The X-Vision Optics 10X42mm Rangefinding Binoculars boast a true range-finding distance of 2200 yards, with four different ranging modes and its OLED display. The 10X magnification allows for precise readings, combined with an angle measurement range of +/- 90 degrees that is accurate to within 0.5 degrees.

As mentioned, the RB1042 offers multiple modes: Standard, Hunt, Golf and Rain. The standard mode has no icon displayed on the OLED (red colored) display. The standard mode provides distance and angle measurement. The rain mode is ideal for rainy or foggy days where the target distance is greater than 30 yards, with the horizontal distance (HD) provided. The golf mode gives the priority to the near objectif the rangefinder obtains multiple distances, it will display the nearest option. The hunt mode gives preference to the further object, ignoring interfering objects like bushes and branches.

Two operating buttons make the RB1042 easy to use, while the OLED screen has a simple, easy to read display menu for quick and accurate readings. The product includes a protective carrying case, neck strap, lens covers, CR2-3V battery, battery key and microfiber lens cloth. Binocular lenses are multilayered, anti-reflective, and come with an anti-scratch glass coating.
