Kowa's 88mm Prominar spotting scope takes image quality to the max by incorporating fluorite crystal lenses. With the enhanced resolution, color, and contrast, customers enjoy the ultimate viewing experience. An 88mm objective lens offers terrific light-gathering power for long distances and low light settings. Kowa engineers offset the length and weight associated with a large objective lens by incorporating an inner focus system and a magnesium alloy body. With the eyepiece locking mechanism, the eyepiece securely attaches to the body and reduces the risk of loss. The waterproof and fogproof body adds protection from rain and temperature fluctuations. Kowa offers a limited lifetime warranty for this scope.

Scope and eyepiece exceed expectations - 01/16/2011

by Tom from New Hampshire and Florida

I bought the scope and eyepiece for birdwatching. It truly exceeds my expectation. The images are sharp and clear. Even at high mag, the color is great. It is just fantastic.

I also bought the cover. It is fine as a carrying case, but cumbersome to use as a field cover on the tripod.

Kowa 883 Spotting Scope Review - 01/12/2011

by David from Huntington,WV

I've been very pleased with the Kowa 883 angled 88mm Prominar Scope.It's lightweight with superb viewing.Using the 20-60 Viewing eyepiece,the clarity is very sharp all the way up to 60 mm.It's superior to my Swarovski ST 80 which I formerly used.I would recommend it to anyone and the cost savings is in excess of $1000 compared to some of the other high scopes.

Kowa TSN 883 Angled 88mm Prominar Spotting Scope - 06/03/2010

by Bing Wong from Portland, Oregon

Optics are top notch. Clear edge to edge. Focusing is fast and precise with the two focusing knobs.

The angled scope makes it difficult to use with a window mount pan head. It's a tradeoff from ease of use on a tri-pod.

It's lightweight and short length is a big plus over other brands in this class.

KOWA TSN 883 - Excellent Quality - 03/28/2010

by Dr. J.B. Webb from Austin, TX

This is my 3d KOWA scope & I have enjoyed each model. I purchased all my KOWA scopes from Eagle Optics & am very satisfied with their customer care! I use the scope in monitoring/observing/digiscoping (birds & mammals) for the National Park Service & Texas Audubon Society. The KOWA 883 has great clarity & brilliance. The great staff @ Eagle Optics is extremely helpful in guidance RE camera adaptions for digiscoping! It's a joy to use!

When I'm out in the field digiscoping with my Kowa TSN-883/884 I know the contrast and detail will be on the money .
Yes it is a 5 STAR Digiscoping system!!!
