The Scope Cam adapter fits various scopes with simple eyepiece or ocular from 35mm to 43mm in outer diameter. This means it will fit on almost any scope device currently available on the market. By combining the various parts, you will be able to mount a wide range of cameras (including smart phones) to your scope to snap pictures and record videos.

The Scope Cam Smart Phone Adapter plate is adjustable to fit a wide variety of smartphones (including but not limited to): iPhone, Samsung (Note, Galaxy), Sony Xperia, LG, HTC, Motorola and more. It is designed to support smartphones with a screen size of 3.7 to 7.6 inches (92-195mm).

The Scope Cam isn’t limited to smartphones! By removing the Scope Cam Smart Phone Adapter plate, you can use your Mirrorless camera as well giving you cleaner, more professional pictures. The light-weight nature of Mirrorless cameras makes them an ideal paring.

Please be aware that vignetting will occur on all smartphones and may occur on some mirrorless cameras depending on the lens length used. To correct for this, zoom/crop in on your and/or use a longer camera lens if available.

Easy to Operate

Once the Scope Cam adapter is attached to your scope, all you need to do is slide your phone into the holder, fasten it down and unleash your creativity. The Scope Cam allows you to attach it quickly and silently for capturing unforgettable experiences. Adjusting the focus is also quick and simple.

Operation method: It takes a few minutes to learn how to line it up right, but once you do it's easy to use. First, adjust the clamp to fit the eyepiece of your scope, but don't tighten it onto the scope just yet. Gently slide it back off the eyepiece. Next, put your phone onto the adapter and center it before tightening it. Just snug, not too tight. Then, flip over the adapter and loosen the knob to adjust the arm. Rotate it or adjust it up or down until you get the camera of your phone centered into the circle where the eyepiece will be. Once it's centered, tighten the knob securely. Turn it on the camera and slide the clamp back onto the eyepiece. This allows you to ensure your field of view is clear. You'll have to make sure the black edges of the circle around your field of view are crisp not blurry. This will take a little practice, but it's not difficult. When it's lined up right, tighten the clamp.

Rugged and Durable

The Scope Cam is made from hard anodized, precision machined, aircraft grade aluminum. The all metal construction is durable enough for long time use and makes it able to withstand the toughest weather conditions. The phone clamp is made of high strength nylon plastic which will not scratch your phone.
