Thanks to the HD sensor, image clarity remains consistent, even as magnification increases. Zooming can be adjusted in 2x steps or continuously, allowing users to tailor their field of view (FOV) for any situation.

Expansive Field of View

Experience a broad field of view with the Merger XT50 LRF. The wide 14-degree FOV, combined with a 2.5x base magnification, ensures easy scanning and spotting. The large-format sensor maintains an optimal FOV/magnification ratio, even at the highest zoom levels of up to 16x.

Extended Detection Range

Equipped with a high-performance objective lens and a 12 µm / 1280x1024 pixel HD thermal sensor, the Merger XT50 LRF excels at long-range detection. It can spot objects 1.8 metres high from distances up to 2300 metres, even in total darkness.

Classic Binocular Design

Designed to resemble traditional daytime binoculars, the Merger XT50 LRF boasts a compact and ergonomic build. Despite its small size, it offers excellent functionality, with six easily accessible buttons that allow single-touch operation of key features.

Comfortable Two-Eye Viewing Experience

The optical design of the Merger XT50 LRF takes into account the natural human tendency to gather visual information through both eyes. Viewing with both eyes reduces fatigue and enhances the detection of faint or distant objects. Its adjustable interpupillary distance (62-74 mm) caters to individual user preferences, ensuring a comfortable fit.

Precision Laser Rangefinder with 1500 Metre Range

Accurate distance measurement is key for making informed decisions. The built-in laser rangefinder provides precise measurements up to 1,500 metres, with both single measurement and continuous scanning modes. The accuracy of ±1 metre ensures reliable, real-time data for quick and accurate assessments.

Dual Battery System for Extended Usage
