There is provided a method for capturing a sequence of image frames in a thermal camera having a microbolometer detector comprising: capturing a first sequence and a second sequence of image frames with a shutter of the thermal camera being in a closed state and an open state, respectively. While capturing each of the first and the second sequence, an integration time of the microbolometer detector is switched between a plurality of integration times according to one or more repetitions of a temporal pattern of integration times. The method further comprises correcting image frames in the second sequence that are captured when the integration time is switched to a particular position within the temporal pattern of integration times using image frames in the first sequence that are captured when the integration time is switched to the same particular position within the temporal pattern of integration times.
