The ultimate viewing experience
The enthusiasm behind KOWA's over 60 years of spotting scopes is manifested in these supreme models. The pure Fluorite crystal used is the optimum optical material for reducing chromatic aberration, providing the ultimate viewing experience. The extraordinary light gathering capability supports observation during dusk and dawn. All spotting scopes are waterproof to JIS protection class 7 and filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent the lens from fogging. JIS 7 = Japanese Industrial Standard / class 7 = Protected against the effects of temporary immersion in water. Quick and fine dual focus engineering makes operation a delight out in the field. The magnesium alloy body made by a sophisticated molding process called thixotrophic molding has the feel and strength of a traditional metal body with decreased weight when compared to other large-diameter scopes.

Fluorite Crystal Lenses
Fluorite crystal makes for the ideal lens material with "ultra-low dispersion" properties not possessed by an ordinary optical glass. This outstanding specification adds the featured benefit of a near-completely reduced chromatic aberration, or color blur, to provide users with the ultimate viewing experience.

Waterproof and Fogproof
The housing is waterproof to JIS Protection Class 7 and filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent internal fogging to ensure image clarity.

Dual Focus Mechanism
Kowa's well-developed focus system has progressed to a dual focus system with smooth movement at high magnifications for pinpoint accuracy in image display. The quick focus can easily shift from infinity to 5m in two revolutions with the large and maneuverable knob. The fine focus moves fluidly to create pinpoint accuracy and is extremely useful at high magnifications and with digiscoping systems.

Thixomolded Magnesium Alloy Body
The magnesium alloy body is constructed by a sophisticated process called thixotropic molding to give the strength and feel from a traditional metal body, but with much lighter weight. The rugged structure can tolerate the severest conditions and to the deliver the highest level of confidence and security.

Kowa's Eyepiece Locking Mechanism
Kowa's standard eyepiece bayonet mount includes a locking mechanism to prevent the eyepiece from getting lost or falling out unexpectedly.

Tripod Mounting Screw
A tripod mounting screw allows the scope to be safely secured to both 1/4 and 3/8 inch mount tripods.

 

Pin Point Control

The exquisite focus system has been refined to new levels of sensitivity providing a quick and fine dual focus system - easily operated by the touch of a finger, The quick focus, with a large and easy to turn knob, will focus from infinity to five meters in two revolutions. The fine focus, with smooth movements and pinpoint accuracy, is extremely useful at high magnifications and for digiscoping systems where pin point control of focus is required. Operation out in the field is sublime.
