Uncompromising comfort and performance
The two models MINOX BL 8x52 and BL 10x52 introduced by the optics specialists from Wetzlar, complement the BL series of exceptionally lightweight, yet powerful binoculars with comfort bridge. The compact design and ergonomic features of these two models excel from dawn to dusk and even on into the moonlit night. The comfort bridge guarantees convenient handling and an excellent grip – even in extreme situations. The open bridge enables a reliable, single-handed operation that allows more freedom to move when out hunting or observing nature.
The letter L in the name stands for “lightweight”, ensured by the sturdy, polycabonate rubber-armored body and er
gonomic features. Thanks to a sophisticated sealing technology, the BL binoculars are also watertight to a depth of up to five meters. A nitrogen gas filling prevents fogging of the optical surfaces, even under severe temperature fluctuations.
The powerful light-gathering optical systems feature multi-coated lens elements that guarantee the best optical performance and neutral color rendition of the object in view. Thanks to the roof prisms with phase correction coating, the user benefits from an image with exceptionally high detail rendition and pin-sharp contrast, even in low light conditions.
And the specific requirements of those wearing spectacles are also accounted for. With the extended eye relief, the entire field of view can be enjoyed without vignetting, even if the user is wearing glasses. Twisting retractable rubber eyecups with individual click stops are another convenient feature.
The scope of delivery of the MINOX BL 8x52 with comfort bridge includes a nylon strap as well as an ever-ready case.
