The German optics specialist is
extending its binocular and spotting scope segment with two further
compact binoculars from the successful BV line. Waterproof, with
optional 8x or 10x magnification, the MINOX BV 8x25 and BV 10x25 are
compact binoculars designed for universal application. They are
particularly valuable companions when handy and lightweight baggage is
required – whether for traveling, sports, hunting or observing animals
and plants. Boasting an exceptional price/ performance ratio they are
also the perfect choice for those looking for a high-quality, yet still
affordable gift.
When it comes to technical
features, compact binoculars from MINOX rank in a class of their own!
Thanks to the modern optical system, the BV 8x25 and BV 10x25 guarantee
unadulterated viewing enjoyment with high image contrast and excellent
detail rendition. All glass/air surfaces feature a multi-layer coating
for maximum light transmission and stunning brilliance of the image
without interfering reflections.
The extremely sturdy aluminum
body ensures reliable functioning of all optical systems and precision
mechanics on the inside. An innovative sealing technology provides
protection against dust and water. The BV 8x25 and BV 10x25 withstand
moisture penetration up to a pressure of 0.3 bar or a comparable water
depth of three meters. This also makes them suitable for extreme wind
and weather conditions. Nitrogen filling of the binoculars ensures
permanent protection against corrosion and prevents fogging of the glass
surfaces on the inside, even with severe and sudden temperature
fluctuations.
With their extended eye relief,
the BV line of binoculars ideally meet the individual requirements of
people wearing eyeglasses, enabling them to enjoy the entire field of
view without vignetting. Twist-type extendible rubber eye cups for
setting the interpupilary distance are another convenient feature. The
central joint mechanism enables fast individual adjustment of the
distance between the objective lenses. The aluminum body has non-slip
rubber armoring giving these compact binoculars from MINOX a good and
safe hold at all times.
