Shipping Calculator
Leica's Geovid-R 8x56 Rangefinder Binoculars combine high-end optics with sophisticated rangefinding technology at an affordable price. These binoculars are ideal for those who have previously been unable to afford a pair of high quality rangefinder binoculars. Despite possessing only a few of the most essential rangefinding tools, the Geovid R series has everything that hunters, bird watchers and nature-lovers need. The linear distance measuring range of 1100m is more than adequate for taking measurements outdoors. Whilst the build quality, mechanical reliability and finish are up to the standards for which Leica products are known.
All Leica Geovid R binoculars possess Leica's typical high-performance optical characteristics, delivering images high in contrast and excellent sharpness all the way to the edge of the field of view, thereby enabling the finest details to be ascertained.
Leica's Geovid R binoculars also feature Leica's equivalent horizontal range (EHR) technology. This technology uses ballistic angle compensation to display the equivalent horizontal range for angle-of-incline and angle-of-decline shots from 10 to 550 metres. This information is visible to the user via an internal LED display, and the required compensation in either centimetres of drop, or clicks in MOA or mrad, is also visible. The internal LED display adjusts for brightness automatically. Twelve different pre-programmed ballistic solutions for different calibres and loads are also available, making these binoculars easy to use for those who have no previous knowledge of ballistics.
The Geovid-R 8x56 features Leica's patented AquaDura® coating on external optical surfaces to permit dust, dirt and fingerprints to be cleaned easily. The binoculars also feature Leica's unique HDC® fully-multilayered coating on all optical surfaces to ensure maximum light transmission, high contrast, neutral colours and abrasion-resistance.
To ensure reliable use in any environment and weather extremes, these binoculars are waterproof and fog-proof by way of being o-ring sealed and nitrogen purged and are submersible to a depth of 5 metres.
The 118 metre field of view of the 8x56 Geovids ensures a generous overview of the horizon, whilst the eight times magnifaction delivers high detail recognition and a stable image. The large 56mm objective lenses and 7mm exit pupil provide exceptional light-gathering ability for unparalleled viewing experiences in low and difficult light conditions.
