This is a great help for outdoor measuring. The integrated
pointfinder (viewscreen) shows the target on the display.
The device measures in the middle of the cross hair, even if
the laser dot is not visible.
Parallax errors occur when the pointfinder camera is used
on close targets, with the effect that the laser appears displaced in the crosshair. In this case rely on the real laser dot.
