Kite Bino APC 18x50 ED Li-ion image stabilized

The image-stabilized APC 18x50 ED binoculars with integrated Li-Ion battery from Kite Optics provide you with an incredible observation experience.When observing wildlife with 18x magnification and a large 50 mm objective, it is generally advisable to use a device with a stabilizer if you do not want to resort to the cumbersome use of a tripod. It also compensates for the shaking of the hands that occurs after physical exertion, in cold weather, or after prolonged waiting at a hide. Kite Optics presents the image-stabilized binoculars APC 18x50 ED as one of the best devices currently available, especially for those who value a high magnification factor, for example, because they prefer to hunt in open areas.The StabilizerThe heart of the binoculars APC 18x50 ED is the second generation of the stabilizer developed by Kite, the KDGS-2 with its KT 3.0 processor. This achieves an enormous level of immersion. Image shake is reduced regardless of its cause, with a stabilization angle of 2°, which is significantly more than that of stabilizers from other brands.The ED OpticsThe optical ED/HD system delivers a high-contrast, sharp, and true-to-nature stabilized image without distortions. Chromatic aberration is reduced to an absolute minimum. The ED lenses are treated with the MHR Advance+ coating and ensure a light transmission of 86%. The field of view is 65 m at 1,000 m or 3.7°.The DeviceThe APC 18x50 ED binoculars impress not only with their optical performance but also with their durability, even in harsh conditions in the field. The instrument is waterproof up to 1 m according to IPX7 standards. The sensitive electronics are completely sealed, and a nitrogen gas filling protects the interior from fogging. Even if you use the binoculars in hot and humid regions, they remain fully functional. The operating temperature range is between -20 °C and 45 °C.The Internal Li-Ion BatteryWith the integrated Li-Ion battery, the worry about having charged batteries is a thing of the past. The battery is simply charged using the included USB Type-C cable. The APC is also lighter than the AA version thanks to the integrated battery. With the effective energy-saving mode of the APC binoculars, you have an operating time of 30 hours with average use. The device automatically goes into standby mode when not in use and is also automatically reactivated. For uninterrupted use, this mode can also be disabled.Scope of DeliveryAPC 18x50 ED Li-IonNeoprene neck strapCarrying case with strapProtective caps for eyepiece lensesProtective caps for objective lensesHand strapUSB-C charging cableManualTechnical SpecificationsType: image-stabilized binocularsMagnification: 18xObjective diameter: 50 mmOptical system: EDExit pupil: 2.77 mmMin. focusing distance: 5.5 mField of view: 65 m at 1,000 m / 3.7°Eye-side field of view: 61°Exit pupil distance: 15.5 mmInterpupillary distance: 76-57 mmTwilight factor: 30Light transmission: 86 %Angle performance control (APC)Stabilization correction angle: 2°Diopter adjustment: ±3Waterproof according to IPX7Gas-filledOperating temperature: -20 °C to 55 °COperating time on one charge: up to 30 hAutomatic standby: after 90 minBattery level indicatorBattery: Li-Ion, integrated, rechargeable via USB-CTripod threadDimensions (HxW): 210x150 mmWeight: 1,015 g
