Classic Styling with Modern MaterialsCompact Roof Prism Light PathHDC and AquaDura Lens CoatingsComfortable Eye Relief, Wide Exit Pupil Leica took design inspiration from their original 1960s models using 21st Century materials and optical innovations to produce their 8x40 Trinovid Classic Binoculars . Elegantly wrapped in leather, the look and feel of the binoculars are a throwback to those carried on the first Apollo mission to the moon with the optical performance you expect from Leica.
A compact roof prism light path and scratch-resistant High Durable Coating (HDC) and hydrophobic AquaDura lens coating work together to produce bright and clear high-contrast views with minimal distortion across the entire spacious field of view. Their moderate 8x magnification produces a comfortable eye relief and wide exit pupil that not only present an immersive viewing experience but greatly improve long-duration viewing comfort, even in low light conditions.
Complementing the views produced by the Trinovid are construction details that make this optic as much a conversation starter as they are useful daily-use binoculars. First is a lightweight, sturdy, and corrosion-resistant aluminum chassis that makes these binoculars light and easy to handle. The body is covered with textured black leather that protects them from bumps and impacts while giving them a firm and steady grip in cold conditions. Their optical tubes are resistant to light rain and splashing water, so they will hold up if you get caught when the weather takes a turn.
Optical Performance
- Moderate 8x power magnifies the view without sacrificing exit pupil or eye relief, ensuring its use is comfortable in all light conditions
- 40mm objective lenses gather the light needed to ensure views remain bright and clear even in challenging light conditions without adding excessive weight and bulk
- Roof prism light path produces a compact form factor without sacrificing performance
- Scratch- and abrasion-resistant High Durable Coating (HDC) and hydrophobic AquaDura coating on outer lenses protect surfaces and cause water and oil to bead off lenses for easier cleaning and clearer vision in bad weather
- Spacious 370.5-foot field of view at 1000 yards
