The magnifying power and premium optical elements in binoculars can make a great telephoto lens for digiscoping, and the Carson HookUpz Binocular Smartphone Adapterfrom Carson HookUpz Binocular Smartphone Adapteroffers a practical way to connect a smartphone camera to the eyepiece on one of a binocular's ocular tubes. Slip your phone into the holder, press the ring over the eyepiece (it doesn't matter which one – take your pick), and you're ready to capture images and video and share them via email, messaging or social media.

Two adapter rings allow the adapter to fit onto most binocular eyepieces with an outside diameter from 40-44mm (1.57-1.73"). The adapter's innovative clamping mechanism holds the smartphone securely, with the camera centered on the binocular eyepiece. In most cases, you will be able to keep your case on the phone when installed in the adapter, and the clamp holds the phone securely in position without marking or marring the screen or case.

Q: 7. Can someone post a picture on how the binoculars would attach to this adapter. I can't visualize because the interface on the binocs is perpendicular to the tripod head?

A: The bottom of the adapter has a screw hold for you to mount the adapter to a typical camera tripod, I must mentioned that this adapter only works for Celestron binoculars, because, at the front of the binocular, there is a cover that covering up a screw hold, that is where that screw you see in the picture of the adapter gets to screw in. You can see it in my attached photo.
