Binocular Tri-pod Adapter (1 Viewer)

stereotruckdriver · Mar 9, 2010

I currently have two adapters a Pentax TP3 and a generic L bracket. Both are same height though the L might be the sturdiest of the lot. I'm looking for an adapter that is a touch shorter, so the glass is mounted closer to tripod head? I really don't want to have to get one made and I'm sure there are some on the market that match what I'm looking for any help would be much appreciated!!! Bryce...

hello Bryce.

I use the leica tripod adapter as it will accept other roof prism bins, the downside is its expensive .
Try and get hold of one second hand if you can B

Nikon makes a nice unit that will work with pretty much any binocular. It is called the Nikon Binoc-U-Mount and it is reasonably priced

Thanks Doug, I never thought of that model? How will it work with the Pentax 20x60 WP II? And thanks again for the glass! Bryce...

Thank you for the info on the Nikon Universal Mount. Good price. I've been looking for a setup like this to pair with a monopod.

Here's another possibility.

It has two primitive ballheads, one at either end. One has a tripod screw and the other a tripod socket. It doesn't say how tall it is, but by shifting the binoculars towards you, you can adjust the height as desired.
