The Nikon Monarch Binocular Tripod Adaptor allows you to easily mount your Monarch, Action, and Action Extreme binoculars, and any other binocular with a 1/4"-20 threaded socket, onto a photo/video/field tripod for hands-free use. The base of the adapter has a 1/4"-20 mount to be compatible with a wide variety of support systems. Using your binoculars, especially high-power ones, or those with large objective lenses helps to steady the view, reduce vibrations, and eliminate arm fatigue.

Q: 1. what are the dimensions? Specifically how wide is the part that gets clamped? I have a plate that fits the ftz adapter already but it is too small for the clamp I use, the clamp cannot be tightented enough to secure the plate.

A: The dimensions would be standard ARCE Swiss dimensions. So as long as the head that you use is ARCA Swiss compatible, this will work for you.

Q: 2. Does it get longer of its own accord? I have an Eagle Optics (R.I.P.) harness that has stretched considerably in its 6-year life. The straps also tend to slip through the adjustment buckle, so the nocs hang lower.
