Step into nature and enjoy the freedom of mobility with the newest addition to Kowa's Prominar series. The Kowa Spotting Scope TSN-66S Prominar delivers the same high-quality fluorite crystal lenses and coatings as the iconic TSN-88S, but in a compact size. This spotting scope guarantees greatly improved light transmission and offers an incredibly natural color rendition across the entire spectrum. Designed for easy transport thanks to its sturdy 100% magnesium alloy body, which is also waterproof and nitrogen-filled, the TSN-66S is a rugged and reliable tool for every nature lover.
The refined design of the TSN-66S features a pure fluorite crystal objective paired with a Kowa XD lens. This advanced combination provides superior performance even in low-light conditions, eliminating almost all chromatic aberration, even at high magnifications. The dual focusing mechanism lets you capture razor-sharp images. With just a few simple twists, you focus quickly and accurately—perfect for digiscoping.
You’re now looking at the Kowa TSN-66S Prominar, but make sure to add an eyepiece. Choose between the Kowa TE11WZ II with variable magnification from 25-60x or the TE-80XW with a fixed 35x magnification and an impressive 80° wide angle. Ideal for those who want to digiscope thanks to its broad field of view. Both eyepieces come with a twist-up rubber eyecup, adjustable for eyeglass wearers and those without glasses, offering a comfortable viewing experience. Check the specifications below for the TSN-66S combined with these eyepieces. If you want to buy the TSN-66S with a TE-11WZ II eyepiece, you’ll find the kit among the optional accessories.
Chromatic aberration occurs due to light dispersion and varying wavelengths converging at different points, causing colored edges around subjects. The ideal material to minimize chromatic aberration is fluorite crystal. For the convex lens of the TSN-66A/66S, a low-dispersion fluorite crystal is used. This combination, unlike regular glass lenses, further reduces chromatic aberration and sets new standards for color accuracy.
