Garmin Montana 650T

Now there’s one handheld GPS for three very different activities. Whether you're on foot, on the road or on water, the new Garmin Montana 650t from Garmin will guide you wherever you go. With a vast 4” sunlight-readable touchscreen that offers crystal clear enhanced colours, dual orientation display and high sensitivity HotFix® positioning to track your location, it’s easy to see where you are at all times. Both durable and waterproof, Garmin Montana 650t is built to withstand the elements.

Navigate with Ease

The Garmin Montana has key features for the outdoors such as a 3-axis tilt-compensated compass which shows your heading even when you’re standing still, without holding it level. It also has a barometric altimeter which tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude, and you can even use it to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions.

It is also preloaded with European recreational mapping with detail including national, state and local parks and forests, along with terrain contours, elevation information, trails, rivers, lakes and points of interest. Just in case you’re wondering how steep that hill really is, Garmin Montana’s 3-D map view helps you visualise your surroundings, giving you a better perspective of the elevation.

Take Geotagged pictures

Capture locations and memories with Garmin Montana 650t’s 5-megapixel digital camera. Each photo is automatically geotagged with the location of where it was taken, allowing you to navigate back to that exact spot in the future. To keep track of your photos and show their location on a map, simply connect Garmin Montana 650t via USB and use Garmin’s free BaseCamp™ software.

Go Anywhere

With an array of compatible mounts, Garmin Montana 650t is designed for use on boats, as a handheld, off-roading or in your car. Use the auto mount with City Navigator NT® or Garmin GB Discoverer™ maps for spoken, turn-by-turn driving directions. Wherever you think you might take Garmin Montana, it has the mapping and mounts to get you there.

Go everywhere

Mapping options include the City Navigator maps for use in the car, BlueChart® g2 preloaded cards for a great day on the water, Garmin GB Discoverer™ which provides Ordnance Survey mapping on your handheld and BirdsEye™ Select that lets you download customised sections of premium raster-based maps to your device and integrate them with your maps. Garmin Montana is also compatible with Custom Maps which transforms paper and electronic maps into downloadable maps for your device.

Share Wirelessly

With Garmin Montana 650t you can share your waypoints, tracks, routes and geocaches wirelessly with other compatible Garmin GPS users. So now your friends can also enjoy your favourite hike or cache – simply press “Send” to transfer your information to other units.

Keep in charge

Garmin Montana 650t features a one-of-a-kind dual battery system. You’ll have the option of using the rechargeable lithium-ion pack or traditional AA alkaline batteries – whichever suits you best.

Q:

Details: Hi, Have seen a review in the Feb 2012 issue of PcPro. It states that This item comes with pre installed maps at 1:50,000. Is this correct? I thought that the pre installed maps were at 1:100,000. The price quoted was £510. Can you also confirm if you give discount to HM Forces/Veterans. Many Thanks
