Rated 4 out of 5

Excellent optics at any price

I have been using these for about a year now for a variety of hunting tasks and have found them to be just as good as anything by Leupold, Swarovski and Leica. I like the rubberized coating. The lenses are crisp and clear, even in the early morning and late evening when lighting conditions aren't perfect. They allow me to see deer and smaller game such as turkey with great clarity. I have recommended these to friends many times and find them to be the best bang for the buck in the 10x42 binocular category. Don't hesitate!

• Recognizing trends and responding to these with innovative products this is a field in which MINOX excels. In a new line of field glasses the optics specialists from Wetzlar have now brought out two all-round binoculars of the 42 class, which, in spite of their exceptional performance data, are extreme lightweights. The MINOX BD 8x42 BL and BD 10x42 BL are two perfect companions for the price and weight-conscious outdoor enthusiast who does not want to compromise when it comes to optical quality.

• The L for Light in the binocular name is based on the robust body of polycarbonate. With its rubber armouring and ergonomic design this optical masterpiece lies steady and sure in the observer's hand, thanks to its low weight. And it is virtually indestructible a new generation in MINOX sport optics. In addition to this, the 8x42 BL and the 10x42 BL are watertight to a depth of five meters as a result of the sophisticated sealing technology developed by MINOX engineers

• The new developed optical systems with high light-gathering power have multicoated lens elements which guarantee highest optical performance and natural color rendition of the object in view. Thanks to the roof prisms with phase-correction coating the user is able to enjoy an image with exceptionally high detail rendition and excellent contrast, even when light conditions are bad. An argon filling inside the binoculars prevents fogging of the glass surfaces, even with extreme temperature fluctuati ons.

• MINOX has also taken the specific needs of people wearing glasses into account. With the extended eye relief the entire field of view can be enjoyed without vignetting, even for those wearing glasses. Rotating rubber eyecups which can be individually adjusted are additional convenient features.
