<p>This solid mini dovetail allows you to attach instruments such as spotting scopes, cameras with telephoto lenses or telescopes to mounts with Vixen style saddles or clamps.</p>
<p><b>Versatile attachment possibilities</b></p>
<p>For example, you can attach two tube rings closely together.</p>
<p>Or connect compact telescopes via a universal mounting plate with more than one screw. This increases stability significantly.</p>
<p><b>The dovetail bar also fits Vixen style clamps, so with their use it can be attached to photo tripods and tilting heads.</b></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
