Additional As the key successors to the well-renowned original Ultravid HD, Leica's Ultravid HD-Plus Binoculars are here to make a serious statement. They deliver improved colour fidelity, wider contrast, and a consistently bright image. These HD-Plus binoculars thrive in low-light, making them ideal for observing nature that is most active during dawn and dusk.

In addition to this, you are supplied with Leica's P40 phase correction and High Lux System (HLS) coatings. Planning for your next big adventure?
