Amazon.com Product Description
The Kowa TSN-883 Prominar ED 88 millimeter Angled Spotting Scope is created using Kowa's most advanced optical technology. This high-performance spotting scope is built with a rugged construction and high-end specifications that make it the perfect instrument of every bird watcher, hunter, or target shooter.

Kowa's TSN-883 spotting scope is manufactured with the highest optical technology for the best-quality viewing experience, including the utilization of high-end Prominar (Apochromat) ED (extra-low dispersion), fluorite crystal lenses that eliminate color blur (chromatic aberration) for improved resolution and contrast. This scope's large, 88-millimeter diameter objective lens provides outstanding light gathering power, ensuring a bright field of view, while the sharp view and accurate color reproduction qualify the scope as a powerful instrument for observation at dawn or dusk. The TSN-883 features lenses, prisms, and even dust protection glass on the main body all built with C3, highly-reflective, multi-layered coatings of dielectrics, ensuring clear visual range and sharp images, as well as a sliding sunshade that eliminates annoying glare in bright conditions, as well as helping keep distracting raindrops from getting to the objective lens during wetter weather.

The extremely durable housing of the Kowa TSN-883 is constructed of strong, yet lightweight polycarbonate materials, including carbon fiber, providing a rigid structure that can endure hard usage, and has a shape and rubberized coating that is designed for ease of handling and ergonomic fit in the hand. This housing is also waterproof to JIS class 7 protection standards, and filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent the lens from fogging, which allows this spotting scope to be used in the rain and other harsh weather conditions. At the same time, this scope features an eye piece set at an angle, for the ultimate in comfort during long-term observation, especially amongst users of variable heights or those who are viewing high-up objects from lower-down positions like when bird watching or checking out the moon. This Kowa scope comes with the option of several eyepieces, which are sold separately, to fit most any spotting need or preference, and which are easy to set up, requiring you to simply push in the eyepieces, and then pull them out again for detachment. The TSN-883 spotting scope weighs 53.6 ounces, measures 13.5 inches in length, and is backed by an astounding manufacturer's lifetime of the product warranty.

I have read great reviews about this item and interested to buy one. The picture as shown here is an older model scope. Also, what does ED stand for?
