About this item:
The perfect tripod should be stable yet lightweight and easy to operate, requiring minimal knob twisting and lever flipping. The Celestron Regal was designed to be your perfect tripod. It is lightweight (6.04 lb.) and compact, yet it can hold up to almost 9 lb of equipment. The Celestron Regal Tripod is topped with a two-way fluid pan head. The single handle makes it easy to move the head around, while two knobs make it easy to adjust the tension of the pan and tilt. A quick release plate with standard 1/4-20 thread mount makes it easy to attach a spotting scope, binocular, camera, or small telescope to the tripod. The quick release plate also doubles as a balance rail allowing the optic to be balanced when attached to the tripod. For additional peace of mind the quick release plate has a safety mechanism which prevents it from sliding completely out of the pan head without pushing the release button. The aluminum legs of the Regal Tripod are fully adjustable, not just in length, but in their angle as well. Each leg is made up of four sections that can be shortened or lengthened with the flip of a simple lever lock. With the center column fully extended, the maximum height achieved is nearly 69 inches (59 inches with the column down). The center column of the Regal Tripod does more than just go up and down. The bottom end of the column holds a retractable balance hook. Just hang something heavy from the hook like a backpack and you’ll be amazed at the difference. Two of the legs come with padded wraps, providing protection for your shoulder when carrying and making it more comfortable to make adjustments during cold weather. The legs also feature retractable spiked feet with the simple turn of the rubber pad depending if the terrain requires it. Other features include bubble levels, located on the top of the tripod and the side of the pan head. The included case is perfect to store your tripod when not in use or transport via the strap.

5.0 out of 5 stars High Quality Tripod
The Regal tripod is nice, sturdy, and fluid. Its solid, has good weight, and feels high quality. It looks professional and sleek. The carrying case is convenient and is useful. It operates and tilts based on your adjustment level and it’s the perfect size for the average person and has a wide range of adjustability. It’s a bit pricy but I feel like the quality is there, this is the nicest tripod I own next to my huge telescope one. I got this specifically for my spotting scope and sky master binoculars
5.0 out of 5 stars From a Birder's Perspective
I live near a large lake, and a spotting scope is necessary if one wants to identify waterfowl over miles of open water. This is my third tripod, and each of them has operated differently. My scope is a straight-through type rather than the ones with angled eyepieces. So I need a tall scope. The Celestron Regal fits my needs well with several inches to spare--the center post doesn't need to extend fully. I wasn't sure what a "fluid pan head" was, but I've been very pleased to learn that it makes scoping very easy. Once the adjustment knobs for pan and tilt are loosened a bit, I can scan as much as I want with no further knob adjustments. (The adjustment bar is used only for panning--doesn't tighten or loosen anything, and it doesn't need to.) Once my hands are removed, the scope remains pointed where I last looked. And the balance rail helps in my case. My scope is heavier toward the rear, and my last scope required tightening when I took a break from scoping in order to prevent the scope from tilting toward the sky. So on the Celestron I loosened the balance rail, and moved the scope forward in order to balance it a lot better. For the past two days I've scoped for waterfowl in pretty strong winds. The scope wobbled a bit with hands off but one hand on the adjustment bar and the other resting either on my scope or the tripod steadied the scope enough to identify ducks quite a ways out, an ability I didn't have with previous tripods. The scope is a bit heavier than others I've owned, but I think that helps make it more stable so I don't mind. The quality is top notch especially given its price range. A nice feature I discovered: if the adjustment knobs are in the way of anything, they can be pulled outward and rotated to a more convenient position. That's definitely not required, but is a very nice touch that the folks at Celestron added to this tripod. Highly recommended.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good, low priced tripod. Problems with shipping
Purchased the tripod for use with Celestron spotting scope as well as with a standard 35 mm DSLR camera. I needed a tripod that's sturdy enough to support the large scope, but also economical. I think this scope fits the need. It has a good height for both applications. When opened fully, its sturdy enough to support the large scope. The tilt and pan head functions smoothly and is capable of locking in place. Head components are mainly plastic. The crank handle that adjusts height seems flimsy and I'll need to be careful not to snap it. There can be some very slight movement in the tripod head when locked, but this can be managed with some careful setup. Since the head unit threads onto the tripod base, it can un-screw itself when panned counterclockwise, leading to some wobbling. I have tried to tighten the connection as much as possible and this has helped. If it loosens again I will try to tape the connection. The quick release plate is very handy. It's larger than quick release plates on many other scopes, and I think this helps with the mounting of the large scope. I wanted 2 plates so that one could be mounted to each device (camera and scope), facilitating quick changes. Because its larger, its very difficult to find and purchase a spare plate that fits this tripod. I have contacted Celestron customer service and they have been very responsive and offered to provide a spare plate for $15. It's apparently necessary to special request this item, as it doesn't appear as a spare part on their website, or anywhere else online. Finally, a caution regarding online purchase of this tripod. Bolo ships it in the original manufacturers box with no overwrap. Mine arrived damaged. Inside the box, the tripod is packaged in its carry case in a thin plastic bag, there's no styrofoam packing. My box arrived with a hole in it and the carry case had 3-4 small holes in it where the tripod wore through it from movement during shipping. The tripod itself wasn't damaged, only the case. Since Bolo return process is so easy, I attempted to return/replace the tripod, however the replacement was damaged during shipping so severely that it was returned to sender by the Fedex and never delivered to me. I ended up keeping the original with the holes in the case because I needed it for a trip and couldn't wait for another attempt at replacement. Overall his is a nice tripod for the money, but I wish Celestron packaged it better so that it could survive shipping without damage.
5.0 out of 5 stars Nice and stable
I ordered this to use with our Celestron scope, it’s nice and stable, lots of height adjustments and easy to set up. Came with a nice carrying case. I had been using a cheap camera tripod which couldn't handle the weight of the scope. I’m very happy with this tripod .
5.0 out of 5 stars Love this
Works perfectly for my Binoculars. Sturdy and strong.
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect!
I bought this to watch bald eagles in the Spring. Easy to carry through the woods easy to set up. Very sturdy. My husband has already “stolen” it to use.
5.0 out of 5 stars Out of control
Honestly one of the highest quality products ever. I also got the Trailseeker to compare, and yes the Regal is worth the extra money. They held no punches on functionality, usability, quality. Thanks, Celestron! (Not paid by them, just a happy customer)
BUEN PRODUCTO
Viene bien embalado, el material se ve de calidad , veré qué sucede.
Solid and useful
This is a great tripod. It's solid and stable and pretty light. Used it with my camera but should do very well with high powered binoculars as well. I would highly recommend it
Stable stand for my spotting scope
We live on the ocean. I use this stand to mount a large spotting scope that we use to look at the wildlife out of our windows and from our deck. The stand is stable and easy to adjust and move around the house. Fit the mounting hardware for our scope without any issues. I would recommend this product.
Very good, well made !
Yes
impreciso
La calidad del producto no se aprecia hasta que se experimenta como aprovecharlo, puesto que el manual es increíblemente parco e impreciso en cuanto a como armar el aparato y usarlo de manera apropiada. Por ejemplo dice: levante las pestañas de las patas para ajustar su dimensión , uno levanta la pestaña y sientes que está fija, debe decir: tome una llave Allen afloje el tornillo y levante la pestaña, y así sucesivamente, conclusión reprobado Celestron en sus manuales.
