Pre-Orders are now available and ship February 12th!

We have been testing one of these beauties for a while now, but today we can finally reveal some more information! This is Swarvoski's all new for 2019 digital rifle scope. The Swarvoski dS 5-25x52 P enhances their legendary optical performance by connecting to your smartphone through Swarvoski's dS Configurator app on your iOS (iPhone / iPad) or Android device via Bluetooth. The allows you to configure the following parameters and more:

- Personal Ballistic Data
- Thickness of Windage Marks
- Size of Aiming Points
- Duration of Aiming Point and Distance Display
- Wind Speed for Wind Aiming Points (2 default values to choose from)
- Display of Impact Energy as an option in joules
- System of Units (Metric/Imperial)

Another major highlight is the automatic holding point. The key benefit for hunters is that the correct aiming point will be displayed automatically straightaway in the rifle scope. When you press the button, the dS measures the exact distance, having factored in the magnification setting, air pressure, temperature, and angle. The personal ballistic data for your firearm/ammunition combination, determined during sighting in, are also used when performing the calculation. The windage mark intervals are calculated based on the distance measured, the wind speeds set, and the ballistic data. There is no more need for any manual adjustments to the dS before the shot is taken.

Find all of the specifications and claim your pre-order here.

I would be happy to answer and questions! We have had a lot of hands on time with the scope and app now!

How has this worked for you guys in your testing? Was it tested in all conditions and found to be accurate? Once everything is ranged and calculated, how long does the holding point reticle stay? How long does it take to give you the correct holding point once you have the animal ranged?

It's been great so far, really enjoying the smart features of the scope combined with the exceptional optics you expect from Swarovski. We have tested in many conditions and it's very accurate in all of them. We have killed animals at 400 yards at 45 degree angles. The holding point is instantly displayed and stays for 60 seconds on default but can be adjusted to 40 or 80 seconds as well. It gives you a heads up and blinks if you want to re-measure. I copied some other specs for the illumination below.

Brightness Levels: 64
Measurement Range: 33-1500 yds
Measurement Precision: ±1 yd (±1 m)
Measurement Time: ≤0.7 seconds
Angle Measurement (degrees): ±60º
Max. Aiming Point Correction: 1120 yds
Display Switch-Off Warning: 10 seconds

Let me know if you have any other questions. I hope that helps!
