For over 75 years, YASHICA has been at the forefront of photographic innovation. Now, we’re proud to introduce our second and most advanced night vision device yet—the YASHICA Explorer.

The YASHICA Explorer transforms darkness into a vibrant, full-color landscape. Our advanced technology delivers stunning 4K UHD video and 48MP photos in low light, revealing details invisible to the naked eye. In complete darkness, the powerful 3-level IR illuminator provides clear vision up to 600 meters away.

Designed for versatility, the Explorer can be handheld for spontaneous use or helmet-mounted for hands-free operation. At just 430g, its lightweight yet robust build makes it ideal for any nighttime journey, from dense forests to open plains.

With the YASHICA Explorer, your adventures don’t end at sunset. Uncover the hidden world of the night with unparalleled clarity and convenience.

Full-Color Cave Exploration

Watch as YASHICA Explorer brings a dim cave to life, transforming low-light conditions into vibrant, natural colors with full-color night vision.

Wildlife Observation in Complete Darkness

See how YASHICA Explorer’s IR illuminator uncovers wildlife in a pitch-black cave, revealing every detail without any light source.

The YASHICA Explorer revolutionizes night vision with its innovative OLED screen system, offering unparalleled versatility in nocturnal observation. This unique design combines a traditional goggle view with a convenient flip-up display, adapting seamlessly to your changing needs in the field. 

The googles utilize high-contrast 2 pieces of OLED ultra-high-definition circular displays and a 2.4” flip-up high-quality display, ensuring crisp, clear images even in the darkest conditions.

In the field, adaptability isn’t just an advantage – it’s a necessity. The YASHICA Explorer features a dual-mount system that allows for different usage configurations. This design allows the device to be adapted to various situations and preferences.

  • Handheld: For quick, spontaneous viewing and easy maneuvering.
  • Helmet-mounted: Allows for hands-free operation and is useful in activities requiring both vision and hand use. 

Your mission, your choice.

The YASHICA Explorer weighs only 430 grams, making it 42% lighter than our first model and lighter than many other night vision devices. This reduction in weight enhances comfort during extended use in activities such as wildlife observation, hiking, or surveillance operations.

Despite its lightweight design, the YASHICA Explorer is built with durability in mind. Constructed with high-quality materials, it’s designed to withstand your outdoor adventures.  

It offers a balance of portability and resilience, allowing users to carry advanced night vision capabilities with ease.

The YASHICA Explorer revolutionizes night-time viewing with its full-color night vision technology. Powered by AI-ISP (Artificial Intelligence Image Signal Processor), this advanced system captures and enhances even the faintest light to produce color images that closely resemble daylight visibility.

We’ve significantly enhanced the true color technology from our previous model, offering a much brighter and more realistic color view, even in extremely low-light conditions with the lux rate of 0.0019. 

Unlike traditional green-tinted night vision, the Explorer allows you to see the night world in true colors, enhancing your ability to identify objects and distinguish shapes quickly and accurately.

The YASHICA Explorer enhances its night vision capabilities with a built-in 3-level IR illuminator. This 850NM  infrared light source is invisible to the naked eye but significantly boosts the device’s performance in pitch darkness. 

With an impressive range of up to 600 meters, the IR illuminator allows you to observe distant subjects even in complete darkness. The three-level adjustment works seamlessly with the goggle-view and flip-up display, ensuring consistent performance across all viewing modes.

 Whether you’re navigating in starless nights or observing wildlife in dense forests, the Explorer’s IR illuminator extends your vision far beyond natural light limitations. With the YASHICA Explorer, darkness is no longer a limitation – it’s an invitation to explore.

The YASHICA Explorer goes beyond observation, offering high-resolution imaging capabilities for both video and still photography. 

Equipped with 4K UHD video recording, the Explorer captures moving subjects with exceptional clarity, allowing you to document nocturnal wildlife behavior or create professional-quality night-time footage. 

The device’s 48MP photo capability ensures that still images are rich in detail, preserving fleeting moments with remarkable precision.  

Preserve fleeting moments with unparalleled clarity, whether for professional analysis or personal amazement. The night has stories to tell – make sure you’re equipped to share them.

The YASHICA Explorer further redefines night-time explorations with its remarkable F/1.0 aperture lens, a feature that significantly enhances its night vision capabilities. 

This ultra-wide aperture allows for maximum light intake, crucial in low-light conditions. Compared to many night vision devices on the market, the Explorer’s larger aperture captures more visual information, resulting in richer and clearer images.  

With the F/1.0 aperture, the YASHICA Explorer doesn’t just pierce the darkness – it illuminates a world hidden to the naked eye.

8-Coated Lens

Our lenses come equipped with advanced coatings that minimize reflections and glare, allowing for clearer vision in low-light conditions. Compared to standard options, these coatings also protect against water, dust, scratches, and smudges, ensuring durability and superior performance. The UV and colored coatings enhance contrast, making it easier to spot details, so you see more of what matters, even in challenging environments

1. Anti-reflective coating
2 Anti-glare coating
3 Waterproof coating
4 Dustproof coating
5 Anti-scratch coating
6 Oil-proof coating
7. UV coating
8. Tinted coating

The YASHICA Explorer enhances your night vision experience with its advanced zoom capabilities, combining both optical and digital capabilities.

The device features a fixed 3x optical zoom, providing clear and undistorted magnification similar to binoculars. This optical zoom allows you to get closer to distant subjects while maintaining image quality and detail. For even greater magnification, the Explorer offers an additional 8x digital zoom, enabling you to bring far-off objects even closer.  

Whether you’re tracking elusive wildlife or monitoring distant activities, this powerful zoom combination ensures you never miss a detail – no matter how far away.

When the mission is critical, downtime isn’t an option. The YASHICA Explorer’s removable 3500mAh battery ensures you stay operational, mission after mission. With the ability to hot-swap battery, your night vision capabilities are limited only by your ambition. With the ability to quickly swap batteries, your night vision capabilities know no bounds – because when darkness falls, your adventure is just beginning.

  • Charging to 100% in 4.5 hours
  • Charging to 80% in 3.5 hours
  • Battery lasts 11 hours with the IR off

Like the YASHICA Vision, the YASHICA Explorer also comes with an intuitive interface that makes it easy for anyone to navigate. The menu structure is simple, and the clearly labeled buttons offer complete control at your fingertips. Plus, with the added backlit buttons, you can easily operate the camera even in low-light conditions.
