Christmas present Purchased for present for my son but he has checked it and seems very pleased with it. It is to be used with Skymaster 20 x 80 binoculars which are quite heavy so a sturdy tripod was required. Extremely efficient service, arrived in two days, thank you for that. (23/11/2021) -
Very sturdy high spec tripod Needed a tripod for my 20 x 80,s binoculars and after much Googling and searching settled on these and was not disappointed. They are very stable and easy to extend and have more than enough height when fully extended .very smooth in operation thanks to the oil filled head,highly recommended (22/08/2021) Kevin Jones - North Wales
Very good solid tripod. I spent ages looking for a good solid tripod for my Celestron skywatcher pro 20x80 binoculars.Most tripods were flimsy and not worth the money. I read many reviews about Fotomate VT-2900 tripod and can vouch for all of them. They are a solid build. Fast delivery by Harrison Telescopes. (02/08/2021) Russell Milgate - County Durham
Very good tripod, but poor instructions Very solid and robust, smooth pan and tilt. Easily supports heavy binoculars. Nice carry case. However the instructions are abysmal: a single A4 sheet in pidgin English that doesn't even mention some of the features. Had to find a review on YouTube to learn how some things worked.
