Been trying to get my
Nikon 10x70 Astroluxe binocular mounted to a
tripod, but the needed
Nikon binocular tripod adapter,
Nikon 7806, has been backordered now for almost a year and is still not available, anywhere, and a standard binocular tripod adapter does not work on this Nikon binocular. So, I just took the old video tripod a friend gave me, cranked it up to full height and used it as a rest for my arm as I held the binocular. Okay, not as good a setup as a real tripod attachment, but it definitely helped when I decided to put the Nikon to work on some double stars. If Nikon doesn't get the adapter out soon, I will try to build something out of wood. That will be interesting, given my total lack of skill with tools, but what's a girl to do?
