Are the object lens covers permanently attached to the binoculars I have seen pictures wherethey are hanging from the end of the binoculars?

Both ends have covers. The "eye" end is not attached & can be removed. The other end the covers are attached to the binoculars, but with regular usage and quickly cam loose.

Sorry about being so slow with this response. The message got caught in the old spam trap. My Monarchs are 12 X 35, and the big, or bottom lens cover is semi-permanently attached to the body of the binoculars, via a rubber ring. They can be removed by carefully slipping the rings off the tubes. The small, or top covers can be attached to the binocular neck, or harness strap. I use a binocover harness system, and thus I do not have the top covers on the glasses. Hope this message was helpful, even if it was slow. JK

Be sure you have taken all of the lens covers off. There is a big cover over the end.

They do have two snap clips that attach to rings on the binoculars, so if you had similar rings on your camera it would be a quick change. This harness is fantastic for my binoculars!

They are for me. There are roll down rubber cups on the oculars that when folded down make use with glasses better, but not as good as without glasses. My solution has been to use a neck chain with my glasses. I just let them drop and hang around my neck while using the binoculars with my naked eyes.

Yes. I use the strap on the binocs while it is in the case. The case also has a belt loop. Really nice binoculars.

1st, there is an adapter you will need to mount them on a tripod. More specific to your question, we have been using them with a very cheap tripod that came free with a camera purchase, our heavy-duty tripos being tied up with a small telescope at the moment. The cheap tripod holds the binoculars just fine (well, as steady as that cheap tripod will allow for at least), no weight issues. I would say you can spend as little as you'd like on a tripod for these. We have found that the stability of the tripod head is really the only issue...you can buy a step up or so in quality to alleviate that issue, but the cheap little one we're using allows us to just grab it an go...and, we have no issues with weight of the binoculars.

Yes, they come with a strap that has attached lens protection covers. They were reasonably priced and I have enjoyed mine and use them frequently. I hope this helps.

Not 100% sure. The way you attach the lenses are by the use of magnets and a little pre-applied glue on the magnets.

I remove the objective end covers them. I kept them on, but I lost one on the objective end. Vortex sent me a replacement at no cost. so now I remove them when out birding. The ocular covers connect to the strap.

Yes, both ends have lens covers. Great optic. I put it on my 300 blackout and I love it.

They have soft forming rubber that flips back completely out of the way easily. I personally don't wear glasses but would guess these would accommodate. Great binoculars.

No I have not and have not known any who has. They are designated as birding binoculars. I do not know if that applies to the question or not.

The full length of the scope is 5". If the rings as measured at their farthest ends, are greater than 5" apart, they will hang off of the end of the scope. If the ends of the rings are 5" apart, they will be installed right at the edges of the scope. In this situation, you would not be able to install the lens covers due to the rings being in the way.

Yes - the larger end has end caps that attach directly to the binoculars, and the smaller end has end caps that connect to the strap. I really like the design - they are handy easy to use and yet won't get lost.

Not for sure. It's been to long ago since I ordered them. But the binoculars fit really well in the case.

Hi Eric, I wear glasses but I dont wear them when I use binoculars of any sort. I focus and adjust the bins for my eyes and it is just a second to whip the glasses off and raise the bins to my eyes. I feel I would have missed the bird or action wearing my glasses and using the bins anyway. I haven't found a pair of bins that doesn't make me feel uncomfortable looking through glasses and bins together - I include Leicas, Nikons, Lynx, Zeiss etc. Hope this helps. - Geoff

no. It is permanently attached. It has been designed and optimized for the sensor and the zoom range. If you want to change lenses, you'll need to look elsewhere.
