It has typical Leica great build and design. Mine had a very nice and  smooth focus. The barrels are a little slimmer than the UVid and it's a little heavier. I remember the optics were nice overall , but some bad CA at times out of dead center.  CA was controlled well in the center though.I find my 7x42 HD+ to feel more comfortable to hold and it's a little lighter. A big part of why I like it better than the old Trinovid is due to the benefits of the 7x42 format.  It's my impression that the optics in the 7x42 Plus is a good step up. The image is cleaner and has a quality I struggle to describe; some have described it as "washed clean" and that sounds about right to me. There's much less CA as well and it's a bit brighter with great colors and excellent contrast.That's a great price for the Trinovid ... you got a great deal on a very nice bin.</blockquote>
