Leica10x50 HD Plus binoculars, boxed and in absolute pristine condition, i have put ‘used’ but they are like-new. They come boxed with Leica strap, Leica protective case, rainguard, objective lens caps, Leica lens cloth and manuals. These binoculars are superb and give extremely bright, sharp, crystal-clear images, they are brilliant in gloomy light conditions and have an amazing field of view of 117m at 1000m and very smooth to focus. This model costs 1,890 in the shopsI will post by Royal Mail Special Delivery.Leica Ultravid 10×50 HD PLUS
With the Leica Ultravid 10×50 HD Plus binoculars, Leica have designed and constructed a new generation of Leica Ultravid binoculars with considerably improved light transmission and resolving power. The Leica Ultravid 10x50HD Plus binoculars are identified by an engraved HD in red on the strap lugs of the binoculars.
This new model is particularly suitable for use in twilight / low light conditions and are optically stunning in all conditions with an amazing 117m at 1000m field of view.
The use of new, fluoride lenses (FL) further optimizes the colour fidelity of the images. It has been possible to increase the level of image brightness without compromising colour fidelity and contrast which are always necessary.
Improved Light Transmission:
In terms of stray light reduction too, the refined Ultravid 10×50 HD Plus binoculars achieve new top-of-the-range performance. Specially developed software simulation allows stray light to be seen during development stage. Consequently, thanks to an optimized housing shape, improved light-absorbing paint, apertures and stray light traps, the construction of the new Ultravid 10×50 HD Plus binoculars have been optimized to such a degree that stray light is (almost) no longer of any significance.
New AquaDura Coatings:
A further benefit in the Ultravid 10×50 HD Plus binoculars is Leica AquaDura, a new kind of coating for exterior glass surfaces which improves viewing comfort. Fingerprints and dirt can be removed more easily than ever. Moisture simply rolls off the surface and visibility remains unimpaired. This has been made possible by a special glass surface structure. In a similar way to the lotus plant, dirt and moisture find it more difficult to take hold.
However, Leica AquaDura does not have any negative influence on the transmission performance of the optical system, and also provides better protection against scratching.
NEW Focussing Mechanism:
The mechanics for the Ultravid 10×50 HD Plus focusing have been further refined. As a result, focusing is even smoother and remains free of play across the entire range. Optimized material pairings and gliding discs made from extremely tough, high-performance plastic are used. In cold conditions, the conventional greased focusing mechanisms sometimes only work with difficulty, and at higher temperatures they move too freely. Furthermore, these focusing mechanisms can feel sticky and notchy, and at higher temperatures there is even the danger that grease can escape and run on the lens. With the optimized Leica focus, these risks have been eliminated. (Very welcome indeed).
