Unlike conventional optical glass, fluorite virtually eliminates chromatic aberration, the color fringing that can soften high-contrast edges. This results in breathtaking color fidelity and resolution, allowing you to discern the most subtle plumage details on a bird or the finest textures in a distant landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n          \u003cp\u003eKowa pairs the fluorite element with an XD concave lens and has improved the optical coatings applied not only to the lenses but also to the prism. The result is higher light transmission than the previous model across the entire color spectrum for natural color, which helps in the low light of dawn or dusk.

Vanguard VEO 5 264CV14 carbon fiber tripod that Kowa matches to its larger PROMINAR scopes. Its fluorite objective virtually eliminates chromatic aberration, resolving subjects with true-to-life color and exceptional detail from its 5m minimum focus distance to infinity.

This exotic material has dispersion characteristics that optical glass cannot match, virtually eliminating chromatic aberration (color fringing). The result is breathtaking contrast and color fidelity, rendering subjects with a clarity and accuracy that makes them appear as if seen with the naked eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKowa pairs the fluorite element with an XD concave lens and has improved the optical coatings applied not only to the lenses but also to the prism.

For moving parts like the focus wheels and sunshade, use a soft brush to clear away any debris. After use in damp or coastal environments, it is critical to thoroughly clean and dry the scope at room temperature before storage, since storing it uncleaned can lead to stains and mold.

Unlike optical glass, fluorite has exceptionally low dispersion characteristics that virtually eliminate chromatic aberration, or color fringing. This ensures that colors remain true and details stay sharp, even at the highest 60x magnification and on high-contrast subjects like birds against a bright sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eKowa pairs the fluorite element with an XD concave lens and has improved the optical coatings applied not only to the lenses but also to the prism. The result is higher light transmission than the previous model across the entire color spectrum, which helps in the low light of dawn and dusk. The objective lens is further protected by an upgraded Kowa KR coating, which repels dirt, moisture and dust from building on the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section-img\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/5280\/1565\/files\/kowa-88-dual-focus.jpg\" alt=\"Kowa TSN-88 PROMINAR dual focus wheel\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section-text\"\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eRugged Mechanics: Magnesium Alloy Body and Dual-Speed Focus\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe TSN-88S is built for a lifetime of use in the field.
