About
Experienced hunters can always rely on their senses. Nevertheless, with the right equipment, they can go further than this and transform intuitions into certainties.
The Rangefinder System is a laser rangefinder with an integrated real-time ballistics computer. The consideration of all relevant factors and customisation with the aid of the ZEISS Hunting App ensures precisely placed shots at any distance. The RF family offers a choice of four models: the RF 8 × 42 and 10 × 42 for daylight hunting and the RF 8 × 54 and 10 × 54 for hunting into the twilight hours.
A clear view, whatever the weather
There are always exciting things to be seen in the world of nature – even in wet weather. This is why ZEISS developed LotuTec®.
