The Leica Geovid Pro 42 is designed for hunters and shooters that require low-light performance combined with a laser rangefinder, a wide field of view, Applied Ballistics software and Leica ProTrack. The patented Perger-Porro optical system delivers a high degree of light transmission, resolution, contrast and a sharp edge-to-edge image through a 42mm objective lens.

Mirroring its compact Geovid Pro 32 sibling, the Geovid Pro 42 rangefinding binoculars were developed ground up, utilizing Bluetooth connectivity with the new Leica Ballistics App. With on-board atmospheric sensors combined with Applied Ballistics, it also features GPS mapping integration through BaseMap and Google Maps. Finally, Leica ProTrack is a feature unique to the Geovid Pro family and takes in-field tracking, surveying and game recovery to a while different level.
