    Anyone tried the new Kilo2000 range finder from Sig?

    I love my Leica 1600. However, the Kilo2000 has more features, faster ranging and reporting, and a smaller price tag.

    Looks like a lot of rangefinder for the price.

    As per sig:"
    Extreme accuracy is what we were after when we engineered the KILO2000. 
 Updating at 4X per second in HyperScan mode, the KILO2000 rangefinder with patented LightWave™ DSP technology is amazingly fast as well. Couple that with the ability to range reflective targets at 3400 yards, trees at 1500 yards, and deer at 1200 yards for simple, intuitive long distance ranging. The built in inclinometer calculates AMR™ Angle Modified Range for angled shots. Our proprietary Lumatic OLED Display™, automatically adjusts display intensity to match ambient light conditions, bright in bright conditions and dim in twilight to protect your eye. The KILO2000’s simplified user interface displays your system status and while ranging, only provides your necessary data."

    What kind of price tag?

    Did not see a price on Sauer's website and other sites vary including second hand models.

    It's a lot of gear for little money. Even if that works out at €500 it's still not as much as Leica and with Sig you'd expect a certain level of, well, it working.

    Other well known manufacturers have tried to give the same and while they're good they never quite reach the heights they claim.
