leica prisms have a particular geometry to achieve the reflections necessary to perform a specific imaging task
Leica Prisms
We can supply varies leica prisms (also called a Dach prism as dach is German for roof) is in general any kind of reflective optical prism containing a section where two faces meet at a 90° angle. Reflection from the two faces returns an image that is flipped laterally across the axis where the faces meet.
A single Porro prism is the simplest type of roof prism, though in its most common application (the double-Porro configuration in binoculars ) it is not used as a roof prism.
Other common roof prisms are the Amici roof prism, the Abbe-Koenig prism, the Schimidt- Pechan prism, and the roof penta prism.
