The KITE OPTICS SP 56 is designed for those who want real optical performance in the smallest possible format. Ultra-compact, lightweight and beautifully balanced. It’s the perfect companion for travel, nature walks and spontaneous observation, anytime, anywhere. -Kite Optics

At just 1.5 lbs., the SP 56 is designed for the hunter who measures success by the mile. This is a high-performance spotting scope that fits in a daypack side pocket, providing 36x magnification without the bulk of traditional glass. Even when paired with a lightweight tripod, your entire optical system will weigh less than most standalone scopes.

The wide-angle advantage! Efficiency is found in the field of view. The 12x Wide Angle (WA) eyepiece allows for rapid scanning and target acquisition. Once spotted, the 36x zoom provides the resolution needed to confirm your target. It is a streamlined system designed for speed and precision.

Why We Chose the SP 56 12-36x Spotting Scope from Kite Optics: We chose the SP 56 because it represents the perfect balance of weight and optical power for the hunter who refuses to be slowed down. At just 24.7 oz, it’s one of the lightest 56mm spotting scopes on the market, light enough to ride in a daypack side pocket on a steep backcountry pack-in without a second thought. Kite’s MHR multi-coating technology delivers natural color reproduction and high contrast clarity, while the one-hand barrel focus system allows rapid target acquisition without breaking your glass position. The wide-angle 12x eyepiece scans fast; the 36x zoom confirms the shot. Waterproof, gas-filled, rated from -20°C to 55°C, and backed by Kite’s 30-year warranty — the SP 56 is the grab-and-go spotter for the weight-conscious hunter who refuses to compromise on glass quality. - HB Optics
