Bino help

[Thorntoe89]

I have been doing tons of research, and finally decided to ask just like hundreds of others have...
IM looking for a pair of binos for glassing on top of my summit vortex carbon tripod.
I'm really thinking about the Vortex Razor 12x50's.... I'm wanting to stay at the 1,000 $ price range. The maven b6 12x50's from what I am reading is a better choice...? I just think ill have a mounting issue, I don't think the tricer bino adapter will fit this model for the arca Swiss mount....

What's your opinion???

Thanks

Have you considered the GPO Passion HD Series?

Order the Wiser BA-7 sparrow adapter. I was put onto it by a buddy, low profile enough to stay on when you go in and out of the harness and integrated arca plate. $50

BA-7 Sparrow Bino Adapter

At Wiser we love Ultralight and Multi-functional gear, so it's no surprise we would apply those priorities to a novel Binocular Mount. Enter the BA-7 Sparrow! NEVER LEFT BEHINDOur barrel mount method eliminates the annoying "center post" which can easily be left in the hills when removing it to...

I have never heard of them, I’ll look.

Same as with the wider adapter.

Thanks

Keep them coming

I would go with Maven's over vortex for sure.

It looks to me it will not work with a pan head. You wouldnt be able to pan up and down due to the swiss plate running east west not north south.... Or am i missing something?

You’re missing something. They will work fine on a pan head. The worst case is you won’t be able to pivot the binos about the post to help level them if your tripod isn’t level.
