Eliminate the guesswork and base your next shot off knowledge by using the next generation Nikon PROSTAFF 5 Laser Rangefinder. It delivers fast and accurate readings with the consistency only found in a Nikon.

With its aggressive styling and palm sized ergonomics, the PROSTAFF 5 is the ideal balance of size and power. Boasting a 10% reduction in size from its predecessors, the PROSTAFF 5 is the easy to carry compact tool needed for dependable readings.

The 6x21 multicoated optical system boasts a huge ocular lens and optimized viewfinder display to provide the wide field of view needed for immediate subject acquisition and maximum ranging speed. With ranging precision out to 600 yards, the long eye relief of 18.3mm makes it great for use with or without eyeglasses. The incredible .1 yard display makes the PROSTAFF 5 stand out from the crowd.

A defining feature of the PROSTAFF 5 Laser Rangefinder is the ability to enhance the display when needed. An easy-to-read LCD offers maximum contrast against the viewed image, while the switchable LED feature adds additional contrast as needed for ranging in virtually any light conditions. The waterproof/fogproof construction makes it the perfect companion for virtually any hunt.

MSRP for the PROSTAFF 5 is $229.95 for the black and $249.95 for the REALTREE APG.
