1)Do they fold or telescope closed? 2)Can you adjust the hand grip height as well as the overall height?

1. Both. 2. Yes and Yes. The top half pulls apart from the bottom just above the grip for travel. There is a shock cord inside making it easier to reassemble. Both the top and bottom halves telescope for adjustment to your height and body length. I am 6' 0" tall. The armrest to grip adjustment is two notches from the highest. The bottom height adjustment is right in the middle. I could easily make the crutch 10" taller or shorter over-all. I would think a person anywhere from 5' to 7' tall could use these.For travel, I pull the two halves apart then telescope the bottom all the way in. That way the crutches fit in the travel bag provided. 1. Both. 2. Yes and Yes. The top half pulls apart from the bottom just above the grip for travel.

Im 5'11" and fully extended if im viewing low in the sky the eyepiece is at chest height, pretty much around the 4' height.Looking at something stright up put the eyepiece at around the 2.5' to 3' height.Its not to comfortable for tall people.Not many telescopes are.

There are three setting for the leg height. It has to be on the middle one to fold up and stay shut.

Just pop the arm rests up and fold the chair. If you are having difficulty, you may have a faulty chair. It is very easy to close.

These binoculars have a relatively small opening but the due have extending eye cups for those that don't wear glasses. For those that do, you leave the eye cups retracted and then you adjust the binoculars to your eye width. I have used them in the past with glasses before I had my Lasik surgery without a problem. The pair that I recently bought was a replacement pair for ones that I gave to someone that liked the ones that I had.

Yes, you can loose Altitude Locking Knob, located on the top of the round base, and DEC Locking Knob, located on the left arm of the mount. Of course, any manual movement will disrupt the telescope alignment.

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.

Push down on the end of the carabiner, towards the handle. Tilt the carabiner forward and it will fold into the closed position. Hope this helps! Alan Briley, RN

It does telescope, but only has one extender down. Plus you can move the handle as well

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.

When it is folded the size stated is correct. they not big at all. they turned out to be better then I thought. I bought 3 different Bushnells and like all 3

Honestly I need both hands to fold it up. I have to squeeze the sides to get it to lock in place. I've seen video of other people closing it without the squeeze but neither my husband or I have been able to do it.

You can press a bracket at the time hold till you hear the "click" on both then you can fold down. It was challenging till we figured it out as well. Good Luck!!

Its hard to get adjusted because they don't show the set screws that lock the forward arms in place. I'd be happy to answer your questions if I can.

I have a pair and use them almost every night since to gaze at the stars. The Moon will Fill up your view nicely. If you view say Jupiter with them it will appear quite small but if conditions are good you can actually make out Jupiter's moons even. Very good for starting Astronomy from a starter and will be used once I get a good scope also.

They are normal size binoculars and are not very heavy. If, you want more lightweight ones, these may not be right for you. Also you need to hold them very steady as they are very sensitive to movement. Or you need a tripod.

Yes you can adjust the hand grip height, actually quite easily. There is a large knob that you unscrew and then adjust and tighten back down. I love my drive medical---it has made it possible for me to continue working until I have my hip replacement.
