Precise. Elegant. Made for every pocket.
An ultra-compact 8× monocular that slips into a jacket pocket and brings the world close, from a face on a distant stage to the fine veins of a single leaf.
Brilliant Leica optics, in a body smaller than your phone. The companion you actually carry.
112 mm tall, 152 grams.
At roughly 112 mm long and just 152 grams, the Monovid slips into a jacket pocket, a backpack or a small handbag and is easy to forget you are carrying. The slim aluminium barrel still delivers the full 8× optical performance of a far larger instrument. Portability never costs you the view.
The diamond-pattern leather.
The body wears the same diamond-pattern leathering as the legendary Leica cameras. It is more than a styling cue: the leather gives a secure, tactile grip in the hand and shrugs off years of daily use. The result is a discreet, timeless elegance that only improves with age.
90% light transmission.
HDC multi-coated optics and a P40 phase-corrected roof prism push 90% of the available light through to your eye, for bright, high-contrast views with faithful colour. The HighLux HLS coating draws extra brightness from every scene. Fine detail holds up at dawn, at dusk and in shade.
Waterproof to 5 metres.
The nitrogen-filled aluminium housing is sealed against water to a depth of 5 metres and resists internal fogging when the temperature changes suddenly. It shrugs off rain, spray and dust without complaint. A humid morning by the water is never a reason to leave it at home.
Macro views, from 25 cm.
The included close-up lens simply screws onto the objective. It lets you focus on objects just 25 to 30 cm away with razor-sharp clarity, ideal for deciphering a timetable, reading the small print, or studying the fine structure of a flower.
Wherever you go.
In the city, at the theatre, or out in open country, the Monovid is small enough to always be with you and ready in an instant.
Detail you would otherwise miss.
At 8× magnification, distant facades, signage and the faces of performers on stage are pulled close. Up close, the structure of bark, an insect or a leaf is revealed in fine, natural detail.
Colour, exactly as it is.
HDC coatings and 90% light transmission keep the image bright and the colours faithful, right down to the wing of a single butterfly.
