Description of Leica APO-Televid 65 Spotting Scopes

The APO-Televid series was introduced in 2009 and received a major update in 2016. This supreme tool for observing nature is made for those who demand high-quality optics packed in a rugged housing.

There are two models available in the Televid spotting scopes series which differ in the diameter of the objective lens. The smaller model’s objective lens measures 65 mm in diameter while the bigger model Leica APO Televid 82 is equipped with an 82 mm objective lens.

Both models feature Schmidt/Pechan prisms, which are of the roof type. Leica uses many of their coatings on the Televids (they are fully multicoated), including the AquaDura coating which is applied to the external parts of the lenses to prevent dew and dust accumulation. The user can use them in extreme temperatures such as –25°C, which is a proof of nitrogen filled body and quality workmanship. The modern fluoride lenses provide for an image high in contrast and with perfect colour fidelity. Leica’s dual-focus system gives the user an ability to set the focus very precisely.

These spotting scopes work extraordinarily on their own but are also an excellent accessory for professional digiscoping. The outstanding optical performance of Televid, combined with high-quality Leica Cameras, will result in photographs rich in detail and with maximum contrast. All the accessories for spotting scopes can be found here. 

APO-Televid 65 is the model that is equipped with an objective lens that measures 65 mm in diameter. Naturally, it is more compact than its bigger counterpart – it measures 30 cm in length. The body weighs approx. 1150 g. As such, the scope is an ideal companion for long, demanding hikes or treks. Another specialty of this quality spotting scope is that it has one of the shortest close-focusing limits in its class – 2.9 m. The rugged magnesium alloy body makes it shock-resistant and the rubber armouring on the device’s surface makes the device nice to the touch.

To be able to use the device, the user must merge the body with the eyepiece that can be purchased together with the body or separately. The eyepiece allows 25x–50x magnification and will provide a wide field of view.

All APO-Televid models are made in Portugal.
