German MINOX brand introduction
German MINOX brand introduction
MINOX is the original brand of the famous German 8x11mm spy camera. MINOX cameras later became one of the world's famous brands . Walter Zap, the founder of MINOX, completed the design of the prototype MINOX camera Ur-Minox camera in 1938. In 1948, he returned to Germany Wetzlar and founded MINOX to produce MINOX miniature cameras.
In 1938, 100 years after the invention of photography, the first ultra-small camera Ur-Minox was launched. It was smaller than a cigar and lighter than a lighter, and had top-notch optical lenses, providing people with An important tool for reproducing documents and street sketch photography, it immediately attracted the attention of intelligence agencies after it was officially marketed around the world. Therefore, Minox will become the world's famous ultra-miniature spy camera.
At the Cologne Photo Show in 1974, the 35mm camera-35EL was launched. It was as big as a cigarette box and had aperture-priority functions; the lens could be zoomed out. Inside the fuselage, the four-piece Tessar lens structure demonstrates excellent creative design and manufacturing capabilities. Minox 35 series cameras are also a must-have body camera for top photographers, because the photos they take can meet the stringent requirements of these top photographers.
2007 classic mini digital camera, based on the Leica M3 . Create a mini classic and digital replica camera.
After Minox made breakthrough achievements in photographic optics technology, it began to develop sports optics products, bringing the photographic optics technology refined over the years to sports optics products, including binoculars and monoculars. In the past 20 years, we have completely devoted ourselves to the research and development of different types of telescopes, including professional, portable, mini, etc., as well as top-ridge type. (Roof) and Porro (Roof), develop, design and manufacture more diversified and different types of telescopes.
Minox telescopes have developed high-end technologies such as "M* Coating" and "MINOTEC" in lens coating technology. Professional coating and APO technology correct dispersion and chromatic aberration, enhance light transmittance, and make the scenery more layered and three-dimensional. feel. In addition, the fast focus system developed by Minox can focus on the target in an extremely fast time. The fast focus system also has a distance target scale. The barrel is made of strong yet lightweight magnesium or aluminum alloy to protect the internal optical system. The barrel body is made of the lightest polycarbonate and other materials to make the barrel non-slip. Protect both the inside and outside of the fuselage. Minox engineers put people-centered design in line with ergonomic concepts. The design is based on light weight. Engineers understand that if used for a long time, the weight of the barrel is definitely one of the important factors. It is not only strong, but also can reduce the overall weight to the minimum. light. The ergonomic double-bridge hollow design allows users to hold and control it with one hand. The moisture-proof and anti-fog system of the telescope is filled with nitrogen gas. Minox develops a series of navigation telescopes with built-in digital compasses (compasses), altimeters, thermometers, barometers and data memory telescopes, integrating digital technology into optical products. As well as binoculars and monoculars with built-in analog compass (compass).
The latest X series launched in 2020 includes X-range, X-HD, X-active, X-lite, and X-RAPID , a total of 5 different series. Combining Germany's superior optical technology with the latest design, Minox products not only bring their optical products to the extreme in the same field. This is the philosophy of Minox : "GREAT PRICE, GREAT PERFORMANCE".
Over the years, Minox products have won many international awards and have been rated the highest rated and best-performing brands in authoritative international professional magazine reports.
