Can this telescope be used with a tripod? Thanks.

I don't think so. The base is very easy to use. I bought a fold out table to make it easier to use because I'm over 6' tall. I would also suggest buying more lenses or a 2x barlow lens which doubles the power of any lens. The weather here has not been very cooperative but I have seen the stripes on Jupiter and 4 of its moons. Very cool!

Yes, it comes with a tripod. The telescope is in a hard case and the tripod is in a zippered soft bag.

Yes you can set it up on a tripod! I don't think a tripod would really be nessisary, the shutter speed is pretty quick. (Any standard tripod would fit the camera)

Yes you can you it as a handheld but of course due to the size of the lens it is easier to use with a tripod. We do use it as a handheld sometimes, it is a great lense and we are very happy with it. Hope this helps

No it might be possible to rig someyhing up so you can but it's not designed for a tripod. hope that helps

Yes, you can use the camera with a tripod mount. Realize that here are two standardized thread sizes used for camera mounts: ¼"-20 tpi (threads-per-inch) or 3/8" screw sizes. With the exception of heavier pro cameras and tripod collars on heavier lenses, which rely on 3/8" screw mounts, most consumer cameras use ¼"-20 screw threads as does the Wingscapes camera, so most tripods work with the camera.

You may have received a response from me earlier. This evening when I returned home, I used a set of my binoculars and tried to mount to tripod. Not a good idea. The picture above looks different than one I have. I would discuss your needs with a local shop.

Yes... The binaculars can be mounted on a tripod. I use mine for bird watching and work great. A special adapter needs to be purchased for some tripods.

It doesn't seem to be, because it comes already mounted on a round platform that rotates on another platform of the same size, as you see in the photo. However, someone handy with their hands might be able to detach it from the platform and modify it to fit a tripod. Also, the base sits on 3 rubber feet; highly recommend the vibration pads from Celestron (available on Amazon) to absorb vibration.

Not a scope you'd use with a tripod. Scope is only 6" long. Handheld only but very handy and we pretty much have replaced our expensive binoculars with this scope because it is so easy to use.

No, you can get the same telescope on a tripod, but this set up would mean buying a lot of other pieces and disassembling this mount system. Look at this one instead Orion 9827 AstroView 6 Equatorial Reflector Telescope. Honestly, I would go with an 8".

I don't think so. I have this bino and can't see a place to mount the tripod. Ask REI as well.

Yes, it can be placed on a tripod. The tripod connects up on the left side corner on the bottom (the LCD display facing you).

I never used a tripod with this. But on the bottom of the binoculars near the front is a threaded opening that looks to be designed for a tripod.

If you are intending to use the telephoto lens, it will work IF you use the tripod. Otherwise, the smallest movement on your part becomes magnified into something that looks like an earthquake

That would depend on the telescope weight. In reality you are bett6er of with a tripod or mount designed for your telescope.

While it is NOT a telescope I have used mine to look at the moon and Jupiter. You will need a good tripod of course. But it was quite clear at looking at the craters of the moon. A bit shaky if bumped. Like I said, it is not a telescope.
