The Birder® Tripod, Legs Only

An ingeniously simple, stable, and elegant photo/scope support system!

Tripods are often overlooked in the scope purchasing experience, but they are a very important piece of the puzzle. A shaky tripod with even the best telescope drastically reduces use-ability and resolution. The Birder® Tripod is manufactured exclusively for The Audubon Shop. Extensive and intensive field testing by professional birding guides and users from around the globe have consistently earned raves and high praise!

What sets this tripod apart?

TWO LEG SECTIONS     The Birder® is the only tripod currently available with just two leg sections!

What’s so good about having just two leg sections?

• FAR GREATER STABILITY Two leg sections = one “joint” / Fewer joints = Less weakness and flex = Less Vibration
• LIGHTENING QUICK SET-UP with only one set of three leg locks to manage
• LIGHTWEIGHT (4.2LB) thanks to the absence of weighty extra hardware

Other Features:

• Over-sized aluminum legs and center column for increased stability
• 46” minimum height with legs fully extended and column retracted ensures less leg length adjustments to accommodate people of different heights.
• Extra-long 23” Center column (a full 1.25” in diameter!) makes for seamless transitions from land to sky without leg length adjustments
• Thick soft foam leg wraps for comfortable transport
• Max Height w/Column Extended: 65″
• Min Height w/Column Retracted: 25″
• Folded Length for packing: 26.25″ (with column removed)
