## Description

A quality 10x bino is hard to beat because it delivers significant magnification in a lightweight package. With the perfect field of view for dense brush, yet enough power for long-range detection and high-definition performance, the BX®-1 McKenzie™ HD 10x42mm binocular won't let you down. Designed around Leupold’s Advanced Optical System, it offers tried and true light transmission for extended glassing sessions, best in class glare reduction in harsh light, and the resolution and clarity that recreational sportsmen and sportswomen demand. It comes with Pro Gear® accessories, too: including a GO Afield™ shoulder strap, binocular case, lens covers, and lens cloth. And like all Leupold® binoculars, it's fogproof, waterproof, and guaranteed to perform for life.

Review: Amazingly good binos for the money. I would definitely recommend. The only down side is the storage case - it’s weird! There are straps everywhere and completely unnecessary.
Review: Excelente calidad y precio, me agradó que estuviera acompañado de su maleta para guardarlo.
