## Description

This adapter allows you to attach binoculars to a tripod.

Review: Powerful for its size! - First off I am very happy with the quality and service I received from Seben. The spotting scope only took three days to arrive from Germany and I was able to track it too. In comparison I have previously owned both Tasco and Celestron spotting scopes / telescopes in the past and this is the first time I've used a Seben product. As for the quality of the optics I haven't noticed any difference between them and the previous manufacturers scopes I've owned and this is a good thing. The scope is lightweight and very portable which is one of the main reasons I bought it. The tube is made from sturdy plastic (but looks like metal) which might not appeal to some but for me it seems to do the job of housing the optics and focus mechanism just fine. As for the tripod I would suggest investing in a full size adjustable one, not that there's anything wrong with the one included but it's only a table tripod at the end of the day. It is very steady but only has adjustable tilt. The base mount on the tripod has a quick release mechanism and a standard size screw thread which fits most scopes and cameras etc. To sum up I think it's a great little scope and although it's not designed primarily for astronomical viewing it does serve well for viewing the moon which is what I use it for mainly, it is also possible to see Jupiter although not in great size and detail but it really is designed for terrestrial viewing and that's where it excels.
Review: I have no clue why people give 5 stars on this - I bought it because i love to have something what i can use to look at closer BUT this is just waste of money it look great till u not try look trough it there is no way that i can see something nice and clear in distance like 400m and if i try to zoom it the picture is just blur no way to make it clear not even crisp but what i expect for that price . if i want something better it also cost. So please if anyone thinking about it read this it is honest review not bul....t . I'm so disappointed with it can use it at all front ring with all names just felt off it is just rubber with all names as Seben and so on . I hope the people who give 5 stars on it will get money back for this :)) cose they help me to bay it !

It is useless for astronomy 22mm eyepiece zoom is not able to see a Jupiter moon that a £10 pound monocular can see the Jupiter moons. If you are in looking at birds it will be fine on sunny day. J
