Birdfair 2016: the official Noctivid launch

This year was an extra special Birdfair for the Leica team with new binoculars, bespoke biscuits, and, of course, birders everywhere.

I've owned them all and these are my favorite. Exceptional quality, super bright, clarity and color rendition without peer and the best focus wheel I've used. They are a bit stiff to fold in and out adjusting interpupilary distance but that might be by design. No biggie.

[@tamilhoward9708]

Can't wait to experience these!

[@caspersj1165]

0:35 are they actualy saying that the noctivid have nightvision? They look amazing!

[@danijelljusic1370]

They nearly fell down at 0:47 LOL

Only the Zeiss Victory bins, are better. I spent three hours at my local RSPB reserve shop, and i was able to look through the entire range of Leica, Swarovski and Zeiss binoculars, all with different magnification. The nicest ones to hold, were the Leica Trinovids, they just felt right, a beautiful weight, and the perfect size for my hands. The binoculars that had the clearest image, were the 10x42 Zeiss Victorys, and at over £2000 a pair, you would expect them to be good

Well then, since you spent a few hours inside a building with numerous binoculars it must be true, the Victories must be the best. It’s official then.🤪✌🏼

[@mariumrajah]

Your right Upon looking through all the high end Names Zeiss Victory was bright & blues were popping more then Swarovski & Leica . My ideal setup would be Zeiss victory 8.5x42 binz & Swarovski Bino scope..

Focus wheel too far back , very uncomfortable to use , I’ll stick with my Ultravids much better

[@rolf5914]

Yes , the Ultravids are better. Even the old trinovids from 1995 until 2004 are better than the new noctivids

[@GM-bq6zo]

I noticed that, wheel too far back.

Why all Leica video has dead colors? Not impressed me at all.
