The SX-5 Santiam® HD 27-55x80mm is designed with rugged performance in mind, whether you need all-day performance in the backcountry or a bright, clear image at the range, this spotter will deliver at the highest level and in the toughest conditions. The versatile 27-55 magnification range hits the sweet spot between performance and weight, while the straight eyepiece matches up with your line of sight making it intuitive to use when acquiring and tracking targets.
Built around Leupold’s Professional-Grade Optical System, it offers unmatched light transmission that’s designed to outperform in the most challenging lighting conditions, with industry leading glare reduction providing a clear image in harsh, direct light, and resolution and clarity that will meet the demands of any professional guide or shooter in the field. Exterior lens surfaces are treated with DiamondCoat 2, an ion-assist lens coating, for higher light transmission and the greatest level of abrasion resistance, with the additional advantage of assisting in light transmission for greater brightness, clarity and contrast.
The Arca-Swiss base attaches easily to compatible tripods without needing an adapter plate and accommodates tripods that aren’t built on the Arca-Swiss system, using its integrated ¼-20 threads. It features twist-up eyecups and generous eye relief for comfortable extended viewing. The SX-5 Santiam HD is designed and assembled in the USA, and like all Leupold spotting scopes, it’s fogproof, waterproof, and guaranteed to perform for life.
