More about the series BL...
Two true giants of light complement the successful MINOX BL binocular line. As perfect companions for wildlife and nature observation in moonlight or dawn, they are lightweight, uncompromising in optical quality and attractively priced. Despite their extreme twilight performance, the MINOX BL 56 binoculars weigh just over 1,000 grams each.
The MINOX BL series features a particularly lightweight design made possible by the use of new and innovative materials. Despite their extreme twilight performance, the Minox 56 binoculars weigh just over 1,000 grams each. The outstanding optical and mechanical design of the lightweight and light-intensive BL Klassik series has been further improved, setting new standards in this class. The innovative M* multi-layer coating optimises the light transmission and colour rendering of the binoculars. Up to 21 layers are applied to the glass surfaces to prevent light loss due to reflections. A coating just a few nanometres thick is vaporised onto all glass/air surfaces in a high-vacuum process, ensuring outstanding colour fidelity and maximum optical light transmission for greater detail – especially in difficult lighting conditions.
The roof prisms with phase correction coating provide the viewer with an image that is exceptionally detailed and high-contrast at all times.
The exterior design of the BL 56 binoculars has been modernised and brought into line with the BL binoculars with comfort bridge. The new metal focusing knob with fine rubber ribs is pleasantly smooth and quick to operate and is equipped with a tactile mark for infinity adjustment. This allows the observer to quickly focus on the game even in twilight by feeling for the current focus setting. With your forearms supported, even the BL 15x56 with its 15x magnification can be held quickly and steadily. Alternatively, it can be used in conjunction with a tripod, which can be easily and quickly attached to the tripod thread using an adaptor (included with the BL 15x56).
Argon gas filling inside the binoculars prevents fogging of the glass-air surfaces and ensures permanent corrosion protection. The extended exit pupil ensures that the entire field of view remains clear, even when wearing glasses. Rotatable, locking rubber eyepiece cups are another feature of the comfortable design.
The BL binoculars come with a wide neoprene carrying strap and a ready bag.
