Working with images

14.1 Saving an image

14.1.1 General

You can save images to a memory card.
The camera saves an image file including all thermal and visual information. This means
that you can open an image file at a later stage and, for example, select another image
mode, apply color alarms, and add measurement tools.
The image jpg file is fully radiometric and saved lossless, which enables full post-proc-
essing in FLIR Tools. There is also a regular jpg part (lossy) for convenient viewing in
non-FLIR Systems software (Explorer).
Note
The camera can be configured to also save the visual image as a separate file. Select
Save options > Photo as separate JPEG = On.

14.1.2 Image capacity

The capacity of a 4 GB memory card is theoretically 3600 images (with no annotations).
