Camera for home inspections, the narrow field of view on the RevealPro is frustrating. The wider field of view is much better on the ShotPro.
Whenever an image is taken, the camera shoots an image in both the thermal and visible light at the same time. While I can't find the visible light JPG file anywhere on the camera, I can go into the tools after the photo is taken, select visible light image, and save that as a new image. I wish the camera did that automatically, but as least there's a work around.
The camera is easy to use and the fact that Seek added the analysis and adjustment Tools in saved photos is wonderful. I can shoot the shot in the thermal mode and later make whatever changes or add any extra analysis to the image after the fact. I like to save the image as a new file to keep the original data.
The video recording is wonderful and a real plus. The camera does record the image as 640x480 at 17 FPS (Frames Per Second). Looking closely at the video a single frame in the video may be repeated 2 or 3 times, so the final result is really a 7 to 9 FPS video. I had no problem editing it in Final Cut Pro X.
Overall I'm very happy with the camera, it does what I wanted it to do and offers several nice extras.

- IR array heterogenity (same measuring point can be read differently at oposite sides of array)
- no user interchangable battery
- noisy IR image
- lack of a good PC software
- light led, visual camera as well as display could be better quality (like OLED)
- user support seems to not exist

So cool and so much fun - a million uses.

What an amazing device at an amazing price. Seek is going to put competitors out of business.
It's simple to use and a good interface. I hand it to people, tell them what it does, and they are immediately discovering things. In the first few weeks I've had it I've used it to find heat leaks in buildings, diagnose uneven heating on my stove, monitor the curing of casting materials, evaluate space heaters, and a dozen other things. My Amazon reviews now often include thermal photos, even!
Despite the low resolution of these devices in general, I can see the individual heating element weaving through my car's seats!
It feels like a durable device.
The down side is that the WiFi feature is unusable. I can connect to the access point on the device, but the app doesn't show an image. There is no troubleshooting information available. The instructions are less than IKEA furniture (fortunately, the device is otherwise dead simple to figure out.)
Bottom line is that if you think it will be useful, you should buy it.
