Leica Camera Co. 8x42 Trinovid HD Binoculars

These binoculars are lightweight, but seem to be very well made. The image is clear and bright, and easy to focus. There is a good angle of view also. I use them primarily to view wildlife from the windows and patio of my home. They have easy to use individual adjustments for each eye to correct for differences in acuity. They are made in Portugal, one of the few binoculars under $1000 NOT made in China. They are relatively expensive, although I think they are worthy of the price.

These binocs are exceptional for bird watching. The images are vivid and absolutely stunning. Almost better than real life. The 8x42 makes them very easy to scan and follow birds that are jumping around. Expensive but worth their weight in gold even though they are very light in weight

Great glass, great price. Do the research. Best glass in this price range. Better than most binos even higher priced. You sacrifice a bit of field of vision at 1000 yards, but it’s worth it for the other advantages, like superior light-gathering and color-rendering.

We love Leica brand. they are of supreme optical quality. Very well made, give very bright and clear views. the bag that comes with the binoculars are very handy as well. This is the older model which the manufacture are phasing out, but they are best buy for the money.

Wonderful binoculars. Amazingly clear. Almost brighter than the subject is in real life. Problem is the covers on the front of the lens come off. The cups are linked to a band that supposed to fit tight on the end of the binoculars, but they slip off and thus the cup is lost. Leica replaced the protective cup and band at no cost. I still have to find a way to keep it on. The harness that holds the glasses is good but a little awkward to wear.

Wonderful binoculars! The Leica optics are known for exceptional quality . These 8x42 are no different. Plan to take them on many birding walks and trips.

Perfect for bird watching.

Light, razor sharp, and a good value for this kind of glass. Shallow field of focus.

Purchased the 8x42HD Trinovid 40318. Binoculars is as expected but it arrived with a cheaper basic brown neoprene bag rather than the advertised adventure strap.
