Yesterday, on 11 May 2023, my mom and I took short hike through Morgan Territory Regional Preserve in Livermore, CA and walked a short distance into Los Vaqueros Watershed in Contra Costa County, CA. I took photos with my cellphone. I hope you enjoy viewing my photos!
One of the main purposes of my trip today was to test my new Vanguard BA-195 Binocular Tripod Adapter (Product Link - Affiliate Link). The binoculars I used was the Bushnell Engage X 10x42mm Binoculars (Product Link - Affiliate Link). The Vanguard binocular tripod adapter performed very well and the set up didn't wobble at all. The most issue I had was with my binoculars rotating a tiny bit on the mount, but you really can't blame it as it is mounted by a screw. This is way better than the first binocular tripod adapter I got (which I had returned), the Staoptics Binocular Tripod Adapter with Quick Release (Product Link - Affiliate Link). Not only did the Staoptics adapter have an extra long screw which was too long for my Bushnell binoculars, my binoculars just kept rotating and wobbling on the mount. I used the Staoptics one for a little over a week before I returned it. If you're looking for a quality binocular tripod adapter, go with the Vanguard BA-195 Binocular Tripod Adapter (Product Link - Affiliate Link). I used Vanguard tripods for many years for my photography, and they are a brand I trust. If I had known Vanguard makes binocular tripod mounts, I would have went directly with theirs instead of messing around with other brands.
