The Kowa TSN-55S Prominar is the straight version of Kowa's 55mm travel scope. It comes with a 17-40x zoom eyepiece and weighs 960g, so it is easy to carry on long walks and trips abroad.
The 55mm objective is fluorite crystal, which keeps colour fringing very low. The supplied 17-40x zoom eyepiece is designed for this scope.
The body is waterproof and nitrogen filled, and at under a kilo it fits in a daypack or carry-on bag.
A straight scope points where you look, so it is quicker to find a bird, easier to use from a car window or a hide, and simpler for beginners.
The TSN-55S has a 55mm objective, a close focus of 2.8m and a 58mm filter thread. The body weighs 960g.
If this isn't quite right, the TSN-55A is the angled version; the TSN-66 kit gives a 66mm objective and 25-60x zoom.
