[0.18 lb] Because it does what it’s supposed to do. It’s solid. I haven’t had a problem with it in a year. 5

[Black] This makes glassing and confirmation so much easier. In the past I would refrain from putting my binoculars on the tripod because it was such a pain. Now I have no issues with leaving the post on the tripod for the quick transition. There were even times when I shot off the tripod with this laid over. Definitely a solid choice for glassing any meaningful distance when stability is key. I’ll be sure to have this system on all my set ups moving forward. 5

[0.18 lb] Easy instillation and flexible thread option allowed for the use of Vortex Binos with a monopod to aid in more comfort and less movement of binos while glassing. 5

[3.9 x 3.8 x 1"] Easy of use and durability. The attachment that goes onto the Binos isn't even noticeable when not in use. 5

[0.18 lb] so simple to use. I purchase extra studs for all my binoculars. It is so nice to be able to simply switch from glassing while holding my binoculars to using the tripod. 5

[Black] Great product for a great price. Easy to install and is built durable to last. Should last several hunting trips. A+ 5

[Black] Just spent 5 days in the mountains with the pro adapter and stud attachment attached to 4 different pieces of optics hiking rugged trails and riding rough roads. Everything stayed tight and functioned as advertised. 5
