The Kowa 8×42 SV binoculars for bird watching with 8x magnification are a combination of top-notch materials, thoughtful design, excellent optics and ergonomics. The whole is extremely consistent and additionally pleasant to the eye.
The SV series of ornithological binoculars from Japanese manufacturer Kowa, is a hybrid of functionality, durability and good design. Excellent image reproduction is made possible by the use of special "eco glass" with a multi-layer surface. What is important, the coatings ensure high light transmission, which guarantees an excellent image quality with full reproduction of colors and shapes.
The Kowa SV series of binoculars use the Porro roof prism system, which achieves a wide field of view with smaller glass dimensions. The optics have been coated with KR (Kowa Repelling) coatings for excellent reproduction of the real image.
In the SV series the manufacturer focused on functionality. Focusing is available from the right eyepiece, at your fingertips.
Lets talk a lot about functionality. The manufacturer has also focused on the visual aspect. The binoculars sit well in your hand thanks to a special coating. The low number of nooks and crannies makes it easy to clean the binoculars, and they form a single, coherent whole.
The 8x magnification is a big advantage, giving you plenty of scope for a closer look.
The SV series is completely waterproof, which makes them much more suitable than cheap supermarket binoculars. Extreme weather conditions are not a threat to them.
