The KITE Optics APC Stabilized 10×30 II is a compact pair of image-stabilised binoculars for birdwatching, nature and landscape observation, and travel. 10× magnification and 30 mm objectives provide a versatile configuration for daytime viewing. Reduced image shake makes it easier to identify plumage, follow animals and distinguish fine details during handheld observation.
Image stability is provided by the KDGS-1 system controlled by the KT 2.0 processor. APC (Angle Power Control) technology manages stabilisation according to the position of the binoculars: it reduces power consumption while they are being carried and restores operation when they are raised for observation. AAA batteries provide a runtime of up to 60 hours.
The optical system offers up to 93% light transmission, a 3 mm exit pupil and a field of view of 94 m at 1000 m (5.4°). A minimum focusing distance of 2.3 m also allows you to view subjects close to the observer. Adjustable twist-up eyecups, an interpupillary distance of 56–72 mm and ±3 dpt dioptre adjustment allow the binoculars to be tailored to the user.
The binoculars have an IPX7 waterproof construction and are gas filled. This model is made in Japan and covered by a 30-year manufacturer's warranty that also includes the electronics, subject to KITE Optics' warranty terms.
