[. . . ] The 20-times eyepiece distinguishes itself through its above average image performance and it's especially large field of view of 3. Even at a distance to the pupil of over 20 mm, the complete field of vision can still be surveyed. Because of this, the 20times eyepiece is especially suited for viewing with glasses. The distinguishing feature of this eyepiece is its extreme sharpness right into the edge region. The 32x magnification it offers, gives a large subjective field of view, and is therefore well suited for universal use. Even with this high magnification ­ when combined with the LEICA TELEVID 77 / LEICA APO-TELEVID 77 ­ an exit pupil of 2 mm is achieved that guarantees fatigue-free and relaxed viewing anytime. This allround eyepiece delivers the highest optical performance and offers optimal adaptation to different viewing situations, thanks to the variable magnification. With the help of the zoom ring (on the eyepiece) a suitable magnification for the object can be set. Due to the exit pupil, which is extended towards the rear, those wearing glasses can also see the entire field of view. The eyecup can be turned out to the click-stop position for use without glasses.
