Minox 8x44 bl hd

Does anyone have experience with these? I had a md 50 spotter and was super happy with the build quality but that’s my only experience with minox. The bird forums all have good reviews of them.

Nice binocular. We sold those years ago, and they were a great glass for the price

Thanks Doug!

Pretty good glass IMO. I haven't owned a pair, but I did spend some time behind some that a friend of mine owned. Wasn't crazy about the focus wheel if you're wearing gloves, but without gloves it was alright. Kinda heavy, but most high-end glass is. I remember the eye relief being a little too long for the eyecups, ala Zeiss Conquests. But if you wear glasses that would be a plus.

I have some that are really nice. I'm considering upgrading but certainly don't need to.
