About Kowa TSN-88 PROMINAR

88mm Pure Fluorite Crystal Series.
When crafting the TSN-88 PROMINAR series, Kowa went back to its roots in optical design. Roots which have made it one of the most popular spotting scope manufacturers in the world. To enhance a basic fundamental feature that PROMINAR users enjoy every time they look through their eyepiece - natural color.

Higher Transmission
Kowa engineers have improved the unique optical coatings applied not only to the lenses but also the prism in the new Kowa TSN-88 PROMINAR spotting scope series. Th e result is a spotting scope that delivers even higher levels of light wavelength transmission than its predecessor and most important of all, across the entire color spectrum for the most natural color of nature.

88mm Pure Fluorite Crystal Objective Lens
The TSN-88 series features an 88mm pure fluorite crystal objective lens - the true optical powerhouse at the heart of all PROMINAR flagship optics. This unique lens redefines the standards of color brilliance and eliminates chromatic aberration for one of the most detailed views of the natural world.

Dual Focus, Pinpoint Control
The dual focus mechanism is the gateway to controlling the image between your eye and the scope. Exquisite engineering is refined to make operation flawless. Quick focus allows for fast action to bring your subject in to detail in just a few smooth revolutions, while the fine focus gives pinpoint, finger-tip control offering the ultimate in focusing accuracy.

Natural Color
When you use Kowa optics, you can trust that the colors you see are the true colors of nature. This creates an image free of chromatic aberration (color blur) and negative optical distractions, which enables you to fully immerse yourself into the scene in front of you.

Tough and Portable
The TSN-88 PROMINAR benefits from a 100% magnesium alloy structure, making it not only tougher but also lighter than its predecessor. A fully waterproof and nitrogen sealed shell plus an upgrade of Kowa KR coating applied to the objective lens which repels dirt, moisture and dust from building on the surface, makes the scope reassuringly rugged.

The King of Digiscoping
The TSN-88 PROMINAR retains its crown in the world of digiscoping, offering the photo enthusiast ultra long range telephoto photography options not possible in conventional photography. The improved coatings further enhance digiscoping performance even at the highest levels of magnification producing images that were once only achievable with high end DSLR systems.
