With premium lenses, a wide field of view, and a close-focus distance of just 8', the Oberwerk 8x42 Sport HD II Binoculars meet the needs of hunters, birders, and outdoor enthusiasts. Antireflection, fully multicoated, extra-low dispersion (ED) glass with dielectric and phase-correcting coatings on the BAK4 prisms deliver bright, sharp, true-color images. The 60° apparent field of view presents a generous segment of the horizon and the close-focus distance allows a good look at that nearby butterfly or bird.

The 1/4"-20 tripod socket will come in handy for long glassing sessions or when you need the binoculars held perfectly still. Designed to stand up to a lifetime of outdoor use, the Sport HD II features a lightweight, rubber-armored metal chassis and the optical tubes are nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed to make them waterproof and resistant to internal fogging.

• BAK4 prisms deliver a round exit pupil and a crisp and clear image with limited edge distortion.
• Dielectric prism coatings boost internal surface reflectivity for maximum light transmission through the prism with minimal loss and diffraction and improved contrast and clarity.
• Phase-corrected prism coatings reduce internal interference to improve contrast, clarity, and resolution.
• Antireflection fully multicoated lenses maximize light transmission for bright and clear images with accurate color rendition.
• The apparent angle of view is a wide 60°.

• Closed-bridge configuration offers a stable platform for the internal focusing mechanism.
• A slip-resistant center focus wheel is easy to manipulate in cold or wet conditions, or when wearing gloves.

Q: 6. Would you explain the difference between the Leica 8X42 ultravid and the 8X42 noctivid? Are either armored?

A: The Ultravid HD-Plus is indeed based on an older mechanical and optical design that has been around for a long time. Its a true and tested performer. The Noctivid is Leica's newest optical and mechanical designs which many individuals at Leica Camera, Inc, worked on for over 6 years before introducing. It shows numerous easily noticeable improvements in performance over not only our existing Ultravid designs, but arguably has been referred to as the new performance benchmark for all. The Ultravid line is complete with 8 different models of full sized binoculars in 32 mm, 42 mm, and 50 mm objective lens models, while the Noctivid is only available in 8x42 and 10x42 models. Comparing apples to apples between the Leica 8x42 Ultravid HD-Plus, and the Leica 8x42 Noctivid binoculars, one immediately appreciates the Noctivids closer focus (almost 5 feet closer than the Ultravid product, down to near 6 feet) as well as the Noctivid's very obvious wider field-of-view (443 feet versus 389 feet at 1,000 yards). Especially when comparing in challenging lighting, the Noctivids superior light delivery is easily demonstrable and since delivered at very high transmission across the entire visible spectrum, the Noctivids high dynamic range lends itself to a seemingly unparalleled depth of focus front to back that offers amazing eye comfort. This feature also lends itself to a very quick focus system. With so much of the field from 50 feet to infinity in focus or near focus so at once, most users find they barely have to refocus and adjustments being made are mere degrees on the focus wheel. This means you are spending more time appreciating your subject in focus and less time trying to get the subject in focus.
