TrailSeeker Tripod for Spotting Scopes, Binoculars & Cameras | Quick-Release Plate, Smooth Pan & Tilt Movements, Adjusts to Your Terrain, Fast Setup, Perfect for Wildlife Viewing or Travel

A perfect mount for my Celestron C90 Mak-Cass. A solid foundation as a grab-and-go astronomy scope mount, albeit without slow-motion hand adjustments. But for quick lunar and planetary spotting this is a winner. Pros: Convenient carry case, provides inside pocket for whatever, zippered full-length and easy open padded compartment for tripod. Provides leveling bubble Provides a small compass for basic polar alignment if needed. Single knob provides lock-down of both elevation and circular movement. Very sturdy legs! 3-section; center post also extends vertically if you need additional height. I like that I can set the mount level low and sit comfortably in a lawn chair for my observing sessions. Bonus: not advertised, my tripod arrived with a very nice Celestron metal (ie, non-flexible/moveable) binocular/camera mounting adapter; also a smaller plastic adapter but no manufacturing info. Cons: none found. Nyah: nice add-on features might be azimuth and latitude rings, but this was not advertised as an astronomy mount, though it can serve that function.

I ordered this to use with our Celestron scope, it’s nice and stable, lots of height adjustments and easy to set up. Came with a nice carrying case. I had been using a cheap camera tripod which couldn't handle the weight of the scope. I’m very happy with this tripod .

Works well with Celestron 15x70 binoculars & Barska tripod adapter ( also available on Amazon - I read that the original plastic that comes with the binoculars are flimsy so I bought a metal one to eliminate variables that cause shakiness). I tried to get by with a camcorder tripod but there was too much shakiness going on so I bought this one...HUGE difference. This cost more than the binoculars but without it it's damn near impossible to hold them steady. This tripod feels very sturdy and robust. The 3 tripod joints feel, look, and act smooth and strong. One very bad flaw of this tripod is the handle. It's very poorly placed and almost feels like it's jamming you in the throat...BUT I found a fix for myself, just turn the top piece around. I guess another idea would be too bend it with a pipe bender if possible.

I cannot believe it works so well. Clear 200-300 yd paper target shooting even farther when shooting steel. Total distance good to 800yd+ get the Bluetooth phone adapter from their Amazon page worth every penny!!! Stand is great quality with lots of adjustableity.

I bought this tripod to use with a large set of astronomical binoculars, and I could not be more pleased. it is lightweight, easy to open and set up, and very steady. The movement is smooth, but tight enough to hold its position. I am tall (6'2"), but these are comfortable to use even standing. Good product.

I bought this to watch bald eagles in the Spring. Easy to carry through the woods easy to set up. Very sturdy. My husband has already “stolen” it to use.

this is not a lightweight tripod. I needed one for my big spotting scope and this is it. The mount for the spotting scope is husky and holds scope firmly in place. adjusting nuts and clamps are big and stay put when adjusted. Very nice product. It lives up to ratings that review people have said. 5 star Tripod

This is a nice lightweight tripod which is very easy to operate and does the job you brought it for. Not a lot of controls to do this and that just what’s needed.

Just under a year since purchase, the legs suddenly jammed after a night out in the desert. I was never really able to get them moving freely again, no matter how much I cleaned/reassembled it. It's a shame, since it was otherwise a pretty great tripod with a nice fluid pan head and it held my Celestron SkyMaster 8x56 binoculars steady and stable.

Buon prodotto, solido ma un po’ costoso

This tripod is well-built, stable, compact when folded, easy to use, and uncomplicated. Nothing fancy - it just works.

Fantástico

Buen producto
