Rifle Scopes PHONE SCOPE!

I tried two different ones one was ok not great not that i need it with a 5x50 the resolution from the phone thing was not so good for600 yards all intended purposes it was down right bad . I liked the one shot cam I have seen and the guy who owned it said it would work like it did out to almost a mile which i though was pretty cool . The resolution was way better and way less shaky .
one was real cheap amazon 20x zoom that stunk in everyway the other was better but not by much
The Phone-O-Scope: Attaching SLR lenses to an iPhone was a better picture still shaky as could be even flat on the table little breezes made the pic hard to recognize maybe more apps could stabilize it I have no idea.
that guy at the range had something like this and it was pretty nice this brand says 2 miles . so that could be even nicer .

This is a phone scope on a spotter45
Not sure what’s up with the speed on this one, the wobble was because I didn’t have the cases tightened to the housing correctly

Ive read somewhere that side scope has some plastic parts and phone scope are all mostly steel?
Which is more solid less shaky?
Yeah, its why I havent gotten one yet. Thats about 6x more expensive than it should be IMO.300.00 for the pro version kit including specific phone mount..
Just saw the spotting scope version would only cost me 50 for the case and 28 for the adaptor which is fine for just spotting down range I guess.
I've got both the PhoneSkope adapter for my spotting scope and the SkopedVision that attaches to a rifle scope. So far, I've been really happy with both of them. You do need to spend a few minutes dialing in the SkopedVision to your particular optic to get the best results, but when you do it works well. The only down side is the prism housing being in the way means you have to be really mindful of eye relief. The PhoneSkope app is decent and gives some nice features (rotation, etc) and they're still working on the app. My old phone (GS7) didn't run well with it (no fault of PhoneSkope), but I am really looking forward to seeing how it does with my new GS10 when my new phone adapter comes in.
The spotter adapter, though, works like a champ. Minimal screwing around, just set the eye cup the way your phone needs it, plug up the adapter, and roll with it. I'm using one of the spotter-specific adapters, though, not the universal one.

That depends on how badly you need to make through the scope pictures. I use it a lot, so to me it was worth it, but most of my use is not while shooting.

I think it’s worth it. Here is the phonescope on my leaupold bx-5 15x binos
Anyone running the phone-scope with a GoPro? Just tried that setup today for first time at 1k yards on a Leupold MK4 spotter, I can see trace pretty well. Impact not so much but thats probably more a function of mirage/steel.
Just wondering what settings I should be looking to set for optimization? I set the GoPro Hero 4 to narrow FOV, 1080p, high FPS frame ret (120 fps I believe. I then put the spotter at 12x. Anything more than that made it look like the go pro couldn't really focus on the target.
