With advanced Shake-Free Image Stabilisation, the AT/ST Balance keeps your view perfectly stable - even at high magnification or in challenging conditions. At the heart of the AT/ST Balance lies SWAROVSKI OPTIK's renowned optical excellence.

Instant Clarity.  Immediate Action

Nature doesn’t wait - and neither should you. The AT/ST Balance delivers sharp, stabilised images the moment you raise it, without the need for setup or adjustment.

True Handheld Freedom - Lightweight Control

No tripod. No extra weight. No restrictions. The AT/ST Balance is designed for effortless handheld use – giving you the freedom to move, react, and stay in the moment without compromising stability or image quality

Uncompromising Image Definition

Field flattener lenses deliver an almost flat, completely distortion-free image – right up to the edges.

Ultimate Optical Performance

Pin-sharp contours, high-contrast and true-to-life images: you can make out every single detail for quick and easy identification.

Maximum Colour Fidelitiy

Innovative lens coatings provide excellent color rendering with high light transmission.

Swarobalance No Shake. No Doubt. No Hesitation

The precise alignment of sensors, motors, and optical as well as mechanical components ensures an extremely natural and comfortable viewing experience – even in motion. More than one thousand measurements per second continuously adjust the lens position, compensating instantly for even the slightest hand movements. The result is image stabilisation with exceptionally low latency, delivering a steady, clear view without distracting after-effects. SWAROBALANCE defines new standards in observation quality.

The Stabilisation System

The AT/ST Balance spotting scopes have a moving lens that is adjusted by an electric motor (voice coil motor) to offset movements. These motors work particularly quickly, very precisely, and with low friction – the pushing and pulling movements are smooth and continuous. They are also used in applications such as camera autofocus systems. The integrated gyroscope sensor measures the current movement of the spotting scope. Based on this, a calculation is made to determine which lens movement is necessary to compensate for the motion to result in a stable image. With the stabilisation concept of the AT/ST Balance also in movement there is no perceptible “floating” or “after-image”, which is key to the unique natural sense of vision. Automatic locking of the moving lens in the event of a fall or a sudden interruption in the power supply protects the lens while also ensuring the best optical quality by keeping the lens in the central position.

Battery

The battery life is approximately 12 hours in constant use (varies depending on the temperature conditions) and is sufficient for more than a full day out in the field. To save energy, the AT/ST Balance switches to an automatic time-out mode after 5 minutes in an idle state. Tilting the device slightly (e.g. focusing) reactivates it again. Additional batteries as replacements in the field are available as accessories.

Photography

There is no mechanical connection option for the TLS APO. Great photographic results can be achieved using the VPA 2 variable phone adapter in combination with a high-quality smartphone camera.
