ABSTRACT:
A binocular/spotting scope assembly for outdoor and field activities includes binoculars having stereoscopic vision and a spotting scope having a more localized, higher power field of vision than the binoculars. The binoculars and the spotting scope are supported in a substantially horizontal side-by-side relationship on a support which permits the binoculars and the spotting scope to be pivotally adjusted and positioned with respect to each other about both a horizontal axis and a vertical axis so that lines of vision of the binoculars and the spotting scope cross at a point forward of the assembly. Thus, the stereoscopic vision of the binoculars can be used to find an object and the more localized, higher power field of vision of the spotting scope can be used to more carefully examine the object. The support can be mounted on a vertically adjustable, portable base which permits the support, with the binoculars and the spotting scope mounted thereon, to be pivotally adjusted about a vertical axis and a horizontal axis for sighting by an observer through the binoculars and/or the spotting scope.
