Hello everybody, Im going hunting and I need your advice to find some accesories for my optics.. 

My idea is to mount my Spotting scope and binos together on the same tripod... I have seen some accesories on the web but dont know exactly what I require and which gear match my optics, specially because my SS is a little heavy.... this is what I have:
 
Spotting Scope: Zeiss Diascope 85mm
binos: Zeiss FL 42mm 
tripod: Promaster T325P +Manfrotto 128RC

This is what I need: 

1-Any mount to attach the spottter and binos together to the same tripod head/tripod
2-Bino mount  (what about BOGgear Binocular rest @ $49.99?? )
3-Spotter mount or base or attachment or what ???
4- Digiscoping adapter for a P&S Nikon P9100 Camera

I want to stay away from any Zeiss or Expensive Brand products, so the lightest and cheap will be the best for me.......

Thanks in advance for your advice Yippee

I was thinking about the BOG pod, when reading your thread.
 
They have one called the Super Steady combo. I want to say that this will do what you would like it to do.
 
I will have to double check.

Ok thanks for the advice!
 
What I dont know is whether my SS wil fit this tripod, I think it is too heavy

I saw a mount from Vortex, the Dakota tactical but it is no longer available and dont know if it would fit  Zeiss Prods.

I want to show something interesting I found on you tube.  

This guy has a lot of optics toys...  I wont need so many, but he has some good ideas.....
