Scan Mode; Metering Range And Accuracy - Leica GEOVID 8 x 42 BRF Notice D'utilisation

Scan mode

The Leica Geovid BRF binoculars can also be used
for continuous metering. If you hold down the
release button (5) after the second press, after
approx. 0.5 s the binoculars switch to this scan
mode and then perform constant metering. This
can be identified by the changing display: A new
measured value is output approx. every 1.5 s.
Scan mode is particularly practical when metering
small targets.
Notes:
• Scan mode consumes more power than individ ual
metering due to the constant metering.
• Scan mode automatically shuts down after 10 s,
to preserve the battery in case the button is
pressed accidentally.

Metering range and accuracy

The Leica Geovid BRF binoculars have a metering
accuracy of up to ±1 meter / yard.
The maximum range is achieved with highly reflec-
tive target objects and visibility of 10 km. The
metering range is influenced by the following
factors:
Range
Colour of object
Angle to object
Object size
General brightness Low
Atmospheric
conditions
Object structure
With sunshine and good visibility, the ranges and
accuracies are as follows:
10 m/yds up to approx. 1200 m/1300 yds
Range
±1 m / yd up to 350 m /380 yds
Accuracy
±2 m /yds up to 700 m /763 yds
±0.5 % above 700 m /763 yds
