The new Nikon MONARCH 3000 STABILIZED is the latest example of Nikon changing the game with its innovative rangefinder technology. With an effective range of nearly 2 miles (3,000 yards) on reflective targets, we’ve tripled the ranging capability compared to our award-winning, image-stabilized laser rangefinder introduced last year. For 2018, we’ve also added an all-new variable intensity red OLED display that provides either automatic or five selectable brightness levels for maximum contrast against most targets and backgrounds in virtually all lighting conditions. For incline or decline shooting angles, the MONARCH 3000 STABILIZED is equipped with Nikon’s ID Technology that takes the angle out of the equation.

Our remarkable ability to remember quotes from practically any movie, and our skill in catering to almost any person in South Africa.
The latter is the harder of the two, because A) we haven't met everyone in the R of SA and 2) our personal tastes can hardly be used as a benchmark for things other people may enjoy.
Still, through sheer determination and never-miss-an-episode viewings of Egoli and Generations, we like to think we hit the proverbial nail on the head more often than not.
And in the almost unfathomable event that we're completely wrong and nothing on our cyber-shelves appeals to you, we'd like to leave you with the following gem from Lord of the Rings:
"Use the force, Harry." - Edward Cullen.
