I'm wondering if the 32 sizes ELs have a threaded binocular adapter built in? I know there is an OEM universal adapter, however, I would rather use a screw in adapter as I can change IPD on the fly.
The ELs don't have a standard adapter. My opinion is this is a ding on the EL line.
The only company I know that makes something is Outdoorsman. The custom make an adapter for their tripod adapter post. Very functional and nice. They are authorized by SONA, but I don't know if they do this on the 32mm series.
You can use a Manfrotto 035BN clamp on one of the barrels. I have an Arca-Swiss style QR plate attached to the spigot for easy mounting/dismounting. It's also way more stable than the oversized rubber-band contraptions.

I have the EL 8x32 swarovision Mk2 and got swarovski's own UTA adapter. It is very stable but if you keep the objective lens caps attached you'll need to remove them because the front bar of the stand goes right up to the end of the barrels on this model, not very convenient.
