Default Celestron Spotting Scope

The larger binoculars are better mounted on a tripod.


There's an article on my website about how to make a parallelogram
binocular mount - it's amazing how much more you can see when the
view is rock steady. Useful for family use, too, as the height of the
user
is easily catered for by the parallelogram which keeps the object in view
while being raised/lowered.
