Leupold BX-5 Santiam HD 15x56mm Binoculars, Shadow Gray

Overview

The Leupold BX-5 Santiam HD 15x56mm is a high-magnification, open-bridge roof-prism binocular built for detailed observation at extended distances. Its Professional-Grade Optical System combines an Abbe-Koenig prism design, phase-coated optics and fully multicoated HD lenses to support clarity, contrast and light transmission. DiamondCoat 2 helps protect exterior lens surfaces, while the Guard-Ion coating sheds water and dirt. A built-in rotatable 1/4-20 tripod adapter port provides a direct mounting option for steadier viewing, and the waterproof, fogproof housing is equipped with twist-up, field-replaceable eyecups.
