PROMINAR XD optics eliminate colour aberrations

The optical system comprises a total of four XD lenses, which form two pairs of lenses. This design significantly reduces chromatic aberration and improves image contrast, ensuring that subjects stand out clearly even in challenging lighting conditions.

A crisp, edge-to-edge image

The Schmidt prism design provides a wide angle of view and a sharp image right to the edges, with minimal light loss. The high-reflectivity roof prism, made from BaK4 and SK15 glass, reflects light almost perfectly, and, combined with Kowa’s multi-layer coatings, this results in a bright image with accurate colour reproduction.
