Kowa YF Series Porro Prism Binoculars
The Kowa YF Series Porro Prism Binoculars are a new range from the world-famous Japanese scope and binocular manufacturer. Kowa have infused over half a century of heritage in optics design and production into the new YF Series, which boasts top end features such as Kowa Repelling (KR) lens coatings and 100% waterproofing. The YF Series represents the perfect balance between retro design and modern functionality, with one of its most striking attributes being aesthetic beauty.Improved focusing
The YF Series has focussing at its core, and various enhancements have been made to the standard focus functions that are usually found on binocular models. For example, the central focus wheel has been substantially increased in both size and stiffness. Furthermore, a large dioptric adjustment ring has been conveniently positioned under the right eyepiece and purpose grooved to give users extra grip when operating. These improvements ensure that the binoculars can be precisely focused and tailored to a users individual preference to give a clear and crisp image.Where retro design meets modern thinking
The Kowa YF Series has a modern take on traditional thinking. Kowa have taken a heritage Porro prism optical configuration and enclosed it in a modern form, offering a unique and unrivalled user experience. Various modern features have been added, including thick rubber armour designed to protect the internal optics during more demanding use, as well as smooth-to-grainy body surface texture, giving users an optimal balance between comfort and grip. Also, unique to the YF Series, are the specially moulded soft contours which are designed to improve ergonomics, ensuring that the binoculars sit naturally in the hand during prolonged use.Stunning wide field of vision
Balancing the traditional Porro prism configuration (providing for a large distance between each objective lens) and a low power magnification (6x or 8x), the YF series boast an extremely wide viewing field (140m and 132m at 1000m for 6x and 8x respectively). This unique feature allows the user to observe a large field from one position providing a more pleasurable viewing experience.Kowa lenses
The internal optics are the backbone of any binocular on the market today, and it is an area that Kowa places in the highest regard. All optical components in the YF Series are manufactured from high quality Japanese eco-glass and all surfaces are fully multicoated. These coatings ensure that light transmission, colour definition, brightness and contrast are always performing at a maximum. The binoculars therefore produce clear, vivid and crisp images, creating natural and representative viewing subjects.The eyepieces and objective lenses are covered in Kowas unique formula: Kowa Repelling (KR) technology. The KR technology works to stop grease, fluid and dirt from accumulating on the surface of each treated lens, making cleaning much simpler. Furthermore, the KR technology reduces the risk of scratching a fragile lens surface, as less pressure needs to be applied to remove dirt during cleaning. This type of lens coating is a feature only usually found on far more expensive binocular models.
