    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    I decided that if I found a Zeiss Victory 8x25 or Leica UV 8x20 at a good price, I would buy it immediately. I just missed a Zeiss at an excellent price, only 400 euros buy it now. The seller from Germany did not specify whether or not to send to Romania, and until he answered my message, the...

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    By the way, I found in Romania a Leica Trinovid 8x20 the latest model. The price is very attractive 250 euros. It's like new. Maybe I should buy it. I had one and when I compared it to the latest SLC WB 8x42 model, I was extremely pleasantly surprised at how close the two binoculars were in...

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    Thank you Eitan, it is becoming clearer to me that UV 8x20 or any other 8x20, cannot offer you a visual experience at the level offered by Zeiss 8x25. I'm waiting for one at a good price on Ebay. But as I said above, if in the meantime an 8x20 UV appears at a price like $ 400-450 as Alexis...

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    pm42, thanks for the photos, it's amazing how small Leica is next to Zeiss. Leica seems to be able to fit in a much smaller pocket than Zeiss needs .

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    Thank you Mike for all the kindness, any comparison between the two binoculars is welcome for me, the more useful information the better. And maybe not just for me. I see that this topic is read with a lot of interest.

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    Wow, Alexis, very consistent useful flow of information. I must admit that in recent days I have been leaning more and more towards Zeiss, but if I happen to find an 8x20 UV first at an undeniable price, I will not hesitate to buy it.

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    Thanks Mike for the tips, very interesting 3 day testing method proposed by you. But it will be difficult for me to be able to have both in possession soon. Rather, I will be able to buy one at a time, depending on my budget. Since I can't decide which one to buy first, I'll let fate decide. I...

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    Mac, I'm a security guard at a public library. My job is to keep order in the institution, and more recently since the pandemic, to make sure that no one enters the building without a mask. So not much, especially since the influx of people is not as infernal as at the airport. The whole front...

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    Hello everyone, I just woke up, turned on the computer and: WOW I was overwhelmed by the abundance of posts. Here's what I've understood so far: In terms of optics, the differences in resolution and contrast are relatively small, with some preferring Leica colors. So it remains to be decided...

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    Thank you fazalmajid, I would have a question for you, I hope you don't consider it too stupid: If Leica would also make an Ultravid 8X25, with 130 meters field of view, possibly HD, also with two hinges, you think you would like it much more Leica than Victory 8x25?

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    Thanks Mac 308, from what I read in other reviews I suspected that UV 8x20 has an extraordinary resolution. As for what pm 42 says, I think in the end the best solution will be to have both. Let's see how I manage with the necessary money. Thank you both for your involvement in this thread.

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    Hi mwhogue, I read your post with a lot of emotion, I must confess that I have a great inclination towards Leica which in my opinion has the most interesting design, in addition I would like the best optics in the smallest package and if Zeiss does not it is obviously superior optically to Leica...

    Leica UV 8x20 versus Zeiss Victory 8x25

    Hello everybody. I'm thinking of buying a pocket binoculars. I had all the pocket binoculars made by Leica, Zeiss, Swarovski and Nikon, in the variants of 8x20-8x25 and 10x 25 except for two: Leica Ultravid 8x20 and Zeiss Victory 8x25...
