- Fast and accurate. Pressing down on the measure button activates the built-in image stabilization, and the laser to give you useful, accurate range measurements instantly.
- A digital zoom allows you to magnify your image from 6x to 12x to make it even easier to find the flag.
- Built-in Slope Correction allows you to see the true ball trajectory distance based on the incline or decline of your position to the pin.
- The Rangefinder has IPX4 equivalent water-resistance, meaning no need to hide it away if a little rain starts during play.
- If you are having fun on the course, turn the laser off and capture some images or videos, or bring it to a concert or show for a closer look.
- Measurement range of 7 - 800 yards, with an accuracy of +/- 2 yards at maximum distance.
- Impressively compact and light — approx. 0.33 lbs./150g, 1.2” x 2.3” x 3.6”
- Pin Lock function vibrates the rangefinder when it locks onto the flag.

Overview
Introducing the PowerShot GOLF Digital Laser Rangefinder from Canon. Able to quickly measure distance and slope to the pin, you’ll now have the tools you need right in the palm of your hand to improve your game. The PowerShot GOLF is small, lightweight and water resistant, making it perfect to easily carry around the course, even in a little sprinkle. Plus, you can take photos and record video to review after the game to keep learning and improving even off the course
Optical Image Stabilization
Equipped with Optical Image Stabilization, PowerShot GOLF quickly and clearly helps you lock in on the flag by removing slight hand movements.
Slope Correction Technology
Knowing the distance to the flag is crucial to hitting your next shot, but it’s not all the information you need. If the hole location is higher or lower than your ball location, you will need to adjust how hard to hit the ball to go the right distance. That is where Slope Correction comes into play. Slope Correction takes elevation to the green into account and provides you with the distance you need to hit your ball to get to the flag.
You can turn the Slope Correction on or off during play through the user menu. Turning this feature on will measure your distance and factor in the slope to help you choose the best club for your next shot. While playing in tournaments where slope calculation is prohibited, simply turn the Slope Correction function off and a blue LED light near the front of the rangefinder will illuminate to show that Slope Correction is off.
Digital Zoom
Most optical rangefinders have only one magnification, but that isn’t always enough power to find the flag. PowerShot GOLF features an electronic viewfinder that has a standard view (6x) and zoomed view (12x) to get you even closer to see the flag and lock onto it.
Jolt/Vibrate & Pin Lock
PowerShot GOLF has a measurement range of 7 - 800 yards, with an accuracy of +/- 2 yards at maximum distance. PowerShot GOLF also has a flag pin lock function that vibrates the rangefinder when it locks onto the flag.
Photo / Video
Unlike other rangefinders, PowerShot GOLF also has a photo and video camera built in! Use the camera to record your measurements or turn the laser off and start capturing the moment. Whether it’s an unexpected event on the course, or you want to record your swing to look at later, PowerShot GOLF is ready to go.
Size/Weight
To get accurate, real-world measurements, you need optics and a laser, and that can take space. Canon has created an extremely compact digital laser rangefinder measuring just 1.2” x 2.3” x 3.6” and weighing just 150g. Small and light enough to throw in your pocket or use with the included belt case.
PX4 Equivalent Water Resistant
We know a little rain is no deterrent to a golfer, so we made sure it’s not an issue for the PowerShot GOLF too. Get out there when you can, not just when it’s nice!
