With its fully adjustable eyepiece from 16x to 30x
magnification, its compact dimensions and
weighing in at just 660 grams the new MINOX MD
50 truly is a spotting scope to have with you at all
times. By having the MD 50 in its overall product
range MINOX offers yet another optical product for
the ever expanding market of nature observers. The
new MINOX spotting scope can, under certain
conditions, be an excellent supplement to
binoculars, in particular if a stronger magnification
than available binoculars is required. With the 16x
magnification of the variable eyepiece the compact
MD 50 W can at times be hand-held, although for
optimum use a tripod is always recommended.
Even with a 50 mm entrance pupil the MD 50 is very
powerful and provides good bright images. For high
light transmission as well as brilliance, high
contrast and natural color rendition the high
resolution objective lens system features the multi-
layer M* coating which is a MINOX development. Go
from just five meters from your subject right
through to infinity. An angled scope provides a
more relaxed stance during viewing and with a
swivel tripod connection the telescope can be
pivoted when on a tripod.
The sturdy but lightweight body protects the
precision mechanics and optics against damage in
normal use. Rubber armoring ensures good to grip
and provides added protection as it is also
dustproof and watertight to a depth five meters.
Nitrogen filling on the inside prevents corrosion
and fogging caused by condensation, even with
extreme temperature fluctuations. It is supplied
with a nylon ever-ready.
