Big astronomy binoculars provide breathtaking views of starry skies, but they require a stable platform for comfortable use. While standard tripods are usually sufficient for daytime use, using them to point big binoculars to the sky is another story. Height limitations and awkward adjustment controls of standard tripods can lead to shaky, neck-straining views. Luckily, Orion has an essential solution for lovers of giant astronomy binoculars. The Orion Monster Parallelogram Binocular Mount and Tripod is specially designed for use with astronomy binoculars, and will provide big binocular enthusiasts with hour after hour of comfortable viewing with silky-smooth motion control. This stable mount can support giant astronomical binoculars weighing up to 15 pounds with up to 100mm-diameter objective lenses. The mount includes an anodized L-bracket for secure binocular attachment, and it conveniently accepts narrow dovetail plates so you can even use it with smaller telescopes. Since balance is vital when using large mounted binoculars, the Orion Monster Parallelogram Mount boasts six degrees of motion to make precise balancing delightfully easy. Tow 11-pound counterweights are included. This crowd-pleasing mount's parallelogram design can be used to raise and lower attached binoculars without disrupting the aim. With the Orion Monster Parallelogram Binocular Mount, you can position attached binos up to 6 feet and as low as 2 feet 6 inches. Get one today!
