Orion Paragon-Plus Binocular Mount and Tripod
  • Parallelogram-style mount with sturdy tripod makes binocular astronomy easier and more fun!
  • Mount holds binoculars up to 80mm to eliminate arm strain and shakiness for viewing comfort

  • Sturdy Paragon-Plus tripod provides heavy-duty support and superior rigidity

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.

Please note this product was not designed or intended by the manufacturer for use by a child 12 years of age or younger.

Orion Paragon-Plus Binocular Mount and Tripod
Reviewer: Frank M Delsied
This product is a great investment--an absolute must have for binoculars of the 20x 80 size! Before hurricane Katrina I have bought many products from Orion and they're always a fine buy. This one is a rock sturdy. Anonther winner 5 stars! Easy carry out to the backyard and Star Parties. Site scouting for that dark sky when lugging a 12" SCT is too much to move all the time! Very easy to put together wow i can say! Money well spent, Hats off to you Orion from the Gulf Coast Astonomer Frank M Delsied
