Lighter, smaller and brighter than previous Leica offerings, the Ultravid represents an entirely new era in high-performance European binoculars. The Ultravid's full magnesium housing substantially reduces weight and adds considerable ruggedness, while the center axis pin is 100% composed of ultra-durable titanium. The Ultravid also boasts an all-metal, self-lubricating focusing system free of unnecessary lubricants. The unique, three-lens objective system allows the binocular to correct more image errors than the leading competitor's binoculars. The new High-Lux System is a 42-layer prism coating that produces nearly 100% light transmission per glass-to-air surface, thus giving the user the absolute finest image contrast and most natural color resolution across the entire spectrum. Each eyecup is removable for easy cleaning and upkeep. The Ultravid also features an industry-leading waterproof submersion rating of 16.5 ft and offers Leica's Passport Protection Plan. The Passport Protection Plan is the only written, unlimited lifetime warranty in the high performance segment of the optics industry. Includes a neoprene case, cushioned neck strap, objective lens caps, and a one-piece rainguard that covers and protects the two ocular lenses. The Leica Ultravid – there is truly no other binocular like it on Earth.
