AMR, Best ranging, yards, Auto brightness, no Bluetooth connection made or desired.
Just went to the fuel dock,to get the stock back from Junior,which I loaned him,as he awaited the replacement for the one he broke. I hit the beach between your house and mine and got 4431yds in this overcast/foggy/rain. Then handed them to Uncle Kyle and he amazed himself,so he's gonna order.
They are fucking incredible...............
Stick....are your Leica's the Geovid Pro model? Thanks. These 8x32 Sigs are very interesting sounding and a solid hunting tool.
No; I wish there was! I'm awaiting a call from Sig CS, who want to make sure I'm not an idiot before swapping them. Definitely want a fresh one, since the size and optics are just right.
These Baby Bino's are rather something. 367yds................
Hung like a champ…impressive what it’ll range through consistently.
Weren’t my target buck, but next to last day he’s mature and stood there too long…
Gotta admit, these little 8 power binos are impressive. Crazy fast ranging out to 3900 yards. Dope is spot on out to the 800 yards. Clarity and FOV is superb. Best $799 I've spent in a long time
After my first was junk right out of the box, CL did nothing except speak nicely and send me to Sig. Sig sent an RMA, two weeks later the new one arrived. They replaced mine with no hesitation (and one shipping error). The new one works. Optics are great for what is essentially a non-premium bino, and the RF now works as others have experienced. No idea on the BT/app connection, I doubt I'll ever use it. One minor detail - the tension screw for the hinge dropped out of the new ones during shipment. I reassembled with a drop of blue Loctite. Might be worth checking.
FYI, for what it's worth. A friend of mine had his older Sig's rangefinding binos stop working during a match. Sig told him they only warranty the electronics for 5 years...from the date of manufacture, not the date of purchase, so his was out of warranty.
He'd only purchased them 2 years prior on closeout at Cabela's.
He gave the Sig's a bath in a bucket for a week or so and then sent them in. Sig replaced them since they clearly had a leaking issue...grin

I had a rangefinder that got "dropped" and was replaced as well. The electronics may or may not have had an issue prior to that. The kid on the phone was relieved when I told them it was damaged, not malfunctioning. He clearly had some arguments with customers in the past.
My wife has a pair of geovids hdr’s and I fooled around and let her use my sigs last week.
Had to order another pair .......... grin

Since my good one arrived I've been using it hard - more than I ever did the old LRF. The combo is the right answer for sure. I've decided that the binocular is good enough, and just try to ignore the tint.
For optical comparison, I'm still using the Pentax 8x42 I bought over 20 years ago. I got an unusually good one - they give up nothing to the Swarovski a friend's gear-whore brother has. But they don't have a laser so they're staying home. The K3000 I fondled wasn't any better optically than this newer, smaller unit.
