The TIFR near-infrared camera (TIRCAM) is based on the SBRC InSb focal plane array (58×62 pixels) sensitive between 1-5 μm. TIRCAM had its first engineering run at Gurusikhar 1.2 meter PRL telescope at Mount Abu during March-April 2001. The first light observations with TIRCAM were quite successful. Several infrared standard stars and the Trapezium Cluster in Orion region were observed in the J, H and K bands. In a narrow band at 3.9 μm (nbL), some bright stars could be detected from the Gurusikhar site. The performance of TIRCAM is discussed in the light of preliminary observations in nbL band.
