NEW Phonescope Mobile Phone Microscope - up to 30X Magnification!

Product Information

Quality Concerns: Some users have reported that the image quality with Magview isn’t quite as sharp as that of Phone Skope. We have also introduced a new feature at the bottom of the app, an icon for controlling the brightness of your screen manually. A user may select their desired level of brightness for their screen; however, this will not impact the brightness of their captured images and videos! Limited Compatibility: Unlike Phone Skope, Magview’s compatibility is limited to specific phone models. In the showdown between Phone Skope and Magview, both brands offer unique advantages. Phone Skope’s versatile adapters and high-quality optics make it a strong contender, while Magview’s ease of use and affordable pricing make it a tempting alternative. When I used the iScoping adapter with my iPhone 4S, I was unable to use a screen cover on the phone because the width of the case was too precisely formed for the phone to slide in when it had any sort of screen cover. I like using a screen cover to protect the phone from scratches so this was a real downside for me. However, I believe this was fixed in the model that fits the iPhone 5/5s. On the newest adapters, the eyepiece adapter comes off and the case has no raised areas so it is really usable as a full time case; you can just keep the adapters nearby to screw on when you have a digiscoping opportunity. Pros

In the event you plan to use 1 specific phone and optic for phone scoping, Phone Skope also offers a full lineup of specific fitting adapters that service hundreds of optics and smartphones. When I phone scope I prefer to use the specific fitting adapters from Phone Skope. The reason being they are fit specifically to my smartphone and optics which allow me to take capture more in a matter of seconds. I have used the Universal attachments in the past and they work great as well. The only downside is that you are spending 10-15 more seconds to align everything properly, not a big deal but worth mentioning. No matter which method of phone scoping you prefer, either the Universal or specific fitting will meet your needs. Beyond Basic Digiscoping

What is a Phone Skope, exactly? The Phone Skope is an adapter system consisting of a smart phone case ( pictured above) and a complementary optic adapter ring (pictured below) that perfectly align a smart phone’s camera with the eye piece (ocular lens) of a variety of optics, most commonly a spotting scope or binoculars. Put more simply: Smartphone + Spotting Scope + Phone Skope = Digiscope. Wait, what’s a digiscope? Digiscoping is the practice of taking digital photos or videos through a spotting scope or other optic device. Easy Setup: Magview offers a straightforward installation process.

Next up, let’s turn our attention to Magview. This brand has also made waves in the industry, promising an easy-to-use, efficient solution for mobile viewing.

Camera live - This feature makes your camera swing on a complete 360’ angle and capture everything! While they aim to achieve similar results, there are substantial differences in their approach, compatibility, design, and overall performance. Let’s delve into these key contrasts. Affordable: Magview comes at a more affordable price point than Phone Skope, making it an attractive option for those on a budget.One thing that is pretty important for an adapter is to easily adjust the distance between the camera and the eyepiece so that you can minimize vignetting and get a clear image. All of the below adapters are able to do this, especially if your scow eyepiece has an eyecup that extends in and out without twisting. Novagrade Universal Smartphone Adapter Universal phone scope attachments from Phone Skope work well if you plan to use multiple phones or optics. The Universal phone adapter, also known as the “Lollipop,” allows you to fit various sized phones and adjust the adapter plate to different camera locations. It will also accommodate most phones in protective cases, even the larger phones like iPhone Xs Max, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone 7 Plus and also the larger Android smartphones on the market. Most smartphones are equipped with a voice command option to take photos. Enable the voice command option so that touching the phone screen to take a photo or begin a video isn’t necessary. This will minimize loss of focus and result in clearer photos.
