With these lightweight 7x42 rangefinder binoculars you'll get the best of two worlds, the superior field of view offered by binoculars coupled with the accurate range information provided by a state-of-the-art rangefinder. Long gone are the days where you had to constantly switch between the two!

The 7x would seem sufficient but I still use the black binoculars with the 8x all the time. I wish there was a premium version available with a 12x zoom and I would never use any other binos anymore.

Rated Good.

Only ones I ever use but the day they release a variable power rangefinding pair will be the last day I use these- that's why I give it a "Good" because I just described what "Excellent" would be.

It's my go-to optic, best non shooting device in the game.
Thanks, ~Jeff

I prefer this 7x magnification over 8x which is too much in my opinion.
The rangefinder is really nice and the ability to set an exact dot on map is very useful.

Especially useful for hunting with bow, crossbow and airrifle as they have limited range and high bullet and arrow drop.

Only - is 0.25 units of extra weight compared to x8 binoculars.
