As the name suggests, Minox 10x25 X-active Binoculars Compact Outdoordesigned their Minox 10x25 X-active Binoculars Compact Outdoorto allow you to move fast, find game, and track it—to be your go-to optic that you'll keep in your hunting kit year round.

Proprietary M* anti-reflection multi-coatings on the lenses and phase-corrected roof prisms transmit bright and clear high-contrast images with true neutral color rendition and crisp clarity. Their wide field of view and 10x magnification are ideal for scanning the terrain, identifying your target, and maintaining your sight long before it sees or smells you. The 25mm objectives keep the form factor highly compact and light to maneuver easily without excessive movement that can spook game and won't weigh you down when you're stalking or walking all day.

Utilizing an open-bridge/dual-hinge configuration helps to cut weight without sacrificing stability while providing plenty of room to wrap your hands completely around the optical tubes for a better grip, even if you need to use them one-handed. The chassis is made of a lightweight and durable aluminum alloy wrapped in a protective armor that provides a slip-resistant grip—especially in cold and wet weather. The optical tubes are nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed to be resistant to internal fogging and also waterproof and submersible to 16'—so the X-active binoculars will fair better than you if they tumble into a stream or pond.

Q: 6. What are the main differences between X-Active 8x25 and the older Minox BV 8x25 (62059) they replaced? I compared the specs and can see the X-Active are a few ounces lighter but not much else. Are there any differences in terms of optics?

A: Newer coatings and a newer procedure to put the coating on the elements. Increases light transmission and colors

Q: 7. Where is this made?

A: The Country of Origin is China.

Q: 8. Are the roof prisms in the Minox 8-44 X-HD phase-coated?

A: Dielectric-Coated Roof Prisms. This type of coatings are found on roof prisms of binocular and are there to increase light reflectivity - As the light is incident at a glass–air boundary with an angle less than the critical angle, total internal reflection does not occur at that surface. To solve this problem, a mirror coating is used on those surfaces. To quantify typically an aluminium mirror coating is used that has a reflectivity of 87% to 93%) or a silver mirror coating (reflectivity of 95% to 98%) is used. The light transmission of the prism can be improved by using a dielectric coating rather than a metallic mirror coating. This causes the prism surfaces to act as a dielectric mirror. The dielectric multilayer coating increases reflectivity from the prism surfaces by acting as a distributed Bragg reflector. A well-designed dielectric coating can provide a reflectivity of more than 99% across the visible light spectrum.

Q: 9. Why did the Terra ED Pocket 10 x 25 come without protective lens caps ?

A: The reason that the ZEISS 10x25 Terra ED Compact Binoculars don't come with protective lens caps is to allow the individual user of the binoculars to choose the ocular cover that they prefer. The construction of the ZEISS 10x25 Terra ED Compact Binoculars offers a very deep hood for the ZEISS hydrophobic multicoated optics for protection.

Q: 10. Neck strap included? Lens covers included?

A: Neck strap included but NOT lens covers.
