Field Optics Research went back to the drawing board and retooled from the ground up. Now made of Hard Anodized 6061-T6 aircraft grade AL, the new GEN 2 model still maintains the rapid release feature but is rock solid when mounted. They have also added a third mounting option to the base. Now the base has Arca Swiss direct connect on the sides, Manfrotto 200PL front to back, and 1/4-20 on the bottom. Absolutely the best binocular tripod adapter on the market. Guaranteed for life.
