I have used the bushnell and the Nikon and they both are easy to use .I went with the nikon but only because I used thier survey equipment at work .The prices are pretty close .

RE: NEW LASER RANGEFINDERS
If I were to do it again I would spend the extra money to get the Leica instead of the yardarge pro. It has much better optics, ranged from 10 to 800 yards, and had a bright red read out that would work much better in low light conditions. My yardarge pro 400 only reads to 20 yards and is useless when the light starts to fade because of the black read out. Plus the optics are like those cheap scopes you get on marlin .22.
Don't get me wrong it works well and I love having it, I just wish I would have forked over the extra money and got the one I wanted.

PS. The little bushnells range down to 10 yards, I bought the full size model and it does not.
