    Leica Geovid HD-B vs Swarovski EL Rangefinding Binoculars

    Most things I have read say its down to personal preference as they are both top of the line.

    Leica

    Pros:
    - Better range finder
    - Integrated custom ballistic solution capability

    Cons:
    - Bigger and heavier
    - Another chunk more expensive

    Swarovski

    Pros:
    - Lighter compact unit
    - Better price

    Cons:
    - No custom ballistic solution
    - Range finder not as grunty (but still plenty good enough)


    I have also been told by retailers that their experience has shown Swarovski much easier to deal with for warranty issues and repair / replacement etc. I cant go wrong either way but keen to see if anyone has experience with both.

    Cheers team.
