FAQ

“A rangefinder is a device that help calculate the distance from itself to a specified target. It may also be referred to as distance meters or laser locators. There are many familiar terms used when operating a rangefinder.
Range: The distance is often referred to as the range, and can also be described more elaborately as the horizontal distance, vertical distance or slope distance
Inclination: may be referred to as pitch
Bearing: commonly referred to as the angle or azimuth and it can be compared to Magnetic North”

There are numerous types of rangefinders made for a variety of purposes. Common uses include measuring distance in hunting, golf, construction, speeding automobiles, and photography.

Most rangefinders come in one of the two styles horizontal or vertical. Horizontal rangefinders are wide and flat to enable the user to gain a two-handed grip if necessary when ranging targets, which makes it a good choice for high magnification and longer distances rangefinders. Vertical rangefinders are less bulky compared to horizontal units, which is perfect to be carried along in a pocket or on a belt. But vertical design is hard to hold steady and the image can appear to shake and as a result they are generally of a lower magnification.

Currently most laser rangefinders with an LCD screen use a black display and most units that use an LED screen features a red screen. LED displays are considered to have a clearer image compared to LCD screens, but rangefinders using LED displays are often more expensive. A black display is generally thought to be easier to see under bright conditions, while a red display is often thought to be better in low light conditions.

Rangefinders usually come in magnification from 4x to 8x. Keep in mind that the longer the distance or the smaller the target the more magnification is required for accurate ranging. 8X to the target is much easier to lock onto than 6X and you will always get crystal clear view with advanced magnification. But the higher the magnification the harder it will be to hold the image steady. Then a tripod is necessary to help.

Most maximum ranges are calculated on highly reflective targets under ideal conditions. So if a rangefinder is listed for 800 yards doesn’t mean it will range a deer or flag stick at 800 yards. But here is the quick and rough rule for your reference: a rangefinder will read a deer at about 1/2 of its maximum range, and a flag stick at about 1/3 of its maximum. For example, if a rangefinder is listed with 1000 yards maximum range capability, it will probably range a building out to 1000 yards on good sunny days, a deer out to about 500 yards and a flag stick out to about 333 yards.

Certainly yes! But the product most closely designed for your needs would be more user-friendly and not require multiple readings to be taken or switching modes to give the correct distance.

The first number is always going to be the magnification. This will tell you how close the image will appear when viewing thru the binocular (e.g. 8 times closer). The second number is the diameter of the objective lens in millimeters (mm). 8×24 means 8X magnification x 24mm objective lens.

This rangefinder can measure all the angles between -90° and +90°with +/- 0.35° of accuracy.

Hold Mode button for 2 seconds for angle recalibration. When angle shows CAL, put the device in a horizontal position, then have a long press on Mode button for 2 seconds to exit. Once angle recalibration completed, the INC will show as 0°when measuring horizontal distance.

This machine contains two unit of meter and yard, the default unit is meter, to change the unit of measurement, while press power key ( ©) and M1 together two keys 0,5 seconds, you can switch and save as yard, want to switch back, action repeat.

FA Mode to display the furthest target distance(similar to Nikon 8397 ACULON Target Priority Feature), great for hunting; CL Mode to display the closest target distance, a nice feature for golf.
