Fujifilm Fujinon TS-L 20X40 Techno-Stabiscope Binoculars

• Highest level of magnification in the “FUJINON TECHNO-STABI Series” with two models: 16x (TS-L 1640) and 20x (TS-L 2040). With these higher magnifications, scopes and tripods are not required, for bird watching on tidal flats and lakes from the distance, or for detailed observation and species identification.
• The image stabilization system with a correction angle of ±3° allows users to see athletes' and performers’ faces clearly during sports events or music concerts in large venues.
• These binoculars feature ED lenses (extra-low dispersion glass) to reduce axial chromatic aberration for long-distance subject observation.  Unlike standard optical lenses, ED lenses prevent fringing around subjects with their excellent performance even for distant observations, such as swans on a lake against a snowy background.

• Despite its large-diameter binoculars with 40mm objective lenses, they achieve a lightweight design at approximately 856g (TS-L 1640) and approximately 853g (TS-L 2040). 
• The design matches with the sophisticated and high-quality “X Series” mirrorless digital cameras. Carrying these binoculars alongside the camera goes well together. 
• A finely textured arc-shaped pattern at the bottom surface enhances one-handed operability with its firm grip. The overall design is smooth with minimal protrusions, making it easy to put in cases or bags. 
• Both a hand strap and a neck strap are included in the box. These accessories allow users to choose the best option for different situations. The hand strap can be attached to either the left or right side.

• The image stabilization can function continuously for 30 hours with two AAA batteries. Additionally, it features a 60-minute auto-off function for image stabilization to prevent battery drain from forgetting to turn off. The battery box is embedded on the right side, resulting in a smooth, protrusion-free design that does not interfere with handling.
• IPX7 water resistance rating ensures binoculars remain waterproof even when submerged up to 1 meter, for 30 minutes. This allows for confident use in a wide range of outdoor settings, such as at the sea, in rivers, or under bad weather conditions.
