Features & Applications:
Innovative BLUETOOTH® technology makes data transfer lightning fast! No more typos or incorrect reports. Just quick, accurate measurements when you need ’em. The DISTO D8 has all the benefits of the DISTO D5 with the added bonus of 360° tilt sensor and three additional math features for measuring tall objects, objects on different planes and profiles. Now it's easier than ever to measure horizontal and vertical distances, balcony and window heights, roof slope and those hard-to-read heights without reflective points. A must-have in any home professional’s tool arsenal.
360° Tilt Sensor:
The combination of angle and distance measurements allows you to determine distances where conventional methods fail. The horizontal distance, for example, can also be determined quickly and efficiently past obstacles or the elevation of a tree, even though there is no reflective point.
Digital Pointfinder:
Thanks to the digital Pointfinder with its 4x zoom and high resolution 2,4“ colour display, you can measure long range distances quickly and easily because you always see your targeted point.
Bluetooth®:
With integrated Bluetooth® technology, measurement results can be wirelessly and accurately transferred to Pocket PCs and PCs. Thus you can easily process your data in Excel®, Word®, AutoCAD® and other programs.
Software:
The delivery package contains the transfer software “Leica DISTO™ Transfer” – easy to install and with automatic updates. The AutoCAD® plug-in additionally allows convenient planning and drawing with your AutoCAD® software.

Comments about Leica Geosystems Incorporated Leica Disto™ D8 Laser Distance Measurer:
We use the Leica D8 to measure communication measurements on utility poles. We've used standard Bosch laser's in the past but have been limited to daytime use due to direct sunlight. This unit works in broad daylight due to it's LCD screen and magnification. We're able to measure between poles (>300') quite easily and pinpoint an overhead cable that is 3/4-inch thick with a tripod. Very accurate and easy to use. High quality instrument.
