LAKWAR Telescope Phone Adapter, Universal Cell Phone Mount Compatible Binoculars, Monocular, Microscope, Spotting Scope, Telescope, Smartphone Holder Clip Bracket Fits Almost of Mobile Phones

If you have a phone and already have a pair of binoculars then this is a quick (and affordable) way to take some photos that will astound you. Of course, the quality of the photos can only be as good as:- The quality of the camera on your phone- The quality of the binoculars- Your ability to adjust them to their best performance level.The most difficult thing is to take your time is setting it up up. You well also need a tripod and a mount for the binoculars because this is going to be nearly impossible to use handheld. The adjustment to hold the mount on the eyepiece was fairly easy even with the Nikon's rubber eyecups. The rest is a bit of a logic puzzle to get the correct lens of the phone to align with the focal point of the binocular.To eliminate the circular sort of photos you see taken with many phones, just use your phone's zoom to fill the frame. Once all is adjusted you just use the binocular's focus adjustment.The photo I include was taken with Nikon Monarch M5 binocular and an iPhone 12 Pro Max. According to Google Earth the tank was approximately 1000 feet away.

It lacks z-axis control which makes it a little cumbersome to properly position the adapter on the eyepiece for the best field of view, but this can still be done with a bit of tweaking and then the adapter works great! At this price point the product is as good as one can hope for.

With your phone securely clamped and using proper eyepiece size, the iPhone 11 (and also the iPhone 6&7 - so I think bad fit for all iPhones). Problem is clamp bracket is so thick it keeps the iPhone camera lens 5/16" away from the Starscope monocular lens - letting in light a blurring the image. The advertisement in Amazon was professionally done and it looked good - JUST DOES NOT WORK - am returning.

Yes, love it

The plastic long piece that attaches to iPhone flexes and prevents parallel alignment of the phone and binocs lenses (which is needed for clear photos. Plan to find a metal support from a hardware store. The circular eye piece is a good idea and comes with circular pieces for different sized eyepieces on binocs or scopes.

I realize that practice and use may change over time of this. However, I cannot get this to line up properly with the camera on my phone while at the same time keeping the binoculars steady and trying to get everything into focus. Once I have things lined up and sorta steady I have a constant bright blog in the center that I can't get to go away. It doesn't matter if I am focusing on something away from any light (sunshine) or not. I was and still am holding out that eventually I can get this to work before it becomes just another gadget on the shelf.

This was easy to set up and works very well. I use it with a spotting scope on a tripod. Once I got the mounting circle adjusted to my scope and the phone camera lens lined up it is just a matter of seconds to mount it on the scope and photograph through the scope lens. Great little invention.

If you need a camera mount for a PVS-14, get this one! I originally purchased a different mount that the top is shaped like a stop sign. It did not have enough material to make a good grip on the PVS-14. This mount t comes with 3 inserts. The first insert is meant to always be installed. For the PVS-14, you will want to use the insert that looks like a gear. Once mounted, I can shake the PVS-14 and it doesn’t fall out of the mount. I can not say that for the first min t that I purchased. Also this mount was less expensive. I think I paid $9 for it.
