Product details

Kowa's absolute flagship model in the ultra-compact binocular range features legendary Kowa XD optics. The compact model from the GENESIS PROMINAR series has a 22 mm objective lens diameter and is equipped with two high-quality XD lenses from Kowa. This high-resolution ED glass contains large amounts of fluorite crystal, currently the best available material for minimizing chromatic aberration and enhancing contrast, resulting in a breathtaking view of nature. Kowa's lens coating technology, developed over decades, improves the light transmission properties of all lenses, and Kowa's unique KR coating repels dirt and moisture. Experience razor-sharp images with natural colors, high contrast, and stunning details that are virtually free from chromatic aberrations. The ergonomic housing design, combined with a high-quality rubber armor, makes using a GENESIS PROMINAR binocular a pleasure. GENESIS PROMINAR binoculars are fully waterproof and nitrogen-filled to prevent internal fogging. The robust armor makes the GENESIS PROMINAR an extremely durable and reliable binocular that guarantees top performance even in the toughest environments.
