The Swarovski ST Balance 14-35x50 rethinks the traditional use of a spotting scope by directly integrating an image stabilization system. SWAROBALANCE technology detects movements and adjusts the position of an optical element in real time to maintain a stable image. This allows you to enjoy high magnification handheld, without systematically relying on a tripod.
Its 14x to 35x zoom offers excellent versatility for birdwatching and wildlife observation. At low magnification, its field of view reaches 70 m at 1,000 m (210 ft at 1,000 yards) to make locating subjects easier, while the 35x magnification allows you to examine distant subjects much more precisely. Its 50 mm objective lens helps keep the overall design compact and portable.
The ST Balance's right-eye view allows you to naturally point the spotting scope at the subject and makes it easier to track moving animals. Weighing approximately 1,300 g, it can be used directly handheld when mobility is a priority, while remaining compatible with a tripod for prolonged observations. It can also be paired with the VPA 2 phone adapter to take stabilized photos and videos.
