Part of the durable Ultravid line the Leica 10x42 BN Black Binoculars represent the best possible optical performance coupled with a remarkable compact and rugged body design. This achievement was made possible through state-of-the-art computer-aided optical design and the use of special high-grade optical raw glass and structural materials. With 10x capabilities these binoculars offer the highest magnification in the series. The newly designed eyepiece cup provides convenience and comfort especially noticeable in improved steadiness when viewing over long distances.

Although compact these binoculars have a 42mm lens diameter that is nearly as high-aperture as 50mm binoculars with only a 10% difference between the two in calculated twilight performance. This new model features an ergonomic design for relaxed handling including a back-sided formed thump support for a slip-free grip and the large central focusing device which enables fatigue-free operation. The large field of view sharp from center to edge in combination with exceptionally high image brightness and greater overall steadiness sets this professional-grade instrument apart form the competition. It is coated in shock-absorbing black rubber. Ensure that you are ideally equipped for observation from a distance with these durable Leica binoculars.
