Among the new generation of Leica Binoculars, the Leica Ultravid HD-Plus 10x42 Binoculars stand out by providing exceptional light transmission that creates the sharpest views of birds, created by internal prisms that are made from specially formulated Schott glass. A total of 12 precise Schott HT glass lenses provide impressively sharp details, natural colors, and increased brightness matched with the improved geometry of lens surfaces for never before achieved edge-to-edge image sharpness.
Overall, these Leica Binoculars guarantee excellent natural colors and contrast, clear sharp views, and optimum details of the birds you view with outstanding image brightness across the field of view with considerably improved low-light vision – all so important to improving the quality of your birding experiences.
The high-precision focusing system provides a metered focusing speed, twist-up detents that enhance your personal viewing experiences, and the new eyepiece design provides longer eye-relief (16mm) and nearer close focus (9½ feet). The higher 10x magnification affects the field of view, which is a generous 330 feet at 1,000 yards, but for many birders the 10x magnification is a worthy compromise to get a closer look at birds encountered.
In terms of handling, these Ultravid Binoculars are ideally matched to birders' needs, including frequent use under the variety of viewing conditions birders encounter in the field. The light-weight, high-strength magnesium body has a patented hardness Class 8 surface coating for superior protection. And the shock-absorbent rubber armor provides an ergonomically comfortable grip in your hands while protecting the binoculars from damage with added impact protection.
Ultravid HD-Plus Binoculars also have superior seals to make them waterproof at the highest rated level and they are nitrogen-purged to provide fogproof performance in any weather. Also, the innovative AquaDura coating ensures a crystal-clear view in all types of weather and protects the lenses against scratching and abrasion.
