COLOR AS NATURE INTENDED When developing the new TSN-88 PROMINAR series, Kowa used its proven methods in optical design.

HIGHER TRANMISSION With the new TSN-88 PROMINAR spotting scope series, Kowa engineers have not only improved the unique optical coatings of the lenses, but also of the prisms. They have created a spotting scope that transmits even more light than its predecessor, especially across the entire color spectrum. The result is nothing less than the best possible reproduction of natural colors. 88MM PURE FLUORITE CRYSTAL LENS The new TSN-88 PROMINAR series is equipped with an 88mm pure fluorite crystal objective lens - the true optical powerhouse at the heart of all PROMINAR flagship optics. This unique lens sets new standards for color brilliance and eliminates chromatic aberration. This enables the most detailed view of the natural environment. ROBUST, LIGHT & TRANSPORTABLE The entire body of the new TSN-88 PROMINAR is now made of 100% magnesium alloy, making it not only more durable but also lighter than its predecessor. A completely waterproof and nitrogen-filled housing and the Kowa KR coating on the front lens, which repels dirt, moisture and dust from the surface, make the spotting scope reassuringly resistant to external influences. DUAL FOCUS - EXTREMELY PRECISE FOCUSING The dual focus mechanism ensures the best possible control when focusing. The extremely finely tuned technology ensures smooth operation of the focusing wheels. Fast focusing allows you to work quickly to bring your subject into focus with just a few smooth turns, while fine focusing enables pinpoint control with your fingertips for the ultimate in focusing accuracy.
