Chief boast for the Leica Televid HD spotting scope is not just best-in-class performance, but, according to the German brand, ‘the world’s highest image brightness’. A bold claim indeed. Available with either 65mm or 82mm objective lenses – I had the latter to look at – it’s the baby brother to Leica’s APO-Televid series.
That line-up likewise offers 65mm or 82mm optics. Theoretically, the bigger the lens, the more light let in, and the sharper and brighter the view. So I’m expecting the Leica Televid HD 82 to be a good option for when natural light isn’t in my favour.
