It is ideal for birdwatching and observing other aspects of nature, as well as for digiscoping, where colour reproduction and detail are of the utmost importance.

The optical coating has been applied not only to the lenses but also to the prism, which improves light transmission and makes the colour reproduction broader and more true-to-life than in the previous model. For example, more shades are now visible in the dark plumage of a bird than before.<\/p>\n<h4>Protected front lens and durable frame<\/h4>\n<p>The 95 mm filter thread integrated into the body eliminates the gap between the front lens and the filter, which reduces the amount of dirt reaching the lens and prevents reflections. Kowa\u2019s KR coating repels dirt, moisture and dust. The barrel is made entirely from a magnesium alloy, making the lens lighter and more durable than the previous TSN-880, and its design is based on the ergonomics of the TSN-99 series.<\/p>\n<h4>Dual focus and an extensive range of accessories<\/h4>\n<p>In the dual-focus system, the quick-focus mechanism locates the subject in just a few turns, whilst the fine-focus mechanism fine-tunes the sharpness with fingertip precision. The accessory collar and bayonet mount are fully compatible with Kowa System accessories, such as the 25\u201360x TE-11WZ II and 35x TE-80XW eyepieces, the EX-16 1.6x extender and digiscoping adapters. The earlier TSN-880 and TSN-770 eyepieces are also compatible, and with an astronomical eyepiece, the scope can also be used for stargazing.<\/p>\n<h2>Main features<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Full fluorite crystal optics reproduce colours vividly without any colour aberrations.<\/li>\n<li>Prisma\u2019s optical coating improves light transmission and the clarity of detail.<\/li>\n<li>The magnesium alloy frame makes the bike one of the smallest and lightest in its class.<\/li>\n<li>A filter thread integrated into the body protects the front lens from dust, dirt and grease.<\/li>\n<li>The KR coating on the front lens repels moisture and dirt in outdoor conditions.<\/li>\n<li>Quick focus and fine focus enable fast and precise focusing.<\/li>\n<li>Two tripod mounts make it easier to balance the tube on the tripod.<\/li>\n<li>Eyepieces, extensions and digiscoping adapters are selected from Kowa\u2019s S-accessory system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Technical specifications<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Front lens diameter: 88 mm<\/li>\n<li>Front lens material: pure fluorite crystal<\/li>\n<li>Viewing angle: straight on<\/li>\n<li>Filter thread: 95 mm<\/li>\n<li>Body material: 100 % magnesium alloy<\/li>\n<li>Weather resistance: 100 % waterproof, nitrogen-filled<\/li>\n<li>Stand mounts: 2<\/li>\n<li>Compatible eyepieces: Kowa Prominar, TSN-880\/-770<\/li>\n<li>Compatible extension: EX-16 1.6x<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can find more Kowa optics <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fotomonza.com\/tuotemerkki\/kowa\/\">From the KOWA brand page<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kowa TSN-88S Prominar is a straight nature spotting scope featuring an 88 mm fluorite crystal front lens and a lightweight magnesium alloy body.
