Celestron Smartphone Adapter & Bluetooth Remote for Telescope Eyepieces | Phone Adapter for Telescopes, Binoculars & Spotting Scopes, Bluetooth Camera Remote, Capture Images & Video, Travel–friendly

Worked great , used it to take some pics through my cell phone and 8 inch Dobsonian. Would recommend as a cheap alternative to very high price cameras .

Works great. Makes viewing and recording a breeze.

Me gustó porque me permitió conectar mi celular a mis binoculares Celestron y capturar imágenes notables, como el faro de Cabo de Hornos, Chile. La instalación inicial requiere algo de paciencia debido a sus tres grados de ajuste, pero una vez alineado correctamente, permite obtener tomas únicas e inolvidables. Un accesorio muy recomendable para quienes desean llevar sus observaciones al siguiente nivel.

No matter how I tried, there was no way I, even with the help of an optics technician, I could align my iphone lens to the eyepiece of my Celestron Ultima 100 recently purchased. I haven't been able to obtain one clear picture of the telescope view. Even a weak plastic screw broke while trying to adjust the pieces... Really disapointed with this purchase...!!

Doesn’t work with my scope

Pretty janky. Very difficult to get in the right spot.

This adapter is difficult to adjust properly and worse, to secure your phone properly, it might end up pressing one or more buttons on your phone! Your phone is held in place by tightening a long threaded bolt screw that slowly opens and closes the phone clasp around your device. The phone is held snugly between soft pieces of foam. It's a very slow process to get your phone in the holder, especially if you have a wide phone. Adjusting the X and Y axis of your phone in the mount is even more problematic. You can't really adjust each axis individually. You essentially loosen a single thumb screw on the back and then you sort of rotate the phone clockwise/counter-clockwise while sliding the phone up and down. If you're able to get it aligned, then you have to tighten the thumb screw without moving the phone at all, or you'll lock it down in the wrong alignment. It's extremely difficult to make fine tune adjustments, and that's even harder if you're trying to do it in the dark. The worst part of this design is that to get your phone camera lens into the proper X-Y position alignment with your telescope/binocular eye piece, you may have to position your phone so that one or more of its side buttons will be pressed down by the foam clamp that is holds the phone in place. There's several problems with this, but the main one is that if it's the power button on your phone, the holder will keep the power button depressed, which will end up rebooting your phone. If multiple buttons are held down, it might even send your phone into the bootloader/recovery screen! I've attached several pictures on different phones, showing what I'm talking about. I've highlighted the buttons that get pressed down by this adapter when the phone is securely fastened into the device and the camera lens is in the proper position so that it lines up with the eye piece on your telescope/binoculars. On a OnePlus 8T, the power button gets pushed down. On a Google Pixel 3XL the power button and both volume keys get pushed down. On an Essentials PH-1, the power button and the volume down buttons get pushed down. On an Asus Zenfone 5Z, the power button and the volume down buttons get pushed down. Instead of wasting your money on this Celestron adapter, you should get an adapter that will actually work. Celestron actually offers a much better model: The Celeston NexYZ adapter (https://amazon.com/Celestron-3-Axis-Universal-Smartphone-Adapter/dp/B07D7V3B8M/). Yes, it is more expensive, but it is far superior in every aspect: 1) independent X,Y and Z fine tunable adjustment knobs, 2) easy spring loaded phone clasp, 3) it actually works, and 4) it won't reboot your phone.

Útil para celulares pequeños y medianos para los grandes mereceria más centímetros

Kvaliteta

Took a bit to figure out how to put it on but once done it works great. Just need a bit of nice weather to get outside to use. Highly recommend this attatchment. Makes viewing easier

Good

Good quality, not a great function to attach it to the lense, snd the auto remote although a great addition has little impact as the lense seems to mist up from lack of air around the lense
