Kowa TSN883 angled scope + Prominar ED

The Kowa TSN 883 Prominar Fluorite Crystal Angled scope is one of the flagships of Kowa spotting scopes with an extremely large 88mm objective lens. The enthusiasm behind Kowa'50 years of spotting scope development is manifested in this supreme model. Its optical performance and user friendliness leaves a most satisfying impression on the user.

This body, designed to be user-friendly, is light and compact despite its large objective lens and metal construction. Logically tailored to meet the needs of the most demanding user, every technical and ergonomic detail has been painstakingly examined and perfected. Users of these advanced spotting scopes will know that they possess an instrument of extremely high quality.

88mm fluorite crystal lens
The pure fluorite crystal used in these models is the optimum optical material for reducing chromatic aberration, providing the ultimate viewing experience.

Large lens, compact size
The telephoto lens design of using 5 lens elements in 4 groups has successfully shortened the overall length of the scope while keeping a large diameter objective lens without sacrificing optical performance. The adoption of an inner focusing system has made the prism box light and compact and at the same time decreases the amount of image movement when compared to conventional prism focusing systems. The highly achromatized objective lens makes the scope as compact as a 60mm class scope without sacrificing performance.

Magnesium alloy body
The magnesium alloy body made by a sophisticated molding process called thixotropic molding has the feel and strength of a traditional metal body with decreased weight when compared to other large-diameter scopes. The rugged structure can tolerate the severest conditions and provides confidence and a sense of security for the user.

Dual focus mechanism
The well established Kowa focus system has progressed to a new dual focus system. The quick focus, with a large and easy to turn knob, will focus from infinity to five meters in two revolutions. The fine focus, with smooth movement and pinpoint accuracy, is extremely useful at high magnifications and for digiscoping systems.

Eyepiece locking mechanism
Kowa's standard eyepiece bayonet mount has been passed down to these new spotting scopes with a new attractive feature. An eyepiece locking mechanism has been added to the mount to prevent the eyepiece from getting lost or falling out unexpected.

Tripod mount
The addition of a brass insert to the tripod mount of thescope allows the scope to be secured to both 1/4 and 3/8 inch mount tripods.

Waterproof and filled with dry nitrogen gas
The housing is waterproof to JIS* Protection Class 7** and filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent the lens from fogging.
