The MeoPro Optika LR series, from Meopta, has been released in 10X-42mm HD and 8X-50mm HD models. These laser-rangefinding binoculars measure distances up to 2,600 yards and 2,950 yards, respectively. The Optika LR’s HD fluoride glass and Meopta’s advanced MeoLux lens coating deliver bright images in low light with maximum resolution and contrast. Color fidelity is true throughout the entire field of view, and the MeoDrop hydrophobic coating is designed to ensure a clear view, despite poor weather.

The integrated laser rangefinder features three modes: Autowhich provides continuous ranging of moving targets. Near Rangingwhich ranges the closest object in the aiming circle, and Far Rangingwhich ranges the farthest object in the aiming circle to ensure an accurate reading in situations where there may be objects in the foreground, such as tree limbs or tall grass, that could interfere. The two distance modes offer an advantage to those who frequently hunt in varied terrains. Incline data is also measured for accurate angle compensation in the field.

The illuminated OLED display can be set to yards or meters, and features four levels of brightness control. Display readings automatically shut off after 10 seconds to extend battery life. The Optika LR also features twist-up eyecups, dual diopter adjustments, and a low battery indicator.

Finally, the Optika LR boasts a magnesium-alloy body and rubber armoring. It is fully waterproof, shockproof, and its optical and mechanical performance is backed by Meopta’s Lifetime Transferrable Warranty. For more information, please visit meoptasportsoptics.com/usMSRP: $1,499.99-$1,874.99
