The Ultravid class : Binoculars for extreme demands
Nothing demonstrates what is technically possible today quite as well
as the flagship products of the Ultravid class. The housing and centershaft
of the 50 mm, 42 mm, and 32 mm models are made of ultra-lightweight,
yet extremely durable, magnesium and titanium. Two lightweight
exterior finishes are available : soft-touch rubber armoring or
elegant leather. The use of these ultra-light materials, coupled with
perfectly aligned components, guarantees long-term durability at minimal
weight. The thumb rests of the 50 mm and 42 mm models and
the sliding eyecups with two click stops of all Ultravid models ensure a
comfortable viewing experience. Their soft, cushioning rubber element
allows for a comfortable positioning of the eye, and due to the click
stops they can be individually set for the perfect eye relief. The strength
of the Ultravid class is due, in large part, to its high image quality.
The Leica HighLux-System HLS makes that possible. This innovative
system – comprised of a new highly reflective mirror coating on the
prism surfaces and the optimized optical and mechanical design –
further reduces stray-light and generates increase in light-transmission
and contrast, thereby creating an unforgettable viewing experience.
These and other technical advances make it obvious that the Ultravid
class is the new reference class in binoculars.
