Leica Geovid : HD or BRF model?

[ultra7mm]

I am looking to purchase some 10X42 Geovids. Is the glass in the HD model worth the difference in price from the BRF model?
Thanks,
MS

Whatever you get be sure and get it soon to qualify for the $350 rebate direct from Leica. I chose not to go HD.

I have seen situations where the HD glass gives better resoluation in low light conditions... but it is minimal. The real factor is to take advantage of the Leica Rebate like Flyingbrass mentioned... that is a super deal! Either way, you won't be sorry! NJS

I've got the non HD model and I love them. Great glass. If I had to do it all over, I'd get the exact same pair. I don't think the extra money is worth the small percentage of gain, but that's me. If money is no object, go for the HDs.

Thanks for your information. I am ordering the non HD geovids while the rebate is still going.
