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 individual
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
reflective target objects and visibility of 10 km.
The metering range is influenced by the following
factors:
Range
Higher
Lower
Colour of object
white
black
Angle to object
vertical
acute
Object size
large
small
General brightness
low high
(cloudy)
(midday sun)
Atmospheric
clear
hazy
conditions
homogeneous inhomogeneous
Object structure
(building wall) (bush, tree)
With sunshine and good visibility, the ranges and
accuracies are as follows:
Range
10 m / yds up to approx. 1200 m / 1300 yds
Accuracy
±1 m / yd up to 350 m / 380 yds
±2 m / yds up to 700 m / 763 yds
±0.5 % above 700 m / 763 yds
