• Easy one-push operation enables measurement of horizontal distances, height, angle and vertical separation (difference in height between two targets), in addition to the actual distance measurement function.

• The results are displayed on both an internal and an external LCD panel. The external LCD panel shows all results simultaneously.

• Select from two measurement modes (Target Priority Switch System):
First Target Priority mode displays the range to the nearest target among multiple results obtained with a single measurement - useful when measuring the distance to a pin on a green with woods in the background.
Distant Target Priority mode displays the range to the farthest target among multiple results obtained with a single measurement - useful when hunting in heavily wooded areas.

• Measurement range: 10-500m/11-550 yd./33-999 ft.

• Actual Distance measurement display step is 0.5m/yd. (shorter than 100m/yd.)

• High-quality 6x monocular with multilayer coating for bright, clear images

• High-eyepoint design affords eyeglass wearers easy viewing

• Simple one-touch measurement

• Compact, lightweight design enables easy, single-hand operation

• Diopter adjustment function

• Capable of distancing different targets in succession by keeping the button pressed

• Waterproof (up to 1 metre for 10 minutes), but not for underwater usage; the battery chamber is water resistant.

• Wide temperature tolerance: -10ºC to +50ºC

Note: The origin of the technique of this Laser Rangefinder with inclinometer is the Surveying Instruments incorporated measuring capability of both distance and angle which were developed by Nikon Corporation. Among such products, especially, the first highly advanced electronic model, the Total Station DTM-1, is the root (Sold in 1985).
