Nikon RifleHunter 1000 Rangefinder
The performance-packed new RifleHunter 1000 features a 1000-yard range and extremely accurate .1 yard display readings on game, even if partially screenedby grass or brush. The newly developed Active Brightness Control Viewfinder is designed to offer the advantages of both traditional LCD (liquid crystal display) and an LED (light-emitting diode) display in order to provide better visibility and contrast in varying light conditions. The core of the technology is the latest LCD with automatic brightness control to the LED illumination. Utilizing this new technology, Nikon has optimized the viewfinder display to detect the brightness of the ground area mainly within the field of view (being influenced to a lesser degree by the brightness of the sky). By detecting the brightness within this viewing field, the rangefinder presents the newly designed LCD and will apply automatically controlled LED illumination to the LC (liquid crystal) characters by detecting the brightness within this viewing field as necessary for increased visibility. Part #8377 (RifleHunter 1000)
Active Brightness Control Viewfinder--In brighter conditions
The rangefinder will display the newly designed LCD, which provides suitable contrast and readability against a variety of backgrounds, together with enhanced light transmission.
Active Brightness Control Viewfinder--In darker conditions
In darker conditions, the rangefinder will automatically turn on the orange LED illumination to the liquid crystal characters for optimum visibility—even adjusting its brightness as needed for appropriate contrast against the background.
Nikon’s ID technology
Nikon’s advanced ID Technology compensates for various incline or decline shooting angles—up to an incredible +/- 89 degrees (nearly vertical up or down).
Displays in .1 yard/meter increments
In ID technology mode, distance measurements are calculated and displayed in increments of .1 yard/meter out to 999.9 yards.
Tru-Target ranging system
Flexible ranging mode capabilities for various hunting conditions and terrain.
Easy-to-view uncluttered LCD display
For fast, easy ranging, even in bright sunlight.
Bright, multicoated 6x optics
Nikon’s legendary optics and proprietary anti-reflective coatings offer high-resolution images in most lighting conditions.
Single button operation
For fast, easy measurements. Automatically powers down after 8 seconds to reduce battery use.
Waterproof/fogproof (except battery chamber)

*The results from the product may not be achieved depending on the target object's shape, surface texture and nature, and/or weather conditions.
***In Incline/Decline Mode, first number is increment displayed out to 99.8 yards, second number is increment displayed to 100 yards. The origin of the technology behind this Laser Rangefinder with inclinometer is the Total Station DTM-1 (initially sold in 1985), the first highly advanced electronic model among Surveying instruments incorporating both distance and angle measurement capability developed by Nikon Corporation.
****First number is <999.9yd, second number is >1,000yd.
