Binocular and monocular accessories make viewing easier. Think of a harness, an adapter for your tripod or a cap for the lens. With them, you watch longer, calmer and with a sharper image. That is great for birdwatching, but also when hunting.
Binocular and monocular accessories: what do they do?
Binoculars feel heavy round your neck, especially after a few hours. A harness spreads that weight across your back and shoulders. As a result, the binoculars hang steady and your hands stay free. Do you want to watch one spot for a long time? Then put the binoculars on a tripod. With an adapter, you click them on in no time. That way the image no longer shakes and you see every detail.
Protection counts too. A lens cap keeps out dust, sand and rain. A rain cover also guards the optics in bad weather. Thanks to this, your binoculars last longer, even with heavy use in the field.
What should you look for?
First, check the size of your binoculars or monocular. A cap or cover often fits only one series. With Kowa, the series is in the name, for example SV42 or BD XD. You can also get a universal tripod adapter, such as the one from Konus. Not sure? Just ask us.
In addition, caps, covers and illuminators from Kowa, AGM, SiOnyx and FLIR.
In short, with the right binocular and monocular accessories you watch longer and sharper. You find the binoculars themselves in binoculars and monoculars.
