See More in Less Light with Twilight Max HD
What really sets the SX-5 Santiam HD apart is Leupold's Twilight Max HD Light Management System. Its combination of excellent light transmission, glare management, and superior resolution simply helps you see more in less light. While competitors design optics that perform well in 'ideal' lighting conditions, Leupold’s Twilight Max HD Light Management System is designed to outperform under any lighting conditions. No matter what time of day you’re glassing, you’ll get the best picture possible. Put it to the test at dusk and dawn, when animals are moving the most, and you’ll really see the difference; often extending good shooting light by 15 to 30 minutes.
Superior glare reduction, meanwhile, ensures the maximum amount of usable light gets to your eye while filtering out the rest, so images don't get as washed out when you’re glassing in the direction of the sun. Combine that with proprietary lens coatings and an elite optical design, and you'll experience a noticeable improvement in contrast and resolution, ensuring you'll be able to see important details like antler tines in heavy timber.
Guaranteed Performance for Diehard Hunters
But what’s the point of having premium glass if it’s not protected? Since Leupold is known for its reliability, you can rest assured that the SX-5 Santiam HD spotter’s rugged armor and scratch-resistant lenses can handle anything you throw at it. Combine that with an ultra-fine focus wheel for crystal clear images, adjustable eyecup for viewing comfort, and a rotating tripod ring for flexibility, and you've got a spotter that checks all of the boxes.
“Spending countless hours behind glass, I appreciate the distinct advantage the new SX-5 Santiam HD gives me when that old bull is hiding in tough low-light conditions.”
