The construction guarantees a sharp view without color fringing or aberration from Edge to edge. The diopter is adjusted with the touch of a button. Thanks to the double hinge, they can be easily folded and stored. Leica uses an aluminum body on the Ultravid bcr 10x25. This helps to keep the weight down and, along with the rubberized coating, makes the it comfortable to hold. In addition, the full rubber-armor makes the Leica Ultravid BR very resistant and reliable in any situation. Leica 25 Ultravid BR compact binoculars with 10x magnification are brighter, sharper and more rugged than many other glasses with this lens diameter. brilliant, contrast rich, high resolution Images as well as outstanding stray-light suppression set This optical model apart in their class. main features: Exit pupil: 2.5 mm Twilight factor: 15.8 field of view at 1, 000 yds/M: 273 ft/90 m eye-relief: 15 mm eyepieces for eyeglass wearers: Yes waterproof up to 16.5 ft/5 m Review: Probably the best compact 10x25 binoculars - you (have to) pay premium to get almost flawless higher quality - Probably the best compact 10x25 binoculars - but with some compromises Tested this model against the trinovid 10x25 and Swarosvki CL 10x25 - dismissing the trinovids was easy, has it was very obvious right away they did have a lower sharpness and subdued color. They were lighter and felt a bit flimsy too. The Swarovski, was a different story - very sharp, nice contrast, but they are 4 ounces heavier, a bit thicker and I dislike the diopter adjustment wheel. OTOH, the eye cups are better designed and found the pouch, raincover and strap a better deal than with the leica. So why the Leica Ultravid? weight, overall size, and better controls.As far as optics, I barely can tell the difference. To my eyes, the Ultravids seem to have a more pleasant blur. They supply an eyecup cover set,which the swaros don't. Both models don't come with front lens covers The Leica strap is pretty flimsy, and not sure how well it held in the field, so likely will have to be upgraded. Wish they would offer lens covers. Overall outstanding optics and craftsmanship - you (have to) pay premium to get almost flawless higher quality Review: Excellent -- It's worth it. - I need a pair of bins that stay in my car, that I can take on a casual walk, or take with a big lens (500-600mm) camera for spotting. These tiny 8x20 are perfect. The image quality is excellent. I had some Nikon 10x25 but it was very difficult to get the eyes to align and I often got double image. These Leica's are very easy to get aligned and they focus very easily. The push-button diopter adjustment is great! No accidental changes. I picked these over the 10x25 because my main pair are 10x and these 8x have better close focus. They see about 8.5" at minimum distance. Your center of view is about 4", so a single flower looks good. The 10x see about 11.5" at minimum distance. It's not as good as the Trinovid HD (at 4.6" FoV minimum distance), but those are giant compared to these guys. I don't mind having no front lens caps -- I never use them anyway. But I'm not going through wind blown sand or extreme dust. The case is easy to use and slide the bins in/out. It's a bit bulkier than some cases, but small nonetheless. I appreciate that there's no velcro. ## Features - High magnification - Small compact size - Unique single knob diopter correction - Waterproof to 16.5 feet ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0007L6JHK | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,316 in Camera & Photo Products ( See Top 100 in Camera & Photo Products ) #650 in Binoculars | | Brand | Leica | | Built-In Media | Binoculars | | Coating | yes | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | General binocular accessories | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (160) | | Diopter Adjustment Range | 80mm | | Enclosure Material | Rubber | | Exit-Pupil Diameter | 2.5 Millimeters | | Eye Relief | 15 Millimeters | | Features | Includes a woven carrying strap, eyepiece cover, Cordura case with belt loop. | | Field of View | 273 Feet | | Focus Type | Center Focus | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00726984402530 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 2.4"L x 4.5"W x 1.4"H | | Item Weight | 255 Grams | | Magnification Maximum | 25 x | | Manufacturer | Leica | | Manufacturer Part Number | 40253 | | Model Name | 40253 | | Model Number | 40253 | | Mount Type | Tripod Mount | | Objective Lens Diameter | 25 Millimeters | | Prism Type | Roof Prism | | Size Map | 10x25 | | Specific Uses | Bird Watching, Hiking & Outdoors, Hunting, Travel | | UPC | 796793849758 799429402532 726984402530 | | Warranty Description | Manufacturer | | Water Resistance Level | Waterproof | | Zoom Ratio | 10 multiplier_x | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** Leica - **Magnification Maximum:** 25 x - **Objective Lens Diameter:** 25 Millimeters - **Special Feature:** Includes a woven carrying strap, eyepiece cover, Cordura case with belt loop. ## Images ![Ultravid BR 10x25 Robust Waterproof Compact Binocular with AquaDura Lens Coating, Black 40253 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51nws3-c3zL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it include the carrying case?

I am a retired wildlife biologist and have owned Swarovski, Ziess, Leica, Nikon, Milolta, and numerous cheaper brands of optics equipment. For convenient travel size, bright and clear focus, solid and durable with high quality construction, very close focus and good light gathering quality, these waterproof mini binoculars are my top choice for travel or nature hikes. Don't waste your money on disappointing cheap binoculars. If you appreciate quality over price, and use and carry binoculars frequently, these are the best you can get. ## Frequently Bought Together - Leica Ultravid BR 10x25 Robust Waterproof Compact Binocular with AquaDura Lens Coating, Black 40253 - Leica SF 40 Flash - for Leica Q3 Thumb Grip Camera Thumb Support Grip Aluminum Handgrip with Protective Film --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/12597546-ultravid-br-10x25-robust-waterproof-compact-binocular-with-aquadura-lens](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/12597546-ultravid-br-10x25-robust-waterproof-compact-binocular-with-aquadura-lens) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-09*
