Zeiss has released the DTI 3/25, its second thermal imaging camera developed especially for hunting. With a focal length of 25 mm, it offers an enlarged field of view of 26 meters at a range of 100 meters and provides a decisive advantage when hunting in wooded areas. “With the addition of the DTI 3/25, we are expanding our product line to include another thermal imaging camera that provides a view in total darkness, especially at close range,” says Tammo Lüken, head of category management hunting at Zeiss .

The optics deliver highly detailed images, allowing hunters to accurately identify their target. The high-resolution HD LCOS display combined with a 0.5 zoom increments delivers detailed images for reliable spotting.

The triangular button layout and the specific arrangement of the buttons on the Zeiss DTI thermal cameras allow the controls to be identified quickly and accurately, even in the dark, or with gloves on in cold conditions. Whether right or left-handed, the DTI 3 family offers simple and intuitive operation in a natural and ergonomic way for a successful hunt.

Behind the Bullet: The .308 Norma Magnum

Norma’s ballistician Nils Kvale saw the wisdom of having the velocity and horsepower of the .300 H&H Magnum, but in a shorter, more affordable receiver, and used the H&H case to develop his .358 Norma Magnum in 1959 as well as the .308 Norma Magnum one year later. The .308 Norma Magnum closely resembles the wildcat .30-338 cartridge, though the shoulder of the former is located a bit more toward the base than that of the .308 Norma Magnum. Intrigued?
