Leica Geovid 10x42 HD Rangefinding Binocular

these are worth every penny i can now hunt early morning & late evening the glare that my nikons gave me was sad but now no glare just clear views i ranged 1086 yds once now these binos are the best my friends ziess are not better than these

I purchased three sets if Geovids for a long term bird research project. Estimating distance is the foundation of most songbird monitoring projects as it allows biologists to calculate accurate density estimates for various bird species encountered on surveys. Having binoculars, rangefinders, thermometers, clipboards and whatever else is simply too much for an observer to handle and still have there head up enough to make good, accurate observations. Geovids are one of the best binocs out there for optical quality and a first rate rangefinder and allow the observer to get exacting distances on each bird in view...at much longer distances than standard rangefinders, and allow the observer to be "looking" not fumbling with equipment. The cost of a good set of binoculars and a decent rangefinder used separately is simply not that big of a savings given the serious handicap it presents. I would seriously encourage any biologist considering their budget items for a bird study involving distance estimation to invest in these binoculars.

Durability, looks and how it functions is awesome, no guessing when i bow hunt or rifle hunt on distances.if you know your arrow or bullet at any range what it does you will be a successful hunter.optics are crystal clear,as good as you will need in the field. I've had my Leicas for 5 years now and its 2 tools in 1. If your someone who cares about making a good shot you need to pick up a Leica rangefinder binocular.the price tag for one of these is nothing compared to all the game i spotted and harvested. I birdwatch with my wife with these,she even loves them. The battery for the rangefinder is simple to replace in seconds. Focusing is fast,comfortable to the eye -very important for glassing for hours. It changed my hunting forever!
