Are there any other Leica users out there? All I ever see are Zeiss and Swarovski around here. I have a pair of Leica BN binoculars and a 800RF. I compared to all others and liked the Leica product the best. Seems I'm in the minority.

Would you believe I have a pair of 7x42 Leitz - the forerunner to Leica?

If possible, Leitz optics are even better than Leica!!
Just look at some of the old, and I mean old Leitz cameras, they are still "state of the art" after all these years.

I have some Leica 8X40's that I cherish- used em for 25 years.
I also use the Leica RF- had an 800, and when the 1200 came out, I swapped for the 1200. It's really, really accurate.

I went for broke last year and got the geovids in 10x42. Now I have one tool instead of two and think I have the best there is.

I have a 12x50 BN Leica binocular; best money I ever spent. They are heavy, but they are effective. Get one of those binocular "bra's" and you don't have to strain your neck. 12x is about the upper limit for me for being able to hold steady.
