    vortex are bringing out a rangefinder binoculars.

    They are called by the gay name of Fury.
    Due out very soon.

    Vortex Optics - Fury HD Binoculars

    The glass is more viper than razor, but its a start all the same.
    Price will be 1600 US for now.

    I want a simple range finder that mounts to my rifle - press a button and it displays on a little LCD screen that I can see from behind the rifle.
    But I'm not going to pay $999 USD for it!

    The funny thing is that once they get imported, and the US wholesaler/retailer have their cut, they'll be the same price as HD-B Leicas.

    I have vortex razors. Brilliant light gathering. And a leupold rangefinder.
    It is indeed a pain spotting something with the binos, then changing to the rangefinder then hopping on the scope and zooming in.
    I use my binos for rabbits, wallabies and bigger game all the time.
    But the razors have better glass than the new furys. So I'll wait.
