Hi,

In my Orion catalog for the "Paragon-Plus™ Binocular Mount & Tripod" the description says "for binoculars up to 80mm". Mine are 80mm, should I worry that this is the upper limit of the mount capability? Any other recomendadtions?

Thanks!

Darryl

Hi Darryl
There could be world of weight difference between different 80mm binoculars so beware. You might checkout Universal Astronomics.

They will cost more but they are great mounts.
Hope this helps
