Here is the place to talk about all those equipment(Telescope, Mounts, Eyepieces, etc...) you have. Not sure which scope/eyepiece is best for you? Trash it out here!

Hi Richard,
Could you post a photo of your setup here? Would like to know how it looks like
It looks similar like the photo in the link below, though not exactly the same model of the Manfrotto mount.

It also works well when used seated.

Some bigger bino have 45 degree angled eyepieces, you dont have to break your neck like that person.

Yes, you don't have to break your neck. Just tilt the monopod and adjust the angle of the mount. Or seat down on a reclining chair.
