RANGEFINDERS

Featuring software by Applied Ballistics and onboard sensors for air pressure, temperature, and angle, the Leica 8x32 Geovid Pro Rangefinder Binoculars will tell you the precise distance to your target—and much more. The Geovid Pro measures to 2500 yards in three-tenths of a second with half-yard accuracy, but it also provides important hunting data. Using your own or pre-loaded ballistic profiles, the Applied Ballistics software shows correction data required for shots out to 875 yards. (You can also pair with a Kestrel device for precise wind and weather info.) Once the shot is made, Leica ProTrack with Basemap integration gives you exact GPS coordinates of where the target was hit, making it much easier to track game.

Optically, the Geovid utilizes Leica's Perger-Porro prism optical design, which combines the compact form factor of a roof prism with the rich depth of field and limited internal reflective surfaces of a traditional Porro prism. The HDC fully multicoated optical system maximizes light transmission while improving color fidelity and contrast. The 4mm exit pupil and 16mm eye relief make for an optic that's comfortable and easy to use when you're out on the range or in the field all day.

Leica employs an open-bridge/dual-hinge design that makes the Geovid Pro light and easy to handle without sacrificing strength or stability. Protecting the optics and electronics is a magnesium alloy chassis that is lightweight and durable. The body is wrapped in protective rubber armor that provides a slip-resistant grip. To withstand the rigors of the trail, the optical tubes are nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof, submersible, and resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme temperatures and environmental conditions.

The Leica 8x42 Geovid HD-R 2700 Rangefinder Binocular combines superior optical performance with a powerful 2700-yard laser rangefinder and ballistic computer into a highly portable and easy-to-use optic.

Optically, the Geovid utilizes Leica's Perger-Porro prism optical design that yields the compact form factor of a roof prism with the rich depth of field and interference-free light path of a traditional Porro prism. To further improve image quality, is an internal baffle system to suppress stray light and the HDC fully multi-coated optical system that maximizes light transmission, while improving color fidelity and contrast. These optical features, combined with a moderate magnification and larger objectives, produce an optic with a wide exit pupil and long eye relief that is comfortable and easy to use with an exceptionally-wide field of view.

The range finding system integrates an inclinometer and ballistics computer with the powerful IR laser to improve first-shot accuracy. Its inclinometer measures the relative angle from the user to the target, then combines that with the linear range, to provide an adjusted distance to enable them to better judge the hold-over/-under. The addition of Leica's Advanced Ballistic Compensation system utilizes one of 12 pre-programmed ballistic curves based on common ammunition loads, combined with the adjusted range and environmental conditions, to further improve hold-over/-under accuracy. Users can also create custom curves on the Leica website and load them onto the Geovid, refining the precision even more. Hold-over/-under values can be displayed as the adjusted range, the relative angle, or in MOA/Mils to enable fast click adjustments to riflescope turrets.
