KAISER FOTOTECHNIK Binocular/Tripod Adaptor Model 6032

Circa Late 1980's to Early 1990's

Unlike the standard "L-shaped" adapters that screw into the front of a binocular hinge, this is a clamp-style adapter designed for binoculars that lack a threaded tripod socket.

How it Works:

• Central Shaft Attachment: It is designed to clamp onto the central focusing shaft or the bridge of porro-prism binoculars.

• Adjustable Span: The thumb-wheel in the center opens and closes the padded jaws, which have a span range of 12mm to 20mm (approximately 0.5 to 0.8 inches) to accommodate different shaft diameters.

• Tripod Mounting: The bottom of the adapter features a standard 1/4" tripod socket, allowing you to screw it directly onto any standard tripod head or quick-release plate.

Quick Setup Steps:

• Open the Jaws: Turn the textured thumb-wheel until the clamp is wide enough to fit over your binoculars' center shaft.

• Position & Tighten: Place the clamp over the shaft (usually behind the focus wheel) and tighten the thumb-wheel until it is secure.

• Mount to Tripod: Screw the entire assembly onto your tripod's 1/4" mounting screw.
