4.0 out of 5 stars Bushnell Binocular Tripod Adaptor warning, January 15, 2007

This review is from: Bushnell Binocular Tripod Adaptor (Electronics)

Warning! When I first tried to use the adaptor it would not fit into the binoculars. After some research about screw sizes, calling Bushnell, etc., I finally went to a hardware store and found that the adaptor and the binoculars actually were compatible threadwise. It turns out the adaptor threads were too high (poorly milled) and the receiving threads in the binocular were not cut deep enough (poorly cut - both probably due to worn out fabrication equipment). By buying a screw (1/4" 20 threads) and applying some grease, I was able to clear the receiving threads and then work the adapter into the binocular. Now everything works fine.

Works perfect with my Bushnell Powerview 16x50 Wide Angle Binoculars. I agree with Rima below - VERY awkward to attach and remove. Worth the $13.09 I paid for it on Amazon. The adapter works perfect, with one easy to live with flaw. Recommended.

It connects my Pentax 10x50 binoculars to my 60" Vista tripod. Both ends are easy to attach and detach, and the molded plastic body feels solid. It meets my expectations at a good price.
