Kite Optics APC Stabilized 14x50 ED Li-ion Binoculars
KITE OPTICS’ revolutionary KT3.0 image stabilization technology, theAPC 50 sets a new standard in observation excellence. Say goodbye to shaky images and hello to a stabilized view that mirrors the cognitive and visual patterns of the human mind. Whether you’re birdwatching, stargazing, or exploring the great outdoors, the APC 50 ensures you never miss a moment.
Built to withstand the harshest conditions, the APC 50 features an IPX 7 waterproof rating, sealed electronics, and nitrogen gas filling, guaranteeing performance even in the most challenging environments. From humid jungles to rugged mountains, these binoculars thrive where others falter.
Experience the future of observation with the second generation KDGS-2, elevating image stabilization performance to unprecedented levels. The KT 3.0 processor and software deliver an unmatched level of immersion, making the sensation of looking through binoculars vanish entirely.

2° Correction
The stabilization capacity of the APC 42 goes beyond the suppression of image vibrations caused by wind or hand trembling, allowing stable viewing from moving vehicles, boats, aircraft, and other unstable platforms.
Angle Power Control & Auto Shutoff
The KITE APC (angle power control) system puts the stabilizing electronics in sleep mode when the instrument is in rest position (hanging from the neck), and automatically activates the unit when you start observing again. This results in a huge increase in battery life and usage comfort. Regardless of its position, after 90 minutes the instrument will automatically switch off for energy saving.
Stabilized Roof Prism Design
Unlike bulky Porro-prism stabilized models, KITE APC binoculars feature roof prisms in a special gimbal suspension system (KDGS), where every moving and non-moving component is continuously assessed by an array of accelerometers. The movement of each component is dynamically adjusted by intelligent software, resulting in harmony and balance.
Fog & Waterproof
The APC 50 is IPX7-rated waterproof, able to withstand showers or immersion to 3.3′ for 30 minutes. The system is nitrogen gas filled to prevent internal fogging.
The APC 50 binoculars do away with disposable alkaline batteries in favor of a USB-C rechargeable lithium-ion battery.
