I currently have a Leica but I lose the dot visually in sunlight.
Anyone make a green laser one? |

The Leica disto comes with a pair of super cool looking red tinted shades. These are like the opposite of laser protection goggles for the red aiming diode laser.
They block out most of the non-red light in the scene, making the red laser light much more visible. If you didn't get any with the disto you can buy cheap on ebay. I have three pairs in my office as well that I bought. If you have the camera Leica (like a Disto D8) the camera crosshairs also work too. It is expensive. A cheaper alternative is to take the 1/4-20TPI camera tripod mounting on the disto and place it on a picatinny rail to attach it to a green gun laser and or scope and or red dot. I have done all of these things to use them to several hundred feet in bright sun. |
