Leica Ultravid Binoculars
For adventurous individuals who are always looking for something new to discover, nature is their realm of constant challenges. They set out to search for unforgettable impressions and images. It is for these individuals that Leica Camera AG develops binoculars and spotting scopes – in other words, optical instruments that embody the full technological know-how of the brand.
Many outstanding Leica binoculars based on this premise have already been created in the past. But now, Leica has succeeded in establishing an entirely new category : The line of Ultravid binoculars. Logically tailored to the intended use, every technical and ergonomic detail was painstakingly examined, perfected or completely reinvented. A housing made of magnesium, a central hinge shaft of extremely sturdy titanium – which materials could possibly be more robust and lighter at the same time ? The optical system Leica HLS™ – which optics could be more brilliant ? The new shape with its outstanding ergonomics – what could possibly be more pleasant to use ? It is the sum of all these qualities that qualify every Ultravid as a binocular for individuals with the highest demands.
