What is the range of this Nikon rangefinder ?
1358712
The manual says 33 feet to 999 feet. I have found that it will refuse to offer a reading at less than 33 feet. I have found that mine reads 906 feet when I am at 900 feet from a concrete block wall. I have not tried it at farther distances.

Nikon specs say up to 999 feet. I have used mine up to 650 feet with great accuracy. Have not had to use it up to 999 feet.

The question has already been answered about it being a GPS not a rangefinder. Don't buy this GPS, it is crap!!! Spend the extra money and get a golfbuddy world

Range is actually the Guide number divided by the F number of the lens. With a typical f3.5 to 5.6 kit lens the range at ISO 100 will be 18.5 Ft @f 3.5 and 11.6 FT. @ f 5.6. If the ISO is increased to ISO-400, the range @ f 3.5 is increased to 37 Ft. and will be 23 Ft. @ f 5.6 Only at ISO-800 can the range extend to 65 Ft. and then only at f3.5.

The range varies for many reasons, but it is a small unit with tiny antenna and I would say 15 feet is about all you will get. If you are using it with a d7100 the frame of the camera is metal and may affect range depending on where the phone or iPad is located. More hobbyist and consumer cameras have built in wi-fi, but most of the Prosumer and pro cameras are not going to have it internally. Please note, if you are using this with an Apple iOS device, put the device in Airplane mode. Then turn on Wi-Fi and connect to the WU-1a's network. Works great!

It's an IR remote, so you need a line of sight to the sensor on the camera. No need to be directly in front of the camera, but the sensor has to see the remote. I haven't checked the actual range.

the range on this unit is limited to approx 12 ft. and the sensor on my k20 is in the front so you have to be facing the camera to use the remote. i suggest you check your camera specs to see where the sensor is located then check several suppliers to find out the range of the more expensive units ... most are universal ti dslr cameras ir sensor richo is the owner of the pentax name and you might want to ask them about sensor and range . i bought mine to photo birds .. wanted to set camera on tripod facing feeder and release from inside .... forget it with this unit

It performs like any other F3.5 lens. Remember the range is 3.5 to 6.5 depending on the range of zoom used. I have been successful using it at football games by removing all filters ( I use a polorizer and UV ) and by raising the ISO to about 2500 (my D300 will go to 6400 but the grain becomes an issue).Hope this helps.

I'm not sure what the specifications say but it is about 60 feet from where I mounted mine to the street and as it was adjusted out of the box, it was seeing cars in the street, so I adjusted the sensitivity and aimed it a little more downward so that it would only detect the closer motion near the door. Works great so far!

It is an accurate rangefinder. Compensates for angle, where necessary. "Best" is relative.

It is line of sight (like a tv remote). Similar range (farthest I've used it is 20 ft - could go much farther). The biggest set back is the camera's internal sleep mode. Not sure how to set that, but I found if I'm setting up a difficult shot the camera goes to sleep before I get the chance to trigger the shutter.

The range finder is simple horizontal lines below center crosshair, NOT a digital laser with readout. You must have a known subject at a known distance for a base point to calculate any other further subjects at further distances. For what it matters, my binocular had a broken none functioning compass when I received it!

There is focus adjustment on the back end for adjusting ranges ... set it a 50 yards and mid-magnification and adjust if I need to for really close and over 100

With my Pentax K-x it well respond from about 50 feet away with no problems. Have a backup battery if you are going to be using it on a long hike.

I've haven't tested the range exclusively, but on a recent shoot I was about 100ft away and it worked just fine.

You can see 20-30 ft. with pretty good accuracy. Remember the further you are away from the target the less accurate your readings. If you leave the camera on MSX it will enhance the image. Darryl Mendivil

I don't know the exact range but it's very good. I have three of these sensors and one from Lowes. I wish I would have bought four. Well worth the extra money.

Not the same range. A smaller sensor gives you more telephoto and less wide angle. I am sure there is a conversion somewhere.
