Leica APO-Televid 65 Spotting Scope Summary
The Leica APO-Televid 65 Spotting Scope is a compact flagship 45º angled spotting scope for demanding observation in the field. It delivers the same class-leading apochromatic lens system and High Lux Pro (HLP™) optical coatings as the 82mm version, but in a lighter, more portable format. At just 1,070g and under 30cm long, this model is perfect for extended field use and travel, while still achieving exceptional colour accuracy, sharpness or contrast.
The APO-Televid 65 features Leica’s patented dual-focus mechanism, which enables both quick adjustment and fine focusing with greater accuracy. The angled eyepiece mount offers a comfortable viewing position, while the robust magnesium housing provides long-term durability plus comprehensive weather protection.
This spotting scope is part of Leica’s comprehensive modular digiscoping system too, which allows for seamless image capture when using a range of dedicated accessories. The Leica Q, SL, or M cameras can be mounted when using the dedicated 35mm adapter, or a smartphone via Ollin’s magnetic Snapcase and mount. This transforms the APO-Televid 65 from observation to high-quality image capture.
This Televid scope is ideal for applications such as nature and wildlife observation, land surveying, and long-range scientific studies, with professional-level optics, housed in a very portable form. Optional Vario eyepieces (25-50x WW ASPH or 20-60x) and a 1.8x extender further enhance versatility.
