Reasonably low in weight, maintaining the established BL optical quality coupled to an attractive price are the main elements of the BL line that the MINOX engineers have put into the new BL 8x56 BR and the BL 13 x 56 BR. In spite of their extreme light-gathering power the two latest members of the BL family weigh in at just over 1000 grams. The BL13x56 with their high magnification are particularly well suited for observing game and for detailed observation of very small subjects from long distances.

With tough rubber armoring and an ergonomic design the new BL binoculars are comfortable and convienient to hold, this being helped in particular by their relatively low weight.

With their roof prisms with phase correction coating the user is given an image of exceptionally high detail rendition and rich in contrast, even in poor lighting conditions. The extended exit pupil allows spectacle wearers to enjoy the full field of view which is sharp right to the edges. Twist-up rubber eyecups with click stops are a very convenient feature for them. Included with the new BL binoculars are a wide Neoprene strap, rainguard and case.
