Haven’t heard a lot of guys talking about this but Elkshape had a few instagram stories using it. It’s a little pricey, but I’m feeling pretty close to pulling the trigger. Thing looks way more convenient than a phone skope. What’re ya’lls thoughts?

Looks like a good idea to simplify things, but it's pretty pricey. Wonder how hard it would be to make one yourself. Maybe 3d print one? Can't be that hard right?

I mean I guess you could lol, but the finish looks pretty good and it protects the lens too. I don’t really want janky arts and crafts on my premium optics 😂😂

Just got mine and will be reviewing it.
So far it is impressive.
Yip, just released the pre-review thread on it here along with some video.


*one clarification that Tony caught, the magnet is on optic ring, not on the phone so there is no effect on the compass. Good catch Tony!

This product looks very interesting. However, I would think that repeatedly attaching and detaching the steel plate will eventually magnetize it some, particularly if a stroking motion is used to attach and detach the cellphone

So I bought one. Super easy to set up . Takes good photos with my iPhone 13 pro
The eyepiece is of course bulkier thanks a plain lens cap but still fits in my custom spotting scope cover.

Looks interesting. How does this handle different eye reliefs on optics? With phoneskope I adjust case or adaptor to get no vignetting. Has anyone had a scope or bino with longer eye relief that this did not work well or does it actually work well for any optic?
