Product Description
A very compact laser rangefinder from Swarovski. The Laser Guide 8 x 30 monocular weighs only 12 oz., yet it will deliver 1 yard accuracy from 10 yards out to a very impressive 1500 yards. This 8x power monocular with Swarobright coatings has a built in rangefinder that can be set for readings in yards or meters. 1500 yd/m range with scan capability. Both the standard and the scan modes are activated by a single push button. The Laser Guide 8 x 30 is fully waterproof and submersible. Push-down eyecup accommodates eyeglass wearers, and the adjustable twist-in eyecup may be removed for easy cleaning. Features an LED display with aiming circle for rapid target acquisition, and includes a built-in tripod adapter. Includes a neoprene carry strap, belt holster, and battery.

 Best of class December 6, 2006
I have tried different rangefinders on my ranch in Montana and these are clearly the top of the line. They are not the lightest I have used, but at 2 lbs they are not bad, even if you plan on hiking around all day with these and a pair of binoculars. Very well built and able to stand up to the drop test.
Ranging out to 1500 yds is a bit on the crazy side, nice to be able to do it and to be able to brag about it, and these do it well, but a bit crazy, as unless you are a marine sniper why would you care if something is at 1441 yds vs. 1500 yds? Most people would say in either case, "It's just a darn long ways away". And it is!
They work the best of any I have tried in bad weather conditions and do work well through the windshield of the truck, etc. Note: No rangefinder works that great in rain or snow as naturally the laser has to be able to reach the target point to be accurate, but these tend to be the best.
Accuracy seems to be spot on. Battery life is good. Optics are very good. Sighting in doesn't seem to be any harder than other brands - none are super easy. Ranging short distances (25 yds, 50 yds and 100 yds) works just fine.
So if you like top of the line products, want to know exactly how far "a long ways away" is and can afford them, you want this rangefinder.

Expensive, but beautifully built, solid, compact and surprisingly small in the hand. Comes with a very good *trouser ( *pants for the benefit of our US friends ) belt holster which locks the rangefinder securely in place when on the move. Excellent optically as one would expect from a name and reputation of Swarovski, the instrument is simple to use.
Downside, in certain lighting conditions it can be difficult to see the superimposed orange range indicator. The only other negative is in the ability of holding the instrument steadily enough when targetting a small-ish distant object. You do need to be very steady and consistent in order to hold the target circle on the object to be measured.
Overall, the Swarovski is a first class top draw laser rangefinder with just a few minor hiccups to keep the score down to 4/5 marks.
