Kowa Spotting Scope TSN-602 Standard Optics 60mm Straight Spotting Scope Review

I have a friend who is in the market for a Kowa spotting scope. Sounds simple right? …just send them down to the local store and buy one. Well, it's not that easy. There are so many to choose from and if you don't know what you are doing you could end up buying something that really doesn't do the job. So I decided to take it upon myself to do the research for him to find the best Kowa spotting scope on the market today and eventually came up with the Kowa TSN-602 Standard Optics 60mm Straight Spotting Scope. What To Look For When Buying a Kowa spotting scope It didn't take my long to realize that there are a few important things to keep in mind when buying a Kowa spotting scope.

These are:

  • weight
  • multi-coated optics
  • lens fogging
  • Waterproof
  • expandability

If you just buy the first spotting scope you see based on price alone then you are destined for trouble particularly if you are going to be using it on a regular basis. So stick with me here as I will be explaining each of these in relation to the Kowa TSN-602 Standard Optics 60mm Straight Spotting Scope

Multi Coated Optics:

Kowa's TSN-602 spotting scope is manufactured with the highest optical technology for the best-quality viewing experience. This scope's large, 60-millimeter diameter objective lens provides outstanding light gathering power, ensuring a bright field of view, while the sharp view and accurate color reproduction qualify the scope as a powerful instrument for observation at dawn or dusk. The TSN-602 features lenses, prisms, and even dust protection glass on the main body all built with multi-layered coatings, ensuring clear visual range and sharp images, as well as a sliding sunshade that eliminates annoying glare in bright conditions, as well as helping keep distracting raindrops from getting to the objective lens during wetter weather.

Fogging:

The lens is filled with nitrogen to prevent fogging during rain and dewy mornings so you always have a clear site to the target.

Weight:

Very light weight : body made of reinforced plastic, weighing only 720-735g.

Expandability :

Turns into an ultra telephoto lens by attaching the photo attachment and camera mount (each sold separately).Optional digital camera adapter also available.

How Much Should You Expect to Pay ?

The Kowa TSN-602 Standard Optics 60mm Straight Spotting Scope is available on the website for $510.00 but you really shouldn't be paying any more than $450.00 for this . The cheapest we have seen it is on Amazon who consistently sell this for under $425.00.
What's Included:

TSN-602 straight spotting scope, rotating tripod mount, an objective lens cover, an ocular lens cover, and warranty information.

Does it include a Warranty?

  • 1 year limited warranty

What Others Are Saying:

 

  • This has received rave reviews from most consumers on the net with an average of 4.5 out of 5 from most reviewers on Amazon and the website itself.
  • Here are some of the comments to date:
  • Great value for the price. Light and compact, perfect for birding by bike.
  • I have had a few spotting scopes this is my first Kowa and will never buy another brand.

Any complaints?
I found very few complaints for this on consumer sites around the internet. One consumer did suggest Kowa Spotting Scopes are sold in Body Only - eyepiece must be purchased separately.

Where Can You Buy the Kowa TSN-602 Standard Optics 60mm Straight Spotting Scope ?
You can buy this from Amazon. At the moment they include free shipping and from what I can tell when comparing prices with other online merchants, Amazon does currently have the best deal especially with the free shipping option.
