Callaway Rangefinder LR800 Review

!±8± Callaway Rangefinder LR800 Review

Not quite a LR1200, but definitely superior to the LR550, the Callaway Rangefinder LR800 review is meant to be that of a mid-line rangefinder. Still, due to the fact that it bears a price tag which rivals that of a high-end rangefinder, the expectations placed on it are skewed upwards.

After all, the common point of view is that if it costs as much as a high-end rangefinder, or more, then it should fulfill those criteria.

Slightly Less than Magnificent in Range and Magnification

As the Callaway Rangefinder LR800 review discovered, the main area in which it takes a hit as opposed to the LR1200 is in both range and magnification. Still, at an 800 yard maximum range, it isn't too bad in that respect for all but the most extraordinary of circumstances.

Unfortunately, the reduced magnification of 6x was a slightly bigger problem during the Callaway Rangefinder LR800 review. Naturally, magnification ties in with the targeting ability, and to have that affected is a very big downside for a rangefinder.

This is only compounded by the fact that most rangefinders in this price bracket would offer a 7x magnification level.

Questions of Taste and Familiarity

Most of the other features are similar to the LR1200, from the 20-second scan mode, to the 'one touch' controls, LCD backlight, and 'first target priority' targeting mode. As with other reviews of this line, the Callaway Rangefinder LR800 review has to admit that Callaway's first target priority mode still does appear to pale in comparison with Bushnell's Pinseeker mode.

Really, the one area where Callaway's rangefinders do find a niche for themselves is in the speed of their measurements. Here, the Callaway Rangefinder LR800 review must admit that it is only just a fraction slower than the LR1200, which is commendable.

All said and done though, this does not entirely make up for the shortcomings, but as some have reported, once familiar with the first target priority mode, it could be used to get quick readings. In turn, this allows golfers to concentrate more on the shot, and less on acquiring the actual reading.

Basically, it all seems to boil down to a question of taste. Some do appear to value the LR800, and there are many a favorable Callaway Rangefinder LR800 review that would bear testament to this. Yet others are not entirely sure regarding how good it is as far as value for money is concerned.

But, for anyone who does like Callaway rangefinders, then the LR800 deserves a glance or two.
