Product Overview
Leica Noctivid 10x42
It bears repeating that we live in the golden age of optics. Almost every optics manufacturer makes affordable binoculars that are better than anyone could get in the 1970's. And today’s top shelf optics are nothing short of phenomenal. Leica’s 10x42 Noctivid premiered at Bird Fair 2016 in Britain and has wowed viewers ever since. A one-hand grip on the barrel and you’re enjoying a 376-foot field of view, which is still better than many 8x42s. The view seems more three-dimensional than other binoculars. Other than the field of view, all other specs match the 8x42 Noctivid, including the 6.2-foot close focus. With 19 mm of eye relief, four click-stop eyecups and a 56 mm minimum IPD, these fit nearly all adults. Schott HT glass prisms, high temperature plasma multi-coatings and internal baffles to eliminate stray light help create a high contrast, nearly achromatic image. They tip the scales at 30.3 ounces, but really don’t feel heavy. Or maybe you’re too engrossed in the view to think about it.
