Kowa enjoys a spectacular reputation of enduring quality
internationally, where there are large numbers of nature enthusiasts.
Their 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 TSN-82SV 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.
It makes for a great casual-use astronomical scope.
The 82SV 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 scopes
offer a more comfortable time of longer glassing, 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. Angled scopes do require a bit more
experience at locating the subject; if you're tall and equipped with a
tall tripod and primarily viewing alone, a straight viewing scope is
often preferred.
