However, you must have a sturdy tripod for them and make sure there is a tripod adapter in the box. In addition, Roger Hill taught me how to reinforce the adapter. Because it is made of plastic and the binoculars are so heavy, it flexes and thus causes shake. So Roger suggested buying some Steel Epoxy Putty, mixing in a few nails and filing in the crevices on both sides of the adapter. Works well. See link below\u2026It\u2019s made by Tech Steel...<br>
