Our Take on Leica 10X32 Ultravid HD-Plus:

With the Leica 10X32 Ultravid HD-Plus binoculars, the viewing experience is fully fog-proof as the tubes are nitrogen-filled. The P40 phase correction and the High Lux System (HLS) coatings of the prisms that are attached to the roof highly improve the performance. They reduce chromatic aberration and enhance color rendition. The device provides an apparent 67% viewing angle to compensate for the hand shake issue common with 10X and larger optics. Hence it doesnt need any stabilization assistance devices. There is also a +/_ 4 right-eye dioptric adjustment in the unit. The lubricant-free center-focus system is a fast focus-change mechanism that is also precise. The focusing movement is also smooth in the entire operating temperature range, thanks to the PETP discs construction.

The Leica 10X32 Ultravid HD-Plus binoculars house small objectives and have the chassis constructed with a magnesium alloy material. Besides, the hinge axle at the center is also of a high-tensile titanium material. These factors reduce the devices weight and size and make it highly portable and comfortable to hold for extended viewing sessions. The High Durable Coating (HDC) on the lenses protects them from scratches and abrasions. The additional AquaDura coating makes any liquid or oil to flow off instead of sticking to them. It safeguards the lenses and helps in easy cleaning and getting a clearer view.

The thumb rests at the bottom of the Leica 10X32 Ultravid HD-Plus binoculars enhance ergonomics by allowing comfortable holding. The eye-cup mechanism twists up and locks with a click, which also adds the convenience of use. And there are rubber grips that prevent the unit from slipping away and dropping. Another safety feature is that the apparatus has a sealed construction to make it waterproof up to a depth of 16 feet, which is around 0.5 bar water pressure.
