Colour, the way nature intended
There is no greater example of colour than that of the natural world. A vibrancy when witnessed that can stir our emotions and
make us feel alive.
Seeing nature represented true to life can be one of the most engaging experiences we can ever hope to enjoy. For decades, it has been the passion, drive and goal of PROMINAR optical engineers to always deliver this natural spectacle to the observer in glorious detail through our optics.
The result is a spotting scope that delivers even higher levels of light wavelength transmission than its predecessor and most
important of all, across the entire colour spectrum.
Pure fluorite crystal lens
This unique fluorite crystal convex lens, only found in PROMINAR spotting scopes, when combined with a concave lens featuring our newly developed optical coatings, redefines the standards of colour brilliance.
This special combination not only eliminates chromatic aberration which is one of the major causes of deterioration of viewing quality, but also increases resolution, contrast and low light performance even at the highest levels of magnifications.
Chromatic aberration occurs due to the dispersion of light and the different wavelengths of light focusing on different positions, resulting in a red or purple fringing around the image.
Aligning these light wavelengths in to one focal point is critical. The optimum optical material to do the job and minimize
chromatic aberration is fluorite crystal.
Small changes that make a big difference
A new dual tripod mounting system allows you to connect the scope to a tripod mounting plate using two securing screws. This subtle change can be a game changer when spending endless hours out in the field. No more having to re-adjust or tighten your scope to the tripod. Ultimate security, stability and mobility all day long.
The aluminium barrel formerly used on the TSN-880 series has now been upgraded meaning the new TSN-88 PROMINAR benefits from a full 100% magnesium alloy body. This sophisticated alloy offers all the strength benefits of metal whilst retaining a lightweight body.
