When designing the new TSN 88 Prominar series, Kowa returned to its roots in optical design. Paths that have made Kowa one of the most popular spotting scope manufacturers in the world. To improve a fundamental characteristic that Prominar users appreciate every time they look through their eyepiece – natural color.
Kowa has always been proud to produce optics that deliver a pure rendition of the scene in front of the lens. The observer can thus explore and appreciate every detail of the subject. An image free of negative optical distractions allows you to immerse yourself in the scene unfolding before you.
Kowa engineers have improved the optical coatings applied not only to the lenses but also to the prism of the new Kowa TSN 88 Prominar spotting scope series. The result is a spotting scope that offers even higher wavelength transmission levels than its predecessor and, more importantly, across the full color spectrum for the most natural colors in nature.
OBJECTIVE IN PURE FLUORITE CRYSTAL 88 MM
The new TSN 88 series features an 88 mm pure fluorite crystal objective – the true optical power at the heart of all Prominar flagship optics. This unique objective redefines standards of color brilliance and eliminates chromatic aberration for the most detailed view of the natural world.
THE ULTIMATE VISUAL EXPERIENCE: PURE FLUORITE CRYSTAL
Fluorite crystal offers the best visual experience available today, virtually eliminating all chromatic aberrations and providing images of exceptional resolution and contrast.
Fluorite is much more difficult to work with than optical glass and requires very advanced processing technology.
Kowa has focused on care, time and technique to produce the ultimate visual experience with a pure fluorite crystal lens. That is what makes Kowa unique.
DOUBLE FOCUS KNOB
The dual focus knob mechanism allows precise image control. The rapid focus provides quick action to bring out the details of your subject in a few turns, while the fine focus provides fingertip precision for unparalleled focusing accuracy.
ROBUST, LIGHTWEIGHT AND PORTABLE
The TSN 88 Prominar now benefits from a 100% magnesium alloy structure, making it not only more robust but also lighter than its predecessor. A fully waterproof, nitrogen-sealed housing, together with an improved Kowa KR coating applied to the objective lens that prevents dirt, moisture and dust from accumulating on the surface, give the scope reassuring robustness.
APPEARANCE IS NOT EVERYTHING, BUT...
The TSN 88 Prominar adopts the new ergonomic curves and shapes created for the recent TSN 99 Prominar spotting scope series. There is no doubt, this spotting scope is PROMINAR. A classic green with a new elegant, enhanced style and a comfortable shape designed to give the user the best experience and handling in the field.
STILL THE QUEEN OF DIGISCOPING
The TSN 88 Prominar retains its crown in the world of digiscoping, offering photography enthusiasts long-range telephoto photography options that are not possible with conventional photography. The improved coatings further enhance digiscoping performance, even at the highest magnifications, producing images that were previously achievable only with high-end DSLR systems. Kowa offers an enviable range of dedicated and universal smartphone adapters that make it easy to connect most smartphone models to the TSN 88 Prominar. Capture detailed, high-magnification photos and videos of the natural world using your smartphone.
DOUBLE TRIPOD MOUNT
A new double tripod mounting system prevents the scope from sliding or rotating on the tripod foot, ensuring increased stability during long periods of use. This system is a game-changer for convenience and handling in the field.
SIGHT
The spotting scope includes a new detachable sight that can be mounted to the accessory collar to help locate the subject more quickly. The sunshade also features a new integrated sight that provides an additional visual aid.
KOWA SYSTEM - AN ACCESSORY COLLAR: ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES
This threaded collar allows connection of a wide range of accessories to expand the functionality of the TSN 88 Prominar pure fluorite crystal spotting scope, creating a multi-purpose optic for observation, long-range, digiscoping, smartphone applications and astronomy.
