Features:

  • 22x Magnification - the new APC 22×50 delivers the highest power ever achieved in a stabilized binocular. Handheld 22x observation was once considered impossible — KITE OPTICS, pioneer in image stabilization, makes this a reality. At just one kilogram, the stabilized 22x magnification enhances your experience without compromise.

  • KDGS-2 Gimbal - In 2024, KITE OPTICS unveils the second generation of the KDGS, propelling KITE OPTICS’ image stabilization performance to an unprecedented level. A new era dawns once more.

  • KT 3.0 Processor & Software - With the APC 50, you experience an unparalleled sense of immersion, as if you were right in the middle of the scene. KT 3.0 creates an exceptionally natural viewing experience that seamlessly aligns with the way our eyes and brain perceive and process movement.

  • ED Optical System - Experience exceptional brightness and contrast thanks to the Extra-low Dispersion optical system of the APC 50 ED. The ED glass minimizes chromatic aberration and delivers exceptionally natural color reproduction. Combined with KITE's KT 3.0 image stabilization, the APC 50 ED brings even the finest details into razor-sharp focus.

  • Kite MHR Advance+ Coating - The APC binocular’s optical system, equipped with ED lenses and treated with KITE OPTICS’ MHR Advance+ coatings, achieves a remarkable 86% light transmission. Combined with ‘Enhanced Brightness Perception by Stability’ , this optical masterpiece excels in low-light conditions, delivering unparalleled clarity, vividness, and precision.

  • Wide Angle View - The APC 18×50, boasting an enormous 61° apparent field of view, complies with ISO standards for wide-angle view binoculars, solidifying its status as an authentic wide-field binocular. Step into a broader, more immersive world with the APC 18×50.

  • Engineered To Withstand - Engineered for resilience, the KITE APC 50 binoculars feature an IPX 7 waterproof rating, sealed electronics, and nitrogen gas filling. These binoculars can withstand submersion up to 1 meter and thrive in the most humid regions on Earth, delivering unmatched performance in challenging conditions.

  • APC: Automatic Power Control - What truly sets it apart is the ingenious APC mode. Your device seamlessly transitions into sleep mode when you’re not actively observing and springs to life when you need it, all without pressing a single button. Enjoy uninterrupted, hassle-free viewing at your fingertips.

  • Sustained Performance - Experience unrivaled endurance with the APC 50 binoculars, boasting an impressive battery life up to 38 hours. The APC mode extends its operation to cover an entire season on a single charge on average use. No need for buttons or worries.
