FUJINON TECHNO-STABI 14X40
WATERPROOF STABILIZED BINOCULARS
Finally you can use high powered
binoculars even from a bouncing platform. With twice the power of standard
marine binoculars, the new 14x40 TECHNO-STABI makes every observation closer,
clearer and rock steady. Its unique DIS (Digital Image Stabilizing) system
lets you find and track targets while you’re heeled over or powering through
pounding seas—or on or off road—or in the air. With image stabilizing prisims
mounted in a dual gimbaled frame, controlled by piezo-electric sensors
and direct drive motors, you get instant and constant response; a unique
system that does away with the power hungry high-speed gyro.
The TECHNO-STABI is descended from
the Stabiscope which was the world’s first internally gyro-stabilized binocular,
and selected by NASA as standard equipment on space shuttle missions. It
delivers a full ±5° stabilization freedom unlike other stabilizing
binoculars which are not waterproof, and compensate only for hand tremor
(Canon). Naturally, you get 100% EBC multi-coated lenses and phase coated
prisms—a feature shared with Fujinon’s other highest priced binoculars.
