12X50 IP68 Waterproof HD Monocular，Monoculars Telescope for Adults with Smartphone Holder & Tripod, BAK4 Prism & FMC Len for Bird Watching Hiking Hunting Camping Travelling, Black

Very good monocular for the price. I use it for nature and bird watching. It seems solid to handle to me. I have the smartphone holder that comes with it. The attached photo was taken at a distance of between 700 and 900 m. The result speaks for itself. For the price that can hardly be asked for observing nature and wildlife, he does his job very well. At night you can see if there is a light source on what you are looking at. I state that I wear glasses and that they are suitable for this. In short, I recommend it to people who do not want to invest too much in a monocular and at the same time want very good performance.

Hello everyone! Hope you enjoy your monocular life. I have some information for you today. This monocular isn't bad, but I was concerned about backlight flare. So I decided to install a hood. Let's finish. 54mm, folks! The 54mm fit perfectly! The body's rubber cover was moved slightly to reveal the screw hole at the top and a 54mm to 55mm step-up ring was fitted. (... It fits my case smoothly, but please do so at your own risk.) In my opinion, the flare seems to be much better and the sharpness of the image has improved. I would like to think that the effect was more than investing less than $10 and risking losing some portability. And what's more! You can use CPL filters and all sorts of other filters as many times as you like, and you can potentially attach a teleconversion lens to play with, although I doubt it will work properly. It's a dream come true... Uh? Am I the only one dreaming like this? In the meantime, I've uploaded a photo of an attached 55mm camera lens hood if you'd like to take a look. Also some cute birds. ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ My hobby is observing and photographing wild birds with monoculars and smartphones. Sometimes I use a tripod, but I prefer handheld when possible. I used Nikon 6×18ED but it was too dark. So I bought this one which uses a 50 diameter ED lens. The 50 diameter lens size was very effective for my purposes. Bright! It's bright! Unfortunately, the chromatic aberration was quite large and the effect of the ED lens was not as high as I expected, but maybe my expectations were too high. Or maybe the price is right. As you take darker images, the aberration becomes much less noticeable. It is still in the testing phase, but you can check it in the attached photo. I think it's a good value monocular for those who think this level of photography is sufficient. I'm also happy with the price. However, I plan to test it with the [Opticron dba vhd+ 10x42 monocular] or [VANGUARD VEO HD2 1042M] for another jump. What? Are you saying it's wiser to buy a good camera? Ha-ha-ha-ha! I used the Huawei P30 Pro. The video was recorded with the standard lens, and photos were taken with the 5x telephoto lens. (Standard lens is 500mm with digital zoom x 1.6, telephoto lens is 1620mm) Slow motion shooting is recommended as handheld video footage can be blurry. It's also useful to use a dot sight together, even if it's a cheap sight. It also makes it easier to spot wild birds if you're spotting them. Well, I wish you all a better monocular life!

Surprised by the characteristics in relation to the price. It's pretty sharp, the image is stable, the components seem to be of high quality, and it feels good in the hand.

We unpacked the 10-30x50 telescope and found everything as described. The hand tripod and the mobile phone holder are made of plastic. The very light tripod has a stable ball head and is sufficiently stable. It should, too, if you want to attach your cell phone and the holder to it. The table tripod alone is quite useful. The mobile phone holder is more of a gimmick that we would not use in practice. It takes a relatively long time before we had attached and aligned the mobile phone together with the holder on the telescope. The picture that you get on your cell phone is very difficult to focus on. Due to the distance between the optics, the image naturally has wide vignetting and can only be seen as a small circle. We have not yet been able to get a photo image like in the advertisement with a mobile phone holder on a telescope. As with all mounts of this type, the whole construction is very sensitive to touch. The telescope itself makes a good impression. It is robustly built and feels good in the hand. Settings run smoothly and evenly. Once positions have been set, they don't change so easily by themselves when you carry them around. The image sharpness is satisfactory in every zoom range. Two rubber caps are included to protect the optics. They fit their positions tightly. Conclusion: Robust and handy telescope. weatherproof (No rain has penetrated) Good optical properties. Sharpness and zoom settings work well.

The K&F Concept 10-30x50 HD monocular telescope arrives securely packaged. Everything smells pretty chemical, the smell seems to have spread from the bag to everything else. The monocular makes a handy, robust impression. The colors are muted, the surface is non-slip and the magnification settings are easy to use. The enlarged image is clear, although it feels slightly tinted. So it can be used as binoculars. The points of criticism refer to the use with the mobile phone. The tripod is valuable and stable, with a little patience you can find a stable combination with cell phone and monocular without the tripod tipping over. The mobile phone holder is made of plastic, when it is pulled out to adapt to the width of the mobile phone it squeaks and ratchets, the light padding doesn't help there either. The main problem is the interaction of holder, monocular and mobile phone. First you have to position the hole in the bracket over one of the camera lenses that are now available several times. Then the monocular is attached. However, since this has a weight of a good 350 grams, it pulls the holder away from the camera lens and the resulting gap means that you can no longer get a clean photo. So for a good result you have to stabilize the monocular with one hand and use the cell phone/the shutter release with the other. This takes time, patience and a steady hand. This is nothing for a quick snapshot. In addition, without a mobile phone camera zoom, you only get a small round section enlarged, you only get a full picture with zoom and then the photo quickly becomes shaky and blurred. For a meaningful use with the smartphone, a more stable mobile phone holder would be necessary, which can counteract the weight of the monocular. In any case, with a Samsung A 70, the results were disappointing.

This monocular works very well under the right conditions. A tripod is highly recommended if you want clear and stable footage. The monocular has a 1/4" screw hole for mounting. So far I'm very happy with what I've achieved with this device.

The monocular arrives well packaged and is well equipped for the actual purpose. I actually only use the monocular on the shooting range for distant shots. Of course, it can also be used for outdoor activities as recommended in the product description. Here are my positive impressions: ✅ compact ✅ high-quality workmanship ✅ robust ✅ non-slip, non-slip surface ✅ waterproof (has survived heavy rain without any problems) An IP standard is not listed ✅ adjustable eye cap to protect against light ✅ stable tripod ✅ carrying bag, carrying strap and cleaning cloth included ✅ very good resolution and zoom ability

In summary: Impressive for beginners and amateurs, easy to use. Pretty shaky without stabilization at this zoom. In detail: Compared to my outdated binoculars, I, as a layman, am impressed by the magnification and, above all, the zoom option. The sharpness can be adjusted very well and easily. I cannot measure the magnification power myself. At full zoom, however, it is difficult to hold the monocular freely in your hand - you should hang it up somewhere or use the tripod. The tripod is not particularly large or stable, so it only serves its purpose to a limited extent. A very nice feature is the holder for the smartphone: you clamp the device in the holder, align the opening with your smartphone camera and fix everything with an adjusting screw. Then the holder is clamped onto the telescope. I had to stabilize and hold my Pixel 6 here because it is relatively heavy and the construction does not hold securely. Depending on the camera, there is strong vignetting. Tip: If the smartphone camera has an optical zoom switch to zoom, I was able to almost completely remove the vignetting. It takes a bit of practice to get a sharp, shake-free image. Then you can certainly land one or the other snapshot. Alternative to the camera with telephoto zoom? - No way. A nice feature and good for the occasional snapshot in the garden? - Surely.

the telescope is nice and small and light, so it fits in any backpack or jacket pocket. The device itself is nice and stable, feels good in the hand and with a little practice it can be adjusted quickly so that you see what you want to see. In general, the telescope is of course in the lower price segment and of course you can get much better ones ... but also at a much higher price for occasional observers, but this telescope is definitely recommended!

Very cool article. Clarity is incredible. Very strong, well balanced and feels comfortable in the hand. I love that the eye relief can be adjusted if you wear glasses so you can wear them. Very powerful scope and with phone camera attached you can zoom in even more. The clarity is amazing. No fogging. I've used it in the rain and all weather. No problems at all. I have had many scopes in the past, this is by far the best I have ever had. I researched many monoculars before purchasing this one. I definitely made the right choice. I've used this all summer. I love it, have fun. I had a small imperfection on the larger lens. I contacted the seller less than 2 days later and I was sent a replacement. No questions were asked. They said to keep the original number, no need to send it back. Great seller. When I first contacted the seller, I received a response in a very short time. I've had several conversations via email. Alan from the service team, great guy btw, was incredibly helpful. Look no further. This is the monocular you want. Once again you can't beat it, great customer service (literally the best I've ever dealt with) and of course the monocular is amazing.
