Review on ๐Ÿ“ฑ Carson HookUpz 2.0 Universal Smartphone Optics Digiscoping Adapter IS-200 for Enhanced Binoculars, Spotting Scopes, Telescopes, Microscopes, Monoculars, and More by Percy Haulin

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Decent product, suitable for photo adapter

Overall I think this is a decent product. So far I've only used it with a Vortex Razor 20-60 x 85mm spotting scope. The eyepiece attachment barely has enough freedom of movement to attach the Vortex eyepiece, but it holds my iPhone 6 in place. The smartphone clips are fairly intuitive to use, but the device is mostly plastic so there is some play in it, meaning the phone can easily get out of perfect alignment with the scope. The main reason I gave this product 3 stars instead of 4 wasn't clear to me when I first used it, but became painfully obvious when I tried to take a picture of eclipse.glare! The product leaves most of the eyepiece exposed to ambient light, so serious glare can occur when attempting to photograph dark objects with nearby light sources. You won't notice any glare when photographing bright objects. You can deal with glare by covering the eyepiece with a dark towel, shirt or something, or simply covering it with your hand. I did it with Eclipse and it was manageable.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • No
