New: LEICA TELEVID Range
Experience the spectacle of nature close up, without disturbing it - for over ten years this has been the domain of the Televid high-performance spotting scopes with their optical performance and this special viewing quality which has set the standard.
The latest Leica Televid generation redefines this standard: talking to experienced users, asking detailed questions about tried and tested constructions and completely new developments have led to a sophisticated and elegant line with 82 mm and 65 mm diameter objectives. They are the most compact spotting scopes with the shortest close focus distance in their class. The innovative APO models with their highly elaborate, apochromatic objectives use new kinds of fluoride glass (FL) for an image quality that gets even closer to the ideal. The fully rubber-protected magnesium die-cast housing keeps the sophisticated optics safely protected from tough conditions outdoors and always remains silent.
The newly developed Leica AquaDuraTM coating reduces fogging and allows moisture droplets and dirt to simply roll off ensuring clear visibility - even in wind and rain. Another innovation is the completely newly developed variable wide-angle eyepiece with 25 x to 50 x magnification. It provides the discerning observer with a spectacular subjective field of vision of over 60° which remains sharp right up to the edges - across the entire zoom range ! This is unique, and ensures a totally new viewing experience with fantastic magnification. With these and many more benefits, the innovative Televids help you to experience and understand nature even more intensively.
Picture description: With the Leica AquaDuraTM hydrophobic layer (top), a water droplet attaches itself considerably less than with a conventional hydrophilic layer (bottom), on which the angle is significantly less.
