I'd be wary of the 15 lb claims made for the one you linked to. The ones that he says can be used if you add extra weight weigh less than half as much as yours. There really is no point in buying decent binos (or any other kit) then hobbling them with an inadequate mount.

If this is true, the current brief review would in fact cover most of the currently available mainstream 25x100 binoculars (again, those who know better: please correct me!). Additionally, the floppy rubber objective lens covers really don't want to stay put. They will dive off the tubes and steal away into the night at their first opportunity. Don't ever let them get the drop on you. Celestron SkyMaster 25x100: Functionality On a dark and clear night, these binoculars reveal impressive details. You can see Jupiter's atmospheric belts, and when you scan the Milky Way, especially in the Sagittarius area, you'll be amazed by the dense star clusters and the stunning Sagittarius Star Cloud (also called Messier 24). Their multi-coated lenses provide excellent optics, delivering bright and clear images. In 2015, we chose them as our Editor's Choice for large astronomy binoculars. As expected, Mars is easily observable as a small red ball, but you can't really make out any other features than that, but am told that in better conditions you may be able to make out the basins from the red areas.Speaking of mounts, I am very keen on getting a parallelogram mount to get the most out of my experience, and would prefer this over a regular 'stand-up' mount if possible. In our Nikon Monarch HG 10x42 review, we loved these so much that we found them hard to fault. The optics are top-quality and we found almost zero chromatic aberration. This is thanks to Nikon's multilayer coatings on all glass elements and the included Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements.

If the Celestron SkyMaster 25x100 binocular isn't right for you Firstly, I already have a tripod which was given to me by a family member who no longer needed it for his telescope. I believe it to be more than strong enough to hold the 4.5 kg 28x110s. It is an iOptron iEQ45/CEM60 2″ Tripod (8021ACC) and details can be found here: https://astronomyplus.com/product/ioptron-ieq45-cem60-2-tripod-8021acc/ I note the thread size is described as M12, which I believe is a 1/2" thread; I am concerned as most of the mounts I've seen seem to require a different thread size (usually 1/4" or 3/8"). Would it be possible to buy an adapter to allow these mounts to fit my tripod, or would an entirely new tripod be required? large lenses and all the light gathering potential in the world is no good if that light does not make it through the optical pathway and onto your eyes. So it is great to see that Orion optics have added multi-layer coatings of an anti-reflection material to every lens surface throughout the 25x100 Giant View This big GiantView 25x100 binocular provides a generous 4mm exit pupil and the serious magnifying power you need to resolve subtle details in your target object.
