Are these binoculars waterproof?

Can I use these binoculars if I wear glasses?

What is the warranty period?

Warranty information is dependent on the place of purchase, so please refer to your proof of purchase.

Do these binoculars come with a carrying case?

Yes, they include a carrying case to protect and store your binoculars.

Can I mount these binoculars on a tripod?

Yes, a tripod adapter (sold separately) is required.

What is the purpose of the diopter adjustment?

The diopter adjustment compensates for differences in vision between your eyes, allowing you to achieve a sharp focus.

Troubleshooting

Image is blurry.

Refocus using the central focusing wheel and diopter adjustment. Ensure the eyepieces are correctly adjusted for your interpupillary distance.

Image is dark or dim.

Check lighting conditions. The Ultravid HD-Plus performs best in low-light environments. Ensure the lenses are clean and free of obstructions.

Difficulty focusing.

Make sure you are not focusing too close for your subject. The minimum focus distance is 2.9 meters. Ensure the diopter is correctly set.

Fogging inside the binoculars.

This is unlikely due to their waterproof and fog-proof design. If it occurs, contact Leica customer service for inspection.

Lenses have scratches.

Use a lens cleaning solution and cloth. If the scratches are significant, contact Leica for professional repair.
