Astronomical Observations
The Paragon Binomount is ideal for astronomy, gone is the tiring and shaky stargazing or the eternal problems of panning to the zenith when the view is only a few centimetres from a tripod leg. Swing the glass to the target without effort, let it go and observe in a relaxed manner.
The Construction
The Binomount is solidly constructed, all parts are of course made of metal and the slide bearings allow free panning without effort. At the base, the Binomount has a 3/8" tripod thread and thus fits practically all good photo tripods.
Mounting binoculars
Simply remove the protective screw between the lenses of your binoculars to reveal a 1/4" internal thread. This is exactly where the L-bracket screw fits in. After that, all you need to do is balance it by moving the counterweight and you´re ready to go.
The attachment of binoculars with integrated tripod adapter
The L-holder is intended for binoculars with a tripod connection thread on the central axis. Larger binoculars with 80mm aperture already have an integrated tripod adapter. A specially shaped holder is available for these binoculars.
