PRIME
™
1500 LASER RANGEFINDER!
Your Bushnell® Prime™ 1500 is an ultra-compact, premium laser rangefinder with the latest Digital Technology, providing
precise range readings from 5-1500 yards/5-1646 meters. Measuring 1.3 x 4.2 x 2.9 inches, the 6-ounce laser rangefiner
delivers high-speed target acquisition, with +/- 1 yard accuracy to the maximum range. The laser rangefinder features
Bushnell's patented ARC™ (Angle Range Compensation with Ballistics Intelligence), a new Ranging Engine for faster, more
consistent response and readings and water-resistant (IPX4) construction along with EXO™ Barrier Coating on the optics.
WARNING: AS WITH ANY LASER DEVICE,
AVOID DIRECT EYE EXPOSURE!
*Note: You will get both longer and shorter maximum distances depending on the reflective properties of the particular target and the environmental conditions at the time the distance of
an object is measured. The color, surface finish, size, and shape of the target all affect reflectivity and range. The brighter the color, the longer the range. White is highly reflective, for example,
and allows longer ranges than the color black, which is the least reflective color. A shiny finish provides more range than a dull one. A small target is more difficult to range than a larger target.
The angle to the target also affects. Shooting to a target at a 90-degree angle (where the target surface is perpendicular to the flight path of the emitted energy pulses) provides a good range.
In contrast, a steep angle, on the other hand, provides limited ranging. Also, lighting conditions (e.g., the amount of sunlight) will affect the ranging capabilities of the unit—the less light (e.g.,
overcast skies), the farther the unit's maximum range. Conversely, very sunny days will decrease the unit's maximum range.
