MINOX ensured performance at the highest level when they developed and designed their new HG binoculars.

Using special optical glass from German glass specialist SCHOTT AG, a newly developed optical system provides a dramatically high level of light transmission, brightness and contrast.

With their sleek body design and magnesium housing, the HG binoculars are light in weight and esthetically pleasing.

Minox also installed a 'first' as the innovative QCF focusing now makes it possible to take exact distance readings from a scale on the focusing wheel.

Minox engineers developed the innovative M*-coating of the lenses which consists of up to 21 different layers on the glass surfaces, tailored to the various wavelengths of the visible light. This increases the overall light transmission to an impressive 92 percent, while improving brightness, contrast, detail and colour rendering significantly. A completely new optical system with internal anti-reflection and anti-glare coatings also improves contrast. All HG models feature aspherical lenses to enhance the contrast and sharpness of the image from centre to edge.

Better and more advanced handling is achieved through the Quick-Close-Focus (QCF), developed and patented by MINOX. With just one turn of the focusing wheel the HG-binoculars can be adjusted from close-up to infinity. With the aid of a scale on the central focusing wheel, the distance to the object in focus is indicated to the user. This additional feature makes these HG-binoculars a reliable distance rangefinder.

The eyepieces are fitted with twist-up eyecups with four click-stop positions. This gives more freedom for an individual’s own eye-relief settings.

MINOX HG-binoculars come complete with an exclusive case and a neoprene strap.
