Nikon Vision announced a new laser rangefinder, the Laser 1000A S. As well as actual distance, height and horizontal distance, the Laser 1000A S displays slope-adjusted distance (horizontal distance ± height) in the viewfinder. It offers a measurement range of 10–915 m/11–1,000 yd and a wide field of view of 7.5 degree.
Nikon’s Laser 1000A S features an Active Brightness Control Viewfinder for easy, clear viewing with orange LED which is automatically turned on when it is used in darker situations; improved light transmittance for a brighter field of view; larger ocular for easy viewing (18 mm) and 6x monocular with multilayer coating for bright, clear images. It is waterproof up to 1 meter for 10 minutes (but not for underwater usage).
Nikon’s new laser rangefinder offers four display modes, actual distance and height mode, horizontal distance and height mode, golf mode, actual distance mode, all provided in the internal display.
Key Features
- Measurement range: 10–915 m/11–1,000 yd.
