Key Features
• Linear distance measurement range: 10-500 meters/11-550
yards/33-999 feet.
• Angle measurement range: ±89°
• Distance measurement display step:
[Internal Display]:
(Linear Distance)
0.5 meter/yard, 1 foot
(measurement distance is less than 100 meters/yards
/feet)
1.0 meter/yard, 1 foot
(measurement distance is 100 meters/yards/feet
or further)
(Horizontal Distance/Height)
0.2 meter/yard, 0.5 foot
(measurement distance is less than 100 meters/yards
/feet)
1.0 meter/yard, 1 foot
(measurement distance is 100 meters/yards/feet
or further)
(Angle)
0.1° (-10° — 10°)
1.0° ( ≦ -10°, 10° ≦ )
[External Display]:
(Linear distance) 0.5 meter/yard, 1 foot
(Horizontal Distance/Height) 0.2 meter/yard, 0.5 foot
(Angle) 0.1°
• Easy-to-aim 6x optical observation system
• Quantifies the horizontal distance to the target and its height in
relation to the rangefinder's level by measuring linear distance
and angle.
• Measure the vertical separation (height between two points) -
vertical separation mode and 3-point measurement mode are
available
• The results are displayed on both an internal and an
external LCD panel. The external LCD panel shows all results
simultaneously.
• Target Priority Switch System allows you to easily match the
measuring situation.
• Waterproof design (NOT designed for underwater usage)
• Invisible/Eyesafe EN/IEC Class 1M Laser
• 30-second results display
• Compact, lightweight, ergonomic design
• Automatic shut-off (after approx. 30 sec. unattended)
• Default to “Last Use” settings
• Approx. 20-second continuous measuring function
The Nikon Laser Forestry Pro emits invisible, eyesafe, infrared
energy pulses that reflect off the selected target back to its
optical receiver. Sophisticated precision charge circuitry is used
to instantaneously calculate distances, by measuring the time it
takes for each pulse to travel from the rangefinder to the target
and back. Laser reflectivity and measurement results may vary
according to climatic and environmental conditions, the colour,
surface finish, size, shape and other characteristics of the target.
The following factors ensure better range and accuracy:
• Night time use
• Cloudy weather
• Bright-coloured targets
• Targets with highly reflective surfaces
• Targets with shiny exteriors
• Large-size targets
• Shooting targets facing at 90 degrees
Measurement may result in inaccuracy or failure in the following cases:
• Slender or small target
• Target has diffusing reflective surface
• Target does not reflect the laser beam to the rangefinder (glass, a mirror, etc.)
• Black target
• Target has varing depths
• In snow, rain or fog
• Target measured through glass
• Reflective surface measured from diagonal direction
• Moving target
• Obstacle moving in front of the target
• When targeting the surface of water
