Calculated from the sensor's pixel pitch and the lens focal length, for clear air.

Nocpix quotes 1,820 m, 2.5× our figure, because makers usually measure against a person’s full height rather than their width. Why the numbers differ

02Pros and cons

From the published specs, not owner reports.

For it

Smooth 60 Hz picture on a running animal
Built-in laser rangefinder that feeds the ballistic calculator
Swappable battery pack, so a spare doubles the run time
10 h of battery, 33rd-longest of 344 here
Waterproof (IP67), survives a dunking
Records video and connects to a phone app
Warranty: 5 years

Against it

Sensitivity (NETD) not published
Short 35 mm lens: a wide view, but less reach than a 50 mm scope
Entry-level 384×288 sensor, with less detail than a 640
Zoom past 3× is digital and gets blurry
