Swarovski ST Telescope Balance 14-35x50 green

Thanks to its image stabilizer, the Swarovski spotting scope ST Balance 14-35x50 in green and with straight view delivers brilliant images even without a tripod.Observing with the spotting scope previously required a certain effort: carrying a tripod, setting up the tripod, mounting the spotting scope…: that is now a thing of the past! Swarovski has integrated an optimally effective image stabilizer into the ST Balance 14-35x50 spotting scope, allowing for observations with steady and razor-sharp images handheld.

The Image Stabilizer
The necessary technology developed by Swarovski is called “Swarobalance.” It combines sensitive sensors with precise electronics and fine mechanics in the image stabilizer. Over 1,000 measurements per second continuously adjust the position of the lenses, ensuring that even at high magnifications, the image does not vibrate and remains stable. The image stabilizer can be activated at the push of a button and is then fully operational in just 2 seconds without needing to perform any setup. The time lost due to setting up the tripod is eliminated. The stabilizer is powered by a Li-Ion 1860 mAh-RB-S battery, which is included along with a suitable charger. After 5 minutes of inactivity, the stabilizer automatically enters standby mode, from which it is reactivated by movement. Thus, a full charge lasts for up to 12 hours of operation.

The Optics
The 50 mm lens of the ST Balance 14-35x50 ensures high light transmission, even in lower light conditions. The transmission value is 88%. The optical system employs the proven Swarovision technology. The images are color-accurate, rich in detail and contrast, and sharp to the very edges. The close focus range starts at just 3.4 m. For the slightly lower magnification compared to the AT model, you get an enormous field of view of 70-39 m at 1,000 m.

The Device
The ST Balance 14-35x50 is a spotting scope with a straight view, making it easy to use with one hand and more compact. It is designed in Swarovski green. Its housing is made of robust aluminum, effectively protecting the sensitive interior. When the image stabilizer is turned off, the optics automatically take on a locked position to protect them during transport. With dimensions of 268x91x80 cm with the eyecup lowered and a weight of only 1,300 g, the spotting scope can be easily carried even on longer trips.
