Vortex Fury 5000 vs Leica Geovid HD-R Binoculars | ADVISOR INSIGHTS with Jerrod Lile

Jerrod Lile takes a look through the new Fury 5000 range finding binoculars, and compares them with his Leica Geovid HD-Rs. Given the quality, price point, and warranty Vortex offers, these binos are hard to beat. www.vortexoptics.com & www.leicaoptics.com

You solidified my choice to buy the Fury and saved me 1800bux. Just got my new pair of HD 5000 binos and all I can say is HOLY SMOKE!!! THESE ARE NICE!!! I already have a pair of the fist gen Fury Binos and have enjoyed using them for the last 5 years. These are EVEN BETTER! Very clear glass. Fast ranging out to 2000 yards so far. I wanted a pair that would reliably range farther then the original Fury binos because I'm shooting chucks at long ranges in Idaho and the first gen were nice but fell short quite often past 8 to 900 yards. These will be able to range farther than I can shoot so all targets within my max effective range are in trouble. BTW, one of my shooting partners has a pair of the Leica GeoVid binos and I like these more! Better field of view and clearer glass. (also the price is awesome)

Absolutely great video and review of the Fury's! Thanks for all of the info, very well done! Time to try out a pair.

[@firstnordic]

One of the best reviews I´ve seen, well done 👏 You helped me choose my rangefinder scope in the best way. I also agree with Your review about tha glass being very good not perfect but the best in this price range but a bit slower response in the electronics in rangering. Well done!

[@swandme686]

Great Review We love the Fury's too

[@juanjosehernandez46]

awesome review! thanks man. already subscribed. cheers from Mexico City!

[@mattgore8999]

Perfect video. Thank you

[@micfasto8700]

Thanks for video.

[@fog8969]

Too bad they don't have built-in compass to immediately add direction to the distance for use in closely map plotting location of observed object. Otherwise you have to put them down to use a separate compass. Great video. Very well-done. You have the gift. (Also, makes us want to pull the trigger on a Fury purchase.)

[@blainestockwell6957]

Great review!

[@huntinfool_official]

Thanks!

[@Jeff-mo5gc]

Thank you!

[@123colinfrost]

Dang it Jerrod, you're going to cost me a small fortune!

[@ST-bk5uf]

Have you had a chance to look at the Geovid 3200

[@beefugax]

Which HD-R model are you using in the comparison? There were three iterations. What is the five digit model number?

[@rodneycarpenter6673]

I am also red/green color blind. I want to buy some rangefinding binos. I have a leupold rangefinder and can't see the display because it is red. Do you have that problem with the geovids or fury?

[@fluphenazine1879]

I'm getting into long range shooting up to 1000 yards. What scope is the best fit in your opinion and did you do a video on that? Upvoted and Subbed to your channgel. You guys got me hyped with that Wall Tent!!

[@huntinfool_official]

Check out the vortex LHT, we did a video on it under our advisor insights playlist

[@surfearth1]

What drone were you using? Fabulous flight video!

[@huntinfool_official]

Mavic 2 pro, thanks!

[@swandme686]

Asked but I did not see the answer What Drone and Camera system was used to get that great cinematic feel especially at 7:04 - 7:13

[@huntinfool_official]

I'm running the sony a7iii and the mavic 2 pro. Been very happy with both.

[@TheSamba7]

What tripod were you using? Great video! Thank you!

[@huntinfool_official]

That was just an old cheap one we had, but a lot of us here in the office use the slik tripods when hunting and have been happy with them.

[@roderickformosa2423]

What about the ballistics and atmospherics, leicas show them. What about fury 5k?

[@simmondsfamily]

Do the fury’s give a tbr or just line of sight ?

[@509Gman]

They can compensate for angle.

[@ST-bk5uf]

There are newer versions of Leica available,why weren't they tested?

[@MusikPiratCH]

If those Geovids are on par of the Noctivids then I'd give Leica the upperhand over those Vortex Fury 5000. It's perhaps due to your color blindness that those green and red seem warmer on the Fury. I have the impression that the Leica (as with the Noctivids) have a more golden tone which I really prefer over those Vortex! 😍

[@kruzmisile]

What's your Tripod?

[@huntinfool_official]

That was just a cheap office tripod, I currently use a slik and love it 👌

[@michaelhumpherys1577]

Utah??

[@huntinfool_official]

Yup 👍

[@michaelhumpherys1577]

@@huntinfool_official I love our State, its out of this world beautiful. Looks like around an area I know well.

[@huntinfool_official]

@@michaelhumpherys1577 you got it, and I agree it's a pretty awesome place to live 👌

[@duanecalhoon3322]

Why can't they add a MOA or mrad scale? That would make them the perfect bino,,, you can range then figure out size by scaling it to a scale all at one time. I get so tired ranging then having to get out the rifle to scale it to figure out the size. Total waste of time when it could be so convenient to use the bino for everything

[@TeensierPython]

Why are you trying to judge size? Normally you estimate the size and use that to estimate range using a scale. How accurate can you get?

[@hmoobshow2482]

Toss the Sig Kilo3000 in there too

[@davidkennedy3050]

You can't fairly evaluate color if you are color blind.

[@huntinfool_official]

Truth, Jerrod and I both looked at multiple faces and came to the same agreement

[@chadknutson848]

What ramifications is he using

[@lmbear]

Bs. I have had the furry 5000 testing side by side with the Leica geovid 10x42R model and the Leica was better. These Leica's are a better comparison with the Furry 5000 Vortex because they are much closer in price. The led display was easier to see in the Leica as well. The glass is better on the Leica's too. You must be a Vortex fan boy or distributor. Try to keep your videos honest man.

[@user-ou3bh5sl2y]

Blabla - blabla i don se nafen

[@prestont5769]

There’s no comparison. Vortex is garbage compared to Leica.
