Why I am thrilled about Kite Optics and its founder, Georges de Putter
Sometimes in life, you meet people with whom you immediately connect, even though you are separated by hundreds of kilometres. That's what happened to me with Georges De Putter, the founder of Kite Optics in Belgium.
Our stories are surprisingly similar. We are the same age and both trained as opticians: he in Belgium and I in Germany. Over the years, our passion for precision optics and observing nature has become our profession and vocation.
While Georges has specialised, with Kite Optics, in developing high-quality binoculars and telescopes for nature lovers and ornithologists, I have created, with the Digiscoping-Shop, a place where people can find optical solutions that allow them to live their passion for nature observation and photography without limits.
Our philosophy is the same: quality instead of a disposable mindset.
But what unites us even more than our profession and our age is our philosophy: quality must remain affordable, and a good optical device is not a disposable item. In an age when many things are produced at the lowest possible cost and discarded at the first sign of wear and tear, Georges and I are committed to products that are durable, repairable, and satisfying for years to come.
Kite Optics lives by this philosophy: the devices are solidly built, the mechanics are reliable, and the image quality is impressive. If there is ever a problem, we offer a repair service instead of replacement. Unfortunately, this attitude is becoming less common nowadays, but for Georges and me it is second nature.
Why did I choose Kite Optics as my exclusive partner?
All the telescopes I offer are ones that I would use myself, and in fact I do. Kite telescopes are an excellent choice, especially for digiscoping: they impress with their high optical performance, robustness in the field and intuitive handling.
In summary:
If you are looking for a telescope that not only looks attractive but also delivers what it promises, can be repaired if necessary, and offers good value for money, don't miss out on Kite Optics telescopes.
I am convinced that you will enjoy them as much as I and many other nature lovers do.
Kind regards,
Ulrich Götz Roth
