Description
Kowa Prominar XD spotting scopes are manufactured in Japan to the highest standards and are the pride of the company. Their design uses vicorized optical components and high-quality materials. The Kowa Prominar XD 25-60x88/45 (TSN-883) spotting scope is equipped with a large 88 mm lens made from hardened fluorite crystal lenses. Prisms with phase correction and lenses with extra spherical coating ensure clear, sharp images with excellent detail. The image of the table is crystal clear, so you can protect it from the wind. The lightweight, ergonomic body of the Kowa Prominar XD 25-60x88/45 (TSN-883) pipe is made of solid magnesium alloy. The design has a high level of water resistance and is filled with dry nitrogen, which prevents fogging of the optics during sudden temperature changes.
The Kowa company is the only one on the market that produces vicorist lenses from pure fluorite for the production of lenses in its spotting scopes. Kowa clearly confirms the superiority of Pure Fluorite Crystal over all types of Extra-Low Dispersion glasses, including those with added fluorite, which has been repeatedly confirmed by tests and expert opinion.
Designed for digital scanning - like all Kowa spotting scopes, the Kowa Prominar XD 25-60x88 spotting scope is designed as a versatile and versatile optical instrument. The body is equipped with standard reliable bayonet mounts for different eyepieces. You can choose from a wide selection of Kowa accessories to complement DSLR cameras, compact system cameras and smartphones to capture powerful telephoto shots at great distances
1.6X EXTENDER - With the Kowa TSN-EX16 optical enhancer ( sold separately), you can further increase the proximity to the object by 1.6 times. Paired with the TE-11WZ eyepiece, your spotting scope will be magnified up to 96x without sacrificing image clarity. Kowa's optical technology and miraculous lens coatings provide marvelous optical performance with less than 5% light consumption at a great increase. Ideal for monitoring high altitudes and digital copying for both terrestrial and astronomical objects.
Lens Filter - The 95mm thread on the lens housing allows additional filters to be inserted in order to positively impact the target environment: e.g. You can make it easier to watch out for waterfowl by minimizing glare on the surface of the water with the help of polarizing filters
Visible sun hood - prevents unwanted light from entering, thus eliminating unwanted glare when viewing or digiscoping. In the hour of misfortune, the lens of the lens is stolen from the dust and snow.
Double Tripod Mount - The new flexible tripod mounting system mounts a forged or wrapped sight on the tripod shoe, providing additional stability in the event of heavy lifting. Changes the rules of the game in maximum handiness and kerovanost in the field minds.
Waterproof housing - The waterproof housing is compliant with JIS 7 safety class according to the Japanese industry standard. When the device is sealed, it becomes sealed and waterproof at standard temperature conditions. Such options are not scary in everyday life.
Anti-fogging means that the middle of the housing is filled with dry nitrogen, which prevents the condensation of moisture on the internal surfaces when there is a temperature difference. As a result, the optics do not fog up in the middle, and there is also no corrosion of materials due to the infusion of moisture. The dust is removed from the equipment and replaced with an inert gas (in this case nitrogen N2), which does not contain water vapor in its storage and does not condense
The body is made of magnesium alloy - always equal to the small size and hardness of alloys; magnesium is used in various industrial applications with improved performance characteristics. The housings of the optical tubes and binoculars, made of magnesium alloy, are made of high-quality materials and are subject to high-quality processing, which will positively impact on the external appearance is pleasing to the eye. The optics in such housings will serve as a guide for as long as possible.
Made in Japan . It is no secret that Japan has long occupied first place among the countries in the development and promotion of advanced technologies in almost all fields of science and technology. Today, the Japanese are patenting more innovations in optical technologies, ousting the Germans, who had long held a leading position here. Moreover, the philosophy of putting things to work does not allow the Japanese to spoil the average product. The very modest, scarlet inscription “Made in Japan” testifies to the high level of technology and the unproven quality of the product. In other words, you take away the best from the best.
