Had a customer with a good point to share on
astronomy binoculars and one I've also wondered about, myself. When it comes to the really big
giant binoculars in the 25x100 class, the supplied 1/4x20
tripod thread is really much too small to safely support the weight. No doubt this size is supplied to offer more selection in the way of tripods, but the standard photo tripod is really too light, anyway, for this size binocular. Would like to see more in the way of specially built tripods or
tripod mounts for
25x100 astronomy binoculars. I have used some custom built tripods for these, but have yet to see anything commercial to match. I know OpticsPlanet would sell a lot of these tripods. We certainly sell a lot of these jumbo binoculars.
