Nikon Laser 550AS Rangefinder

Laser 550A S - Multifunction design with angle measurement

Golf mode displays "slope adjusted distance (horizontal distance ± height)", enabling you to confidently determine how to play a slope.

By measuring height differences and angle with the Laser 500A S, you can take precise uphill and downhill shots. Linear (actual) distance, horizontal distance, incline/decline angle and height differences can be measured by easy operation. The measurement results enable you to confidently determine how to attack the course.

The results are displayed on both an internal and an external LCD panel. The external panel shows all results simultaneously. You can then select the correct club and determine ball trajectory for

Nikon system design minimises measurement errors

Professional golfers must develop their sense of distance by the metre/yard. The Nikon Laser Rangefinder's system design meets this exacting requirement. Nikon engineers determined the system design through repeated simulations that enable invisible laser rays to be precisely picked up by the sensing unit. High-quality integrated circuits and superior software provide not only superior measurement performance but also quick response. This is what professional golfers deserve, expect… and get.

Multi-layer coating reduces light reflections

Multi-layer coating is applied to the lenses for a much brighter and clearer view. This increases light transmission and reduces flare and ghost due to light reflection. You can thus see just about all target objects on the course with clarity.

The results are displayed on both an internal and an external LCD panel.

Multifunction design with angle measurement

• Easy operation enables measurement of horizontal distances, height, angle and vertical separation (difference in height between two targets), in addition to the actual distance measurement function
• The results are displayed on both an internal and an external LCD panel. The external panel shows all results simultaneously.
• Select from two measurement modes (Target Priority Switch System):
• First Target Priority mode displays the range to the nearest target among multiple results obtained with a single measurement — useful when golfing for measuring the distance to a flagstick on a green with woods in the background.
• Distant Target Priority mode displays the range to the farthest target among multiple results obtained with a single measurement — useful when hunting in heavily wooded areas.
  
• Measurement range: 10-500m/11-550 yd.

First Target Priority algorithm enables accurate approach

Nikon has developed its own First Target Priority algorithm. It is especially useful for approach shots, which require precision. Laser beams are projected and reflected off the objects. The First Target Priority algorithm displays the range to the nearest target among the multiple results obtained. You can then exactly measure the distance to the pin or the flagstick, instead ofbackground objects.

Body shaped for easy operation and comfortable handling

The Nikon Laser Rangefinder's body is built compact, lightweight, and optimised for golfing. Easy-to-handle ergonomic body design provides maximum optical performance without any hitch during play.

Nikon Laser Rangefinders can be used for hunting, Sailing, Forestry surveys, Golfing or cadying or exploring.

Your sense of distance defines your Golf game

Politics may be the art of the possible, but golf is definitely the art of the probable. And you can raise your game with a little science. Forget "guesstimating" distance because you already know how often this has led you astray. Take the virtually foolproof way: the Nikon Laser Rangefinder. Make it a part of your golf arsenal today, and discover new ways for attacking the course tomorrow.
