[QUOTE="BinoBoy, post: 1783571, member: 61962"] I'm glad you like them James. I've got a pair in transit from Ireland. I traded my well used Minox 15x58 ED to Sancho for his 10x35 eII. Sadly, I'm out of town this week, so I won't be able to collect them until Monday. I can hardly wait. There's nothing like birding on a beautiful spring day with a sexy new pair of bins. Incidentally, if you fancy a tripod/monopod mount for your new Nikons, the Hama 5420, 5422 or Kaiser 6032 work with them and are smaller, lighter and cheaper than the Nikon adapter (but not as strong or as well made). I see there is one of the Kaisers available in the UK right now.

The MagConnect is a magnetic disk with a tripod socket on the bottom and a couple of metal caps with tripod screws on them. You screw the disk onto a monopod and a cap into the bottom of the binocular adapter. You leave the Hama adapter and MagConnect cap on the bins.
