Leica Televid APO spotting scope 20-60x77

Here is a fantastic full size spotting scope by Leica. This is one of the very best spotters that is preferred by bird watchers because of the color fidelity.

Of course it's not just for bird watchers. It's great for any kind of wildlife watching or hunting.

You can see animals from miles away. 20-60x77 means that this scope is variable power and can be adjusted between 20x magnification up to 60x magnification. The most important number is the 77, which means that the objective lens is 77mm in diameter. This is critical for light gathering so that the view is always bright. For the person who wants a top quality spotting scope made in Germany this scope will impress you. This is the APO-Televid 77. The APO version uses superior high density glass for better color preservation. The APO stands for apochromatic, which is what separates Leica from all other brands. It shows the truest colors. Be careful of the non-APO models that sell much cheaper. Also be careful of spotting scopes that don't include the eyepiece. This is a complete scope body with eyepiece and lens caps as shown in photos. This older model is a great value. There are no scratches anywhere on the glass. There are two minor scuffs on the aluminum body (shown in the last two photos). The eyepiece is tight and the two focus dials are perfect. The focus dial closest to the eyepiece is the fast focus and the dial closest to the objective is the fine focus to achieve the perfect image. Weighs 4 lb - 7 oz (71 ounces).

I'll accept a return if you aren't satisfied. Here is what others are saying about the Leica Televid APO 77. The "Ferrari" of spotting scopes. Evolving to meet a goal of offering a bright, virtually aberration free view, shock proof (to 100 g's), corrosion and water resistant telescope. The Leica APO-TELEVID spotting telescopes offer the top optical and mechanical quality.

These are superbly well suited to hiking in any environment, for visual and. Uses in ornithology, for observing nature, long distance inspection and surveillance, and for some applications in astronomy. The APO TELEVID 77 telescopes employs fluorocrown optical glass in an air spaced three element (triplet) apochromatic configuration designed to provide precise optical color correction. Colors of the spectrum have differing wavelengths; in a normal optical glass prism the red and blue rays are bent at slightly different angles as they pass through. This dispersion results in color fringing and less sharpness.

In normal to wide-angle lenses this is imperceptible or is corrected with other techniques, but telescopic lenses magnify the variation in focus between red and blue light rays; this glass technology had to evolve to solve this problem. The APO TELEVID employ the multi-layer coating process to prevent light reflection off the surface of, or between the lenses; this process and internal baffling virtually eliminates ghost images and flare, and it improves color rendition. All of this achieves a dramatic increase in image contrast and actual light throughput, with a corresponding reduction in flare that could otherwise be caused by internal reflections. All TELEVID models feature a unique dual transmission focuser; this allows a coarse rapid, and a fine focus control. A 3/8" and 1/4" threaded base accepts a variety of tripods.

The zoom eyepiece B20-60x is adapted to the TELEVID bayonet mount in the same quick and precise way as the other eyepieces: a 30 degree turn locks the eyepiece in position or removes it for using a different eyepiece or the photo adapter for photographing and documenting the observed object. Actual Field of View at 20X. 34m at 1000m (2 degrees). Actual Field of View at 60X.

20m at 1000m (1.2 degrees). Field of View for Eyeglass Wearers. Ocular Length (eye cup retracted).
