Leica Geovid 10X42 3200.com Rangefinder Binocular

Description

Adding Bluetooth connectivity to smartphones running a companion app and a longer metering range than previous models, the Leica 10x42 Geovid 3200.COM Rangefinder Binocular is the future of hunting, improving accuracy at extreme long range while reducing the amount of gear you need to bring into the field.

Utilising Bluetooth connectivity puts the memory and computing power of your smartphone to work to take the information provided by you about your rifle and ammo plus Geovid's ranging and sensor data to provide an accurate shooting solution. Additionally, you can include data from a Kestral Elite wind metre for more precision, and solutions and information can even be shared to your Apple Watch for improved ease of use. The range-finding system integrates an inclinometer and ballistics computer with a powerful IR laser to improve first-shot accuracy. Its inclinometer measures the relative angle from you to the target, then combines that with the linear range to provide an adjusted distance to enable you to better judge the hold-over/under. The addition of Leica's Applied Ballistic Compensation system utilises one of 12 preprogrammed ballistic curves based on common ammunition loads, combined with the adjusted range and environmental conditions, to further improve hold-over/under accuracy. You can also create custom curves on the Leica website and load them onto the Geovid, refining the precision even more. Hold-over/under values can be displayed as the adjusted range, the relative angle, or in MOA/Mils to enable fast click adjustments to riflescope turrets.

Optically, the Geovid utilises Leica's Perger-Porro prism optical design, which yields the compact form factor of a roof prism with the rich depth of field and limited amount of internal reflective surfaces of a traditional Porro prism. To further improve image quality are P40 phase-correcting prism coatings, an internal baffle system to suppress stray light, and the HDC fully multi-coated optical system that maximises light transmission while improving colour fidelity and contrast. These optical features, combined with a powerful magnification and wide apparent angle of view, produce an optic that is comfortable to use all day, in all weather, and in all light conditions.

Leica employs an open-bridge/dual-hinge design that makes the Geovid lighter and easier to handle without sacrificing strength or stability. Protecting the optics and electronics is a magnesium alloy chassis that is lightweight and durable. The body is wrapped in a protective rubber armour that provides a slip-resistant grip. To withstand the rigours of the trail, the optical tubes are nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof, submersible, and resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme temperatures and environmental conditions.

Key Features:

Optical Performance

• High 10x magnification enables detailed observations of distant subjects like animals, athletes, and architectural details
• 42mm objective lenses deliver the light-gathering capability required for extended use during the pre-dawn and late dusk hours
• Perger-Porro prism optical design combines the rich depth of field and limited internal reflective surfaces of a Porro prism light path with the more compact straight-line optical tube of a roof prism to minimise light loss and internal diffraction
• P-40 phase-correcting prism coatings correct the light exiting the prism to improve resolution and eliminate ghosting
• HDC (High Durable Coating) fully multi-coated system has abrasion-resistant and anti-reflection properties to protect exterior lens surfaces and maximise light transmission with a natural neutral colour fidelity and improved contrast
• Internal baffle system suppresses stray light for improved contrast
• Hydrophobic AquaDura coating on external optical surfaces allows dirt, dust, and fingerprints to be removed easily without leaving residue on the lens surfaces
• Wide 65° apparent angle of view helps to minimise the appearance of the distracting hand shake that is common when holding high-power optics to present the user with a more comfortable experience
• 342' field of view at 1000 yd
