Leica Televid APO-82

Product Overview:

The Leica APO Televid 82 is the perfect tool for experiencing the wonders of nature – even from as close as 12 feet. The superior performance of the 82mm Televid is clearly visible with fine details at a pleasing high resolution in the lowest of light. Plus, for the first time, Leica provides a subjective field of view of more than 60 degree across the entire zoom range with this unique 25-50x variable wide-angle eyepiece.

• 4-part fluoride lens objective brings views of maximum color fidelity and rich contrast.

• Optically neutral front lens glass protects the APO optics.

• 8-element zoom eyepiece with interchangeable bayonet system has an integrated, automatic eyepiece lock for a secure mount.

• Multiple anti-reflection coatings on all air-to-glass surfaces deliver brilliant images that are pin-sharp and highly contrasted.

The Televid focus system
A patented advanced focusing system brings fast and easy travel within reach of your fingers. Two focus knobs are conveniently located on the upper center-line of the spotting scope. Fine focus knob takes 15 revolutions to travel throughout the focus range. Coarse focus knob passes through the entire range in only five revolutions. This arrangement facilitates speedy, accurate focusing at both high and low magnifications. Once the knobs are set, the scope will remain in focus.

A rugged performer in any weather.
Enjoy clear views, even on the foggiest of mornings. Leica's AquaDura™ lens coating ensures greater visibility in the wind and rain, too.

• 100% waterproof, dry nitrogen-purged scope body and eyepiece for fog proof viewing and reliability in any weather.

• AquaDura™ lens coating provides a water- and dirt-resistant protective layer on the outer glass surface that reduces the cleaning required.

• Sliding lens hood with sighting aid keeps dew and stray light off lenses for better viewing.

• Die-cast magnesium housing is strong and lightweight.

• Fully rubber armored for complete protection and quiet, comfortable handling in cold weather.

What about the angled eyepiece position?
This eyepiece design is a favorite among folks watching birds high in the treetops, scanning higher elevations for wildlife, and gazing at the moon. In other words, the angled eyepiece is ideal for people who often view upward from a lower vantage point. If you tend to share your scope with others, you'll find this angled eyepiece position readily accommodates users of many different heights with fewer tripod adjustments.
