  • Kowa TSN-PA8 Digiscoping Photo Adapter for TSN-660/600 and TSN-82SV

    The Kowa TSN-PA8 Digiscoping Photo Adapter gives a direct connection to the spotting scope for SLR or heavy system cameras to Kowa's TSN-660, TSN-600, and TSN-82SV spotting scopes.

    A Stable Platform for Kowa TSN-660, TSN-600 & TSN-82SV Scopes

    This adapter is engineered to provide maximum stability for digiscoping with heavier camera bodies. Kowa says the direct connection to the spotting scope gives you maximum stability. The design includes cut-outs, allowing you to retain full access and control of your zoom eyepiece while the camera is attached.

    T2-Threaded Design with Integrated Sensor Protection

    Due to its T2 connection, Kowa says the TSN-PA8 can be combined with all camera bayonets. To complete the connection, you will need a camera-specific T2 ring (sold separately) that matches your camera's bayonet mount. Its protective glass keeps the camera sensor clean.

  • What Kowa spotting scopes is the TSN-PA8 compatible with?

    Kowa lists the Kowa TSN-PA8 for the Kowa TSN-660 Series, TSN-600 Series and TSN-82SV spotting scopes. For the TSN-99/88/77/66 PROMINAR series, Kowa offers the TSN-PA7.

    What else do I need to connect my camera to the Kowa TSN-PA8?

    To attach your camera, you will need a T2 ring specific to your camera's mount. Kowa makes TSN-CM2 T2 rings for Canon EF, Nikon F, Pentax K, Sony E and Micro Four Thirds. T2 rings are sold separately.

    Will the Kowa TSN-PA8 work with my TSN-99 PROMINAR scope?

    No. Kowa lists the TSN-PA8 for the TSN-660/600 series and the TSN-82SV. For the TSN-99/88/77/66 PROMINAR series, Kowa offers the TSN-PA7.

    Can I still use the zoom function of my eyepiece with the TSN-PA8 attached?

    Yes. The Kowa TSN-PA8 is designed with cut-outs that provide full access to the zoom control ring on compatible Kowa eyepieces, allowing you to change magnification without removing the adapter or camera.

    Why does the Kowa TSN-PA8 have protective glass?

    The protective glass keeps the camera sensor clean.

    Is the Kowa TSN-PA8 suitable for a small point-and-shoot camera?

    No. Kowa describes the TSN-PA8 as an adapter for SLR or heavy system cameras, connected through a T2 ring. For lightweight system cameras, Kowa offers the TSN-DA20.

    Is the TSN-PA8 suitable for a heavy SLR camera?

    Kowa describes the TSN-PA8 as an adapter for SLR or heavy system cameras, with a direct connection to the spotting scope for maximum stability. Kowa does not publish a load rating.
