This may seem like an odd question, but I'm struggling with a decision on how to carry about a newly-acquired scope and tripod.
I've managed to pick up an Acuter ST 80ED spotting scope for a song and have bought an Opticron Birdwatchers tripod to mount it on. My wife and I already have one scope and tripod which gets carried around by the shoulder strap on the stay-on case.
Unfortunately the Acuter does not come with a proper stay on case so this option is not available to me. If I can find a stay-on-case that fits it, I suspect I may revert to the case shoulder strap as the preferred carrying option.
So here is my question. Does anyone make a tripod strap that you don't need to take off each time you open the tripod? I know the Scopac and it's equivalents will allow this, but is there an over-the-shoulder strap that allows such rapid deployment?
Thanks
