HIGH GRADE SERIES
The new MINOX APO-HG and HG reference class in binoculars
Now with extended field of view and Made in Germany
With their sharp optics and natural color rendition the MINOX APO-HG and HG binoculars
already rank in the top binocular engineering
class. Now MINOX engineers have been able to
extend the field of view of both model ranges
by up to 15 %, demonstrating the latest technologies in the manufacturing of high quality
binoculars. These binoculars are made at our
parent plant in Wetzlar, a further reference for
highest optical performance.
"Made in Germany" at MINOX is a mark that
stands for quality, precision and solidity and expresses our corporate philosophy. A guarantor
of meticulous care and precision during the en-

the phase-corrected roof prisms. Excellent handling of the binoculars is made possible using
the Quick-Close-Focus (QCF) feature developed
by MINOX. Just a single turn of the focusing
knob is enough to adjust a sharp image from
infinity to close-up, enabling a very fast adjustment in the near-focus range and precision
focusing at greater distances.
The MINOX APO-HG line also features very
high quality ED glass and offers the user an
outstanding optical performance for superb

10 product advantages at a glance:
Up to 15 % extended field of view
Depending on the APO/HG model used, the optimized and newly calculated
prisms and eyepieces offer the hunter an extended field of view of up to 15 %
Glass from the SCHOTT AG, Mainz, Germany
The high-tech optical glass is "Made in Germany" by the
Mainz based SCHOTT AG, which is a subsidiary of the Carl-Zeiss-Stiftung, German
glass pioneers.
Distance-scale for a quick distance-setting
A quick glance at the focusing wheel makes these binoculars a reliable rangefinder.
The scale on the focusing wheel of the MINOX HG binoculars gives information of
the distance to the object focused on.
The new MINOX Quick-Close Focus system needs only one turn of the focusing wheel
to adjust the HG-binoculars from close to infinite.
Clear viewing thanks to MINOTEC
Thanks to MINOTEC technology the objective lenses can be cleaned quickly and
convenient. Dust and dirt particles are wiped away with ease.
Unrivalled lightweight and body shaping
All bodies of the MINOX HG binocular series are manufactured from magnesium. This
gives them an unrivalled light weight. This ergonomically shaped body is then coated
with rubber armor for a comfortable grip.
(only APO HG)
Highest light transmission through M* Lens coating
The innovative M*coating of the lenses optimises the light transmission and colour
rendition. With up to 21 applied layers to the glass surface, light loss by reflection
is avoided.
Ideal reflection through the non-glare coating MinoBright
®
This novel silver-bearing MinoBright® coating is used to apply a non-glare surface to the
prisms to ensure highest reflection of light. As a result, images are very bright, with high
contrast.
Guarantee for a long life: ARGON GAS INSIDE
A superior argon gas filler protects the inner glass surfaces against
fogging and corrosion, because it does not react with the other
materials. Due to its larger molecules, argon gas has a slower rate of diffusion than the
conventional nitrogen, which guarantees that the super gas remains inside the binoculars
for much longer than is the case with nitrogen.
Apochromatic lenses
(only APO HG)
The use of special glass containing fluoride in ED binoculars has improved the
optical performance significantly. This glass provides a solid image exceptionally
rich in detail and with high colour rendition throughout the visual field. The user
is able to see true-to-life images, even under critical lighting conditions.
Made in Germany
Quality "Made in Germany" and traditional German engineering values are held
in high esteem all over the world. Values such as quality, precision and solidity
in binocular development and manufacturing reflect the MINOX philosophy. The
binoculars of our APO-HG and HG reference class are manufactured with maximum
care and reliability in our factory at Wetzlar to meet the sophisticated demands of
our customers.
