Very happy with mine. The only real "annoyance" is FLIR's poor screen brightness (common to their cameras). This is only a factor outside and an umbrella eliminates this problem.

Overall quality, features, performance is outstanding. I have 2 FLIR cameras. The B60 was an upgrade from a BCAM SD.

Under what conditions do you use your B-60 outside during the day??

David,

I had the same problem with my BCAM-SD, so I designed a visor for it. My B360 comes with a visor from Flir.

Thanks OJ, I have given a bunch of these mounts to NACHI members. I don't have any more but I can certainly make more if you want one.
