I hear a buzz about my favorite rangefinder. The Nikon 440 is to be discontinued. It’s a great buy at 200 bucks, and the size and maximum readable distance is perfect for me. I don’t know what they will have in it’s place yet. It has 8x magnification and weighs only seven ounces. It fits easily into a pocket, and you won’t know you have it until you need it. The glass is typically clear multicoated Nikon quality, and the unit uses a single CR2 battery. It is water resistant and durable. Mine has withstood quite a few drops and is none worse for the wear. If you want one, it sounds like you better act soon.
