Pros: Good ranging, lighted display, very small and light
Cons: Neckstrap

I finally got to play with this unit at the 2000 SHOT show in Las Vegas 1/17/00. Man is this unit light and small. The optics are real crisp and clear and the red LCD display of range and the target indicator was very easy to read. The LED display is bright enough to see the display even in low light conditions, many of the other rangefinders don't have this capability.

The only problem I foresee may be the neckstrap having only 1 mounting location in the middle of the unit on the backside. If you use a "Bino-Buddy" or other camera neck strap setup that has 2 mounting points, you may need to do some modifying, or you can just live with the provided neck strap that allows the unit to lay flat against your chest. Leica may have goofed here. The manufacturer supplied thin neck straps just cut into your neck, so many users change them to camera neckstraps, which are wider and more comfortable. No neck rash equals a happy camper at the end of a long day of hiking.
