New Magview Gear Digiscope?

[dank]

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?

S1

The MagView S1 system is the most streamlined, multifunctional spotting scope digiscoping system to date. Be ready to capture content at a moment's notice.

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.

New Digiscoping Option—MagView **Review Added 8/3/22**

I’ve had one for a few weeks now (well, actually two, as there is a binocular option —the B1, and a spotting scope option—the S1.) They’re just becoming available today, so wanted to get some experience with the system before posting. It’s called MagView, as it uses a rare earth magnet on any...

*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

I’ve been using it and love it.

A system like this compatible with the already popular Rokform cases would be sweet.

FYI use coupon code elkshape for $17.00 off.

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?
