2024 Digiscope adapter recommendations

[Khunter]

I've been using the On Glass adapter for about a month. I haven't used it for looking at critters yet, just for times at the range to record longer shots. It's a cheaper alternative to Ollin or Mag View. I don't like having the magnetic attachment on my phone case all the time, mostly because my phone no longer lays flat so it rocks slightly when I type. A phone case dedicated to just digiscoping would be a fix. On the plus side, the quick magnetic attach / detach design is handy.

But you are the cool kid when running a phone kit with Ollin adaptor on all the time.

Solution to lay flat is a stick on credit card holder also on the Ollin case, levels it right up and can have cash/cards handy, also serves as nonslip pad everywhere you set phone such as on truck console etc...

And yes I said 'running phone kit' as a joke because THAT SORT OF LINGO MAKES ME WANNA PUKE

No one using the ScopeCam?

Seems simple enough, but doesn’t index like Ollin. Like the idea of being able to put it on anything like my Binos if I’m close and don’t feel like getting my spotter out of my pack.

Ollin sounds like the way to go though

I like my phone scope. More affordable and similar in how easy it is to use. Yeah, it's bulky, but the extra coin I saved went towards points/tags. I throw my phone in the phone scope case for a hunt. Takes me about 23 seconds to change it back to my phone case. I have a neoprene cover on my spotter. Don't really like the idea of having a piece permanently on my eye piece or having the plastic cap banging around in the wind while I'm trying to glass. Don't get me wrong, if they were in at a similar price point I would of went with the ollin. Saving $100 seemed worth it to me as little as I use it. It's fun but when you have a decade of pictures that just sit on your iPhone I kind of stopped using it as much and just try and enjoy the hunt anymore.

i have the scope cam adapter. it works well enough, not quite as quick as the ollin, but it also doesn't need a special piece specific for your binos/spotter. i've had it for about three years now, and i don't plan on switching.

Mountain mag looks to check all the boxes for me personally. Might have to order one of those. I have a magview and ollin I will likely sell for a nice discount if anyone is interested. Both great systems for different preferences

I actually don't take that many photos with mine, but my mid-grade spotter is kinda picky with eye relief and the angled eyepiece can be uncomfortable in some situations, so I wind up doing a lot of glassing just looking at my phone screen instead of through the eyepiece.

Thanks for bringing this one to my attention, this looks pretty sweet

One more con for adapters that require a magnet on your phone case, it just got my phone flagged for additional screening by TSA. Not a big deal but never would have thought of that.

Same here. Simple, fits any phone, scope or bino. Don't need to buy custom accessories for each one you use. It just works.
