Swarovski TLS APO 49332 23mm
The apochromatic 23mm prime design with a T2 mount and micro-four-thirds coverage delivers color-fringe-free imaging when attached to an ATX/STX spotting scope. At just 54 grams, it adds negligible weight while the Apochromatic configuration maintains high contrast across the frame for seamless digiscoping. This lens is best for birders and wildlife observers who want to capture sharp photos directly through their Swarovski scope system.
