Kowa TSN-82SV 82mm Angled Spotting Scope - TSN-82SV

Kowa Spotting Scopes enjoys a spectacular reputation of enduring quality internationally, where there are large numbers of nature enthusiasts. The Kowa TSN-82SV Spotting Scope is the modern iteration of Kowa's TSN-821M scope, which endured for well over a decade as their premium design. The 82SV's a great choice if you want the very best in optics from a respected Japanese company without forking over an arm and a leg to get it.

The Kowa TSN-82SV Spotting Scope was created using advanced optical technology and the best of materials known. Its 82mm objective lens gathers gobs of light, ensuring a bright field of view in nearly any practical nature viewing. A Kowa Spotting Scope makes for a great casual-use astronomical scope.

The Kowa TSN-82SV Spotting Scope is offered exclusively as an angled viewing design. While it isn't a matter entirely settled until you experience the differences for yourself, it is nearly a universal belief that the angled Kowa spotting scopes offer more comfort during long observing sessions, and are unequivocally easier to share amongst a group of observers. You can also get away with a shorter tripod using the angled scope, perhaps shaving precious ounces off your pack weight.
