Stargazing with binoculars is an idyllic pleasure. All the more so with our Orion Paragon-Plus Binocular Mount & Tripod. It's a parallelogram-style mount that comes complete with our sturdiest professional field tripod, the rock-solid Paragon-Plus XHD (less pan head), for one very attractive price.
The mount's silky smooth motion provides relaxing viewing for hours on end with binoculars as large as 80mm in aperture. It eliminates arm strain and shakiness, and allows you to aim your binocular high overhead, even to the zenith, while you stand or sit comfortably underneath. Ahhh!
What's more, you can raise and lower the binocular while staying fixed on a target, a wonderful feature when two or more people are observing together.
Solidly constructed of aluminum, the mount features a sliding counterweight for perfect balance and an L-adapter for attaching any tripod-adaptable binocular.
Maximum binocular height is 7' 7". The tripod and binocular mount each come fully assembled. For use with MegaView 80mm binocular, adapter (07589) is required to couple the MegaView's integrated 1/4"-20 post to the binocular mount. Total weight, 19.8 lbs.
