Leica Televid APO 77 Angled Spotting Scope
UK STOCK – 12 MONTHS WARRANTY – INCLUDES VAT – FAST SHIPPING
*Ex-Display Model* As New. Supplied in Original Box with lens Caps (No Instructions or Eye Piece)
The “Ferrari” of spotting scopes, evolving to meet a goal of offering a bright, virtually aberration free view from a compact and lightweight (1695g for the 77mm Televid), shock proof (to 100 g’s), corrosion and water resistant telescope. The Leica TELEVID and APO-TELEVID spotting telescopes offer the top optical and mechanical quality. These are superbly well suited to hiking in any environment, for visual and Photographic uses in ornithology, for observing nature, long distance inspection and surveillance, and for some applications in astronomy. The Magnification and Field of View provided by these telescope are determined by 1. the telescope focal length (77mm telescope), and 2. the optional eyepiece which is attached to the spotting telescope body; a weather tight seal is maintained at that coupling. The obvious differences between the Leica TELEVID spotting telescope bodies are aperture (77mm), Eyepiece Position: this is provided by angled elovation, a 45 degree angled telescope body. Basically speaking, if you intend to observe objects overhead (in a canopy of trees for example), or for limited uses in astronomy, or for the convenience afforded when sharing the telescope among people who vary notably in height, or for using the telescope on shorter more compact tripods, then we suggest the angled body. For quicker sighting when using the camera adapter, or for observing from a car window mount, then we suggest the straight through view body.
Each factor is just as important as the other to assuring long term satisfaction of the customer. Regardless of those choies, each TELEVID telescope incorporates many unseen technological innovations only hinted at in the following cutaway:
Our Apo TELEVID 77 telescopes employs fluorocrown optical glass in an air spaced three element (triplet) apochromatic configuration designed to provide precise optical color correction. Colors of the spectrum have differing wavelengths; in a normal optical glass prism the red and blue rays are bent at slightly different angles as they pass through. This dispersion results in color fringing and less sharpness. In normal to wide-angle lenses this is imperceptible or is corrected with other techniques, but telescopic lenses magnify the variation in focus between red and blue light rays; this glass technology had to evolve to solve this problem. Both the Apo and standard Televid’s employ the multi-layer coating process to prevent light reflection off the surface of, or between the lenses; this process and internal baffling virtually eliminates ghost images and flare, and it improves color rendition. All of this achieves a dramatic increase in image contrast and actual light throughput, with a corresponding reduction in flare that could otherwise be caused by internal reflections. All TELEVID models feature a unique dual transmission focuser; this allows a coarse rapid, and a fine focus control. A 3/8″ and 1/4″ threaded base accepts a variety of tripods.Additional eyepieces, a protective and superbly engineered Cases are still readily available, color and polarizing filters (the filter thread is on the retractable dew cap), solar filters to safely view the Sun by Company Seven, and Camera Adaptor are among the available options for this product. With the optional camera adapter, you can employ the TELEVID Apo as an 800mm f10.4 ED ultra telephoto lens of Leica quality.
