Questions & Answers

FAQ

What does 'fully multi-coated' mean in the context of this binocular?

Fully multi-coated means that all air-to-glass surfaces have received multiple layers of anti-reflective coatings. This results in better light transmission, brightness, and contrast.

What is the benefit of the 'KR Coating' on this binocular?

Kowa's 'KR Coating' enhances the overall optical performance of the binocular. It also has dirt-resistant properties, making the binocular easier to maintain and clean.

Why is the binocular filled with dry nitrogen gas?

The binocular is filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent the internal optics from fogging up due to temperature changes or humidity.

What does 'phase-corrected prisms' mean?

Phase-corrected prisms in the binocular help in enhancing resolution and contrast. They correct the phase shift that can occur with light reflection, providing high-quality, sharp images.

What is the advantage of the 6.2-degree angle of view?

A 6.2-degree angle of view provides a wide field of view. This makes it easier to track moving subjects, such as birds or wildlife, and enhances the overall viewing experience.

Returned

The Kowa 8X25s arrived way out of collimation. It’s impossible to say whether this happened as a result of poor quality control or the shipping process. Either way or both, back they went the day I received them.
