The 8x42 Frontier Laser Rangefinder Binoculars from Hawke Sport Optics uses high light transmission optics and a red OLED display to make the view to your target clearer than ever before. Frontier LRF Binoculars are designed to deliver highly accurate distance measurements from 11 to 1968 yards with the press of a button. Range-finding modes include: Distance, Rain, Hunt, Near, Horizontal Distance, and Angle.
The Frontier LRF is ergonomically constructed to fit comfortably in your hand with easy access to both of the control buttons. The display brightness can be manually adjusted between six levels of brightness. The LRF requires a 3V CR2 battery and will automatically turn off after 15 seconds of no operation to save power.
Frontier LRF Range-Finding Modes
Standard Mode
Standard mode measures the straight line distance to the target you are aiming at. It is measured to the nearest tenth of a yard/meter. If you press the POWER button while in Standard mode the rangefinder will continuously scan so you can move around and get constant updates of the distance.
Near Mode
Near mode measures the straight line distance by actively searching for a flag pole, or similar object, in the foreground. When Near mode is triggered the flag icon will have a circle around it.
Hunt Mode
Hunt mode measures the straight line distance to the target, but ignores any interference from long grass or brush that stands between you and the target, ideal for measuring the distance to a deer walking through long grass or woodlands.
Rain Mode
Rain mode measures the straight line distance to the target, but ignores any interference from falling raindrops. The target distance must be more than 33 yards away.
HD Mode
HD mode measures the horizontal distance to the target. The straight line distance is shown on the upper distance readout and the HD component is shown on the lower distance readout. This is especially useful for measuring the bullet-compensated distance to a target. If shooting at high angles in the mountains, firing rifles that have fast-dropping bullet trajectories, or shooting a bow from a tree stand, HD mode gives a more realistic distance for use when calculating holdover aimpoints.
Angle Mode
Angle mode measures the angle of projection. It is measured to the nearest tenth of a degree. The straight line distance is shown on the upper distance readout and the angle measurement is shown on the lower distance readout.
