Be sure to use metal!

The product is sold in two versions: metal or non-metal. receive METAL. Attaching a cell phone to the lens requires some force, so make sure you get a metal phone! Attached is a picture from my phone mounted on a microscope. The microscope lens was too narrow to grab, so I added some bandages to give me something to hold on to. Aligning the phone wasn't easy, but it worked!

  • Absolute legend

Couldn't get it to work

I spent over an hour trying this with my iPhone X with two spotting scopes and a pair of binoculars. All 3 were mounted on a sturdy tripod. To be fair, a scope had a 2" eyepiece so the adapter couldn't be attached to it. With the other two, the problem was getting everything lined up so that the eye relief was set perfectly so the camera could see through the magnifying glass. There was just no way to line it up and leave it there. I really wanted it to work so I could record videos but I guess

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Good but not great

This item is AMAZING

***This item is AMAZING. I put 1 star for people to see. I opened the box and was able to install it on my monocular in a few minutes and get a great image, no problem. The actual photos I took are as shown in the picture. Filmed from my house. In Series 3, from the power lines, the first photo is just a camera (so basically naked eye), the second is mounted on a monocular with this mount, and the third is an incredibly magnified phone while looking through the mounted one monocular. on the…

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Volume

Well done. It takes a little time to set it up properly.

I wanted to take photos and videos while hunting with binoculars. I installed this at my home to try it out. It took a bit of tweaking to get my Samsung Galaxy S5 to align and focus with the left binocular hole. I had this on Vortex binoculars and was able to easily capture clear highway video over 1000 yards from my window. For the price I am very happy with this part. Seems to be good materials. I actually had to twist it at an angle to get the phone (out of the case) so it could line up…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Nothing

Sturdy device - camera and photo

When I received this I was amazed at how many people wrote multiple negative reviews about it. I bought the metal version and maybe that makes a difference. It is strong and holds the telescope's eyepiece firmly in place. Contrary to what one reviewer said, you can use this with a cellphone with a centered camera lens (I have one). This allows you to fully manipulate its position as needed. The easiest way to use this is to connect the device to the camera body with the side clips first, guide…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Pretty much everything is fine

Very important! - Accessories

This is excellent quality. The eyepiece clip and holder are made of metal. The plastic here would warp when tightening the yoke, but this feels very stiff. It fits snugly on the Celestron 15x70 binoculars eyepiece for which I bought an adapter. The rubber pads are pleasant to the touch, but are not needed in this case because the eyepieces of these binoculars have rubber rims. The hole on the phone stand/clip mount is long enough to secure the phone I'm using (Galaxy S4) snugly under the power…

Pros
  • High test results for hold and durability
Cons
  • Found negative
