Product Information

Overview

Kite Optics APC Image Stabilized Binoculars feature the Kite APC system, which puts the stabilizing electronics in sleep mode when the instrument is in rest (hanging from the neck) and automatically activates when you start observing again, resulting in a significant increase in battery life. The 2° correction angle eliminates image vibration for steady viewing. Ideal for marine applications, boating, sporting, defense, birdwatching, astronomy, and other sectors, they bring the smallest detail, far or near, into sharp focus.

Features

Kite APC & Auto Shutoff

The Kite APC system puts the stabilizing electronics in sleep mode when the instrument is at rest (hanging from the neck) and automatically activates when you start observing again, resulting in a significant increase in battery life.

Image Stabilization

The Kite APC offers 2-3° angle correction with no lag or wave effect, for a stable image even from unstable or moving surfaces

Waterproof & Fogproof

The APC is IPX7-rated waterproof, able to withstand showers or immersion to 3.3' for 30 minutes. The system is nitrogen gas-filled to prevent internal fogging.

Spare Batteries Onboard

The optic runs up to 60 hours on two AA batteries and has a second battery box onboard when the first set is depleted.
