The new era of peak performance

Finding game animals at great distances, and identifying them reliably, is the foundation for an ethical and successful hunt. The Leica APO-Televid spotting scopes appeal to hunters who demand top-class observation optics, for example, those seeking to determine the sex and age of a chamois at long ranges – even in difficult light conditions such as backlighting. The improved apochromatic lenses with AquaDura® coating make this possible. The objective-lens variants APO-Televid 65 and APO-Televid 82 incorporate Leica’s top-class optical system with the new High Lux Pro (HLP™) lens system for unparalleled color neutrality, maximum color-fringe suppression, high image brightness, and highest contrast. For observation experiences that are second to none. The modern design of the APO-Televid spotting scopes, with precise dual focus for quick and easy coarse and fine focusing, promises fascinating moments in nature. A new feature is the integrated mounting base, which can no longer go missing. It is designed for the leading tripods from ARCA-SWISS and Manfrotto.

Top-class optics

Thanks to the High Lux Pro (HLP™) lens system, apochromatic lenses, high-quality AquaDura® coating and the special properties of fluoride glass, the innovative Leica APO-Televid spotting scopes provide unparalleled views of nature. The unrivaled color neutrality, maximum color-fringe suppression, high image brightness with an extra-large field of view are the result of the newly engineered Leica optical system. The ergonomic design and arrangement of the controls guarantee relaxed moments of observation.

Get details faster – with dual focus

With the innovative dual focus, for coarse and fine adjustment, details can be focused with greater ease and precision. The front focusing wheel is used for fine adjustment, while the larger one at rear is used for rapid focusing. From close range, starting at 2.9 meters, to the furthest distances, the Leica dual focus enables the most detailed observation and documentation of wildlife in the finest resolution and remarkable sharpness.

Whatever the weather

The rubber-armored magnesium housing of the Leica APO-Televid spotting scopes combines extreme ruggedness and functional design. It makes the device shockproof and at the same time ensures reliable water resistance – ideal for use in rain, snow, or even an accidental fall into water. The internal optics are protected by an additional front lens glass with Leica AquaDura® coating. The Leica APO-Televid spotting scopes are built on Leica DNA. From the idea, to the development, to the nature experience – everything comes from one source. Optimum optics, made in the EU – at the Leica factory in Portugal.

Preserve experiences forever

The Leica APO-Televid features an apochromatic, bright lens and sophisticated fluoride glass types for maximum color-fringe reduction, e.g. when observing with backlighting. It is perfect for professional digiscoping. Exceptional optical performance renders natural and brilliant colors across the entire field of view. Together with the extensive range of Leica accessories, the APO-Televid becomes the core of a unique digiscoping system for use with a camera or a smartphone.

Close isn’t close enough

With the optionally available Leica extender 1.8x, hunters can get even closer to special moments and recognize details over the longest ranges. Using the Leica extender 1.8x increases the magnification range of the APO-Televid models by a factor of 1.8. In combination with the Leica eyepiece, magnifications of up to 108x are possible – for outstanding observation of details at maximum distances.
