Clip on Cell Phone Telephoto lens?

[Rusty Heap]

Wife likes to go hiking and wants a clip on telephoto lens zoom for her cell phone

We've bought 2, in the $30-40 price range and the "performance" is sub par by far. blurry images and crappy optics.

While I really don't care about budget, there has to be a decent little small clip on hiking lens for cell phones?




any luck for for you?

I've seen ads for those and thought it sounded to good be to true.

I have an old pair of binoculars. I put the phone camera lens up to one side and snap pictures of the moon with it sometimes.

Works ok for what it is. The smaller units don't take up that much room.

I have a cell-phone holder for my Celestron 80 spotting scope.
Very difficult to get it attached just right...but then it works ok.
