Display in "digital pointfinder" mode
GB | Digital pointfinder (3x zoom) |
The device has an integral digital pointfinder, which shows the target directly on the display. The displayed crosshairs allow precise measu- rements to be made even though the laser beam is not visible. See drawing {F.2}
The integral coloured digital pointfinder is a great help outdoors and can be used in every function. Longer distances and precise measurements on detailed surfaces can even be accomplished in bright sunlight without any problem.
The 3x zoom allows the image to be magnified to suit the user's requi- rements.
Press the 
key to activate the function. Press the 
key again to operate in a 1x, 2x or up to 3x zoom view.
The brightness of the camera can be adjusted through 5 levels using the
key or the 
key.
)Parallax errors occur when the digital pointfinder is used on close targets, the laser dot may appear displaced in the crosshair. In this case you should rely on the actual laser dot for targeting the object.
