I can second Matt's comments, Craig. I have an old Manfrotto 055B tripod which used to take considerable loads (5x4 large format camera, any SLR +lens configuration you could mention). I haven't used it for many years, but it's a quality tripod (though not as good as the newer 055CX3 Matt refers to). A good Manfrotto tripod should cope easily with heavy binoculars.
Cheers,
Richard
