I have an NG 20x33 spotting scope (small) and would like to use it with a full size tripod but I need an adaptor. Does anyone know what size adapter would fit onto the NG scope? My guess is the scope use a 3/8”female mount, but I’m not sure and thought I’d ask TT.
Thanks and happy new year everyone

Yes, it's a 3/8" hole in the base of the scope. A 3/8"-1/4" adapter comes with them new, since you're in Ottawa you might ask Cibles Canada (http://www.targets.ca/) since they sell them and are just up the road in Hull. Seems to be closed until January 10 though.

Thank you TT and those who PM’d me. I appreciate you confirming the size (3/8”) and have ordered an adapter.
All the best and Happy New Year

Generally a quicker solution if you have a camera shop nearby is to just get one there. They generally have them in stock.
