Digiscoping with an Iphone

[Nick Muche]

What are you folks using to digiscope with an Iphone. I have been on the fence about the Kowa adapter and the Meopta adapter for quite some time mainly because I have yet to see any photos taken through it. Anyone have experience with either, or another option?

I have taken pics without an adapter and it is a PITA.... for me.

Just trying to see what is all out there... I run a 80mm Swaro if that matters.

Was thinking about just going ahead and getting the Tines Up system and being done with it, but since I have my phone along most all the time, why not try and make that work.

Thanks!

What about the phone skope? Looks promising...

 

[Travis Bertrand]

Phoneskope. It's light, simple and effective.

how does the quality look for the Iphone digi pics?

 

[Ryan Avery]

Look at the Meopta article. Matt's pic is from the Iphone.

Judge for yourself.

Here are some near and far. That last one was probably 1k plus, the first two 200 or so, the 3rd 400 ish

Nice - every time I take pictures in the field with my Iphone 4s they look good but when I get them on the computer they never look as good.

Thanks for the pics, I'll be ordering a Phone Skope adapter soon as I always have my phone with me too.

Another vote for phone skope.

 

[Nick Muche]

Done! Thanks!

I just ordered the phone skope for my new Razor HD. I don't have either one to review yet.

those pics came out pretty good, I may have to look into this option

Back in February a bunch of folks were about to move forward with Phone Scopes.
Was wondering how that worked out. Can photos be crisp. As needed for bird shots?
What success/frustrations have you had?

The Greater PC was taken at 150-200 yards and the Lesser was probably 25-30. These were with a Razor 85mm and a Droid Razr phone. The biggest obstacle is getting the phone to focus on your subject. It kept focusing on the grass. I will be able to give you a better opinion after using it this summer for scouting. I like the video with the phone because you can hit the button and then back away to prevent any movement. Need a delay on the shutter for photos. I haven't looked into that yet, but think that it is a possibility.

Matt,
Wonderful photos, especially the lesser pc.
Thanks.
Think i'll give it a try.

 

[Matt Palmquist]

Thanks! Does anyone recommend an app that you has a shutter delay?

 

[Matt Cashell]

Matt,

I use Camera! app. The timer works pretty well.

I use camera pro f/x. It's a free app
