Power of the Human Eye and Distance Recognition
The German study outlines how accurately a person can recognize others at various distances. A good eye recognizes a person seen before at about two feet, an intimate acquaintance at 160 to 420 feet, and a very dear relative up to 500 feet. Lifeman vision, body movements clear to 300 feet, limbs visible to about 600 yards, with blurring beyond. Hunters and ranchers with long sight can nearly double these averages.
