Kowa 770 Series 77mm Straight Spotting Scope - Body Only
Kowa

Superior performance in a compact body.
The performance and compactness of the Kowa TSN-774 Series 77mm Straight Spotting Scopes are second to no other scopes in this class. The housing is waterproof to JIS protection class 7 and filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent the lens from foggingThe PROMINAR models TSN-773/774 use an XD objective lens with low dispersion properties to diminish chromatic aberration. The well established Kowa focus system has progressed to a new dual focus system. 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.
When an XD lens (eXtra-low-Dispersion-lens) is paired with a concave lens with special dispersion properties, chromatic aberration is almost eliminated. The performance of spotting scopes with XD lenses is very close to that of our flagship models with fluorite crystal.
For digiscopers, you'll be happy to know that the Kowa Prominar Series includes a full series of optional camera adapters to mount a single-reflex lens (DSLR).
Please note that this listing is for the spotting scope body only. Make sure to add an appropriate eyepiece for your use from the Eyepiece Guide below.
