Attaching Bins to a Scope?


Recommended Posts

Advice please.

I have a Skywatcher 300P Flex Tube Dob but no finder scope. I have/use a Rigel to get to a starting star or location and then use my 25mm EP from then on. I have a mount(with the locking nut) for a finder scope and wondered if I might be able to utilise my 10x50 Bins? Anyone done this or advice on attachments to allow it? Thanks

I don't think fitting bins to a scope would prove very practical as you would struggle to find a position in which to view with both eyes although you may be able to see through one side and use as a monocular finder. The extra weight may also cause balance issues.

Hmmm yes I see the negatives in what you both say. I probably need to start to think of either buying a scope or may be another EP that is comperable to a Scopes view? Thanks
