arrive some time after Christmas 2007 LEICA ULTRAVID HD 50 - greater sight in low light The Ultravid 50 series are ideal for viewing right into the depths of dusk due to optimized image per formance, thanks to new high-definition lenses and Leica AquaDuraTM coating for greater visibility in poor weather conditions. LEICA ULTRAVID 8 x 50 HD Fatigue-free viewing, even under poor light conditions. The 8 x magnification guarantees a steady, sharp image, without the need to constantly refocus. Even extreme cold cannot keep the robust Ultravids from delivering the ultimate viewing experience : the new focusing mechanism on the Leica Ultravid HD models works with high-performance Teflon disks and almost no lubrication. This ensures constant smooth focusing - even at temperatures as low as -25 degree, where other binoculars would surely fail. The Ultravid class The Leica Ultravid class had already impressed with its outstanding technical achievements and its superior optical quality. Now, with the innovative Ultravid HD models with 50, 42 and 32 mm objective diameters, the Leica engineers have once again succeeded in setting new standards. The use of new, fluoride lenses (FL) further optimizes the color fidelity of the images. It has been possible to further increase the level of image brightness - without compromising color fidelity and contrast which are often necessary. In terms of stray light reduction too, the refined HD models achieve new top-of-the-range performance, and thus once again underline the pioneering role played by Leica. As a further benefit, the Ultravid HD range has Leica AquaDura TM , a new kind of coating for exterior glass surfaces which improves viewing comfort. Fingerprints and dirt can be removed more easily than ever. Moisture simply rolls off the surface and visibility remains unimpaired.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Leica 8 X 32 BN
Advantages: Boasts a never before seen touch interface. Disadvantages: Battery life can deplete rather quickly depending on use.
Where to start?
The Ipod Touch comes with 3 capacites. It has 8gb, 16gb and finally 32gb. I myself have the 8gb model and don't see the need for the extreme 32gb.
The "iTouch" boasts a touch interface that is way ahead of anything else on the market. Just a simple tap and everything is at your beck and call (who needs a click-wheel anyway?)
The latest model boasts such things as safari web browser (wi-fi required) or e-mail (must set-up account). Youtube itself even is given its own button!
You can watch movies (£7 from iTunes), Music videos (£1.89) or view video podcasts.
You also have the option of google maps, weather and even stocks to keep up with the economic crisis.
Finally, a main selling-point for the touch is the new applications, never before seen on previous ipods. You have the choice of litteally hundreds that are free ...
Advantages: Weight, ergonomics, clarity, brightness, ease of use Disadvantages: 8x mag

Some words of explanation... The name 'binocular' derives from the Latin bi (meaning two) and oculus (meaning eye) and describes a hand held optical device whose function is essentially to magnify distant images using an eyepiece and so allow them to be examined in detail.
* Objective lens - this is the large lens at the far end of the binocular.
* Ocular lens - the lens in the eyepiece.
There are two main designs of binocular:
* Porroprism: traditional, classic shape and design.
* Roof-prism: recognized by its straight tube like appearance.
Prism - a block of glass with triangular section having accurately polished edges, used to reflect light. Roof prism binoculars tend to have straight barrels.
What do the figures mean? All binoculars have a set of two figures indicating ...
