K&F CONCEPT 8-32X50 Zoom Monocular with Cell Phone Holder, Monocular for Adults -BAK4 Prism and FMC Lens - IP66 Waterproof - Great for Birdwatching, Hiking, Hunting, Camping, Traveling, Black

Excellent quality and build , easy to use.

Great value for money and decent glass too.

I wanted something to use at x20 magnification or less, and a wider field of view than usual, on a tripod. This delivers. More generally I’m underwhelmed but have to remember the very good price. The good points - it looks and feels weIl made, smooth controls, high quality mouldings. Optically, its not sharp at both centre and edge of picture. If you set up for sharp focus at full magnification but then change the magnification you have to refocus, something I’m not used to. I’m mostly comparing this monocular against my inexpensive 20-60x60 SVBONY, which cost me £60 and has a sharper image but poorer field of view. Of course I did not expect it to compare with my Canon and Leupold binoculars which are in a different league on image quality but cost vastly more. For £35 its ok, feels solid, the field of view really is good, very usefully wider than the SVBONY with both used at x20.

Very good buy. Really clear image and in a smart case

Not noticing any purple fringing, but is that my old eyes! Bought for use at sporting events, mainly cricket/golf with occasional music venues. I think the music venues are not going to happen unless it’s an outdoor event during the day in bright sunshine because this monocular has very little low light ability. Pros - Reasonable price - reasonable build quality - reasonably lightweight - reasonably good optics at the price point - Case is adequate - Clarity is okay - Supplied mini tripod is okay if sitting in a hide with a high shelf otherwise not much use. Cons - Tripod fixing point position on the barrel limits choice of fixing, would cost almost as much for a decent ball mount to go on a monopod as you paid for the item itself - supplied hand strap is less than ideal - mobile phone attachment is really only for a small smartphone and even then difficult to get it to stay in place over the lens so I’d not bother with it - Zoom range appears to be either on or off at the top end and to be honest unless it’s mounted on a tripod/monopod unusable by hand for longer than a minute or so, well my hands anyway. Otherwise for the money and the ability to pop it in one’s pocket it’s not that bad.

Recently brought this lens to enhance my safari/wildlife photos while in Uganda! At first it took some time to get use to it, and my hand was not steady, and I struggled to see the phone screen due to where I was angling the lens for the animal shot, so not always a crisp focus, but due to nature of my trip I couldn't use the tripod, which im sure would have help a lot... also was never sure which lens to use on my phone (samsung 24)! However I totally recommend if you are an amateur photography who just wants some higher quality holiday photos! Backpacking so tight on space and can't afford the crazy prices of a quality DLR and lens!

Brilliant, lightweight so comfortable to handle, lens quality is good obviously when you increase magnification you will need to use a tripod but overall excellent item.

Really hard to align to iPhone 15 camera. So fiddly that I ended up returning it

Ho acquistato questo monocolo senza troppe aspettative, e con già la certezza del reso. visto il prezzo (47€) mi aspettavo una qualità mediocre, beh mi son dovuto ricredere. la qualità costruttiva è conforme al prezzo, ma la qualità ottica, che è poi quello che conta, è a mio parere ottima. ingrandimento progressivo da 8 a 32 molto fluido e ottimamente posizionato il cursore, stessa ottima fluidità per il cursore della messa a fuoco, molto veloce e anche di una buona precisione. al minimo ingrandiento è tranquillamente gestibile a mano libera, poi andando oltre, e specie al massimo, un'appoggio è sempre consigliato, poi tanto dipende anche dalla fermezza della mano. arriva con in dotazione una buona custodia, un laccetto sottile da polso, un cintino sempre da polso ma di tipo fotografico, un piccolo treppiede, ben fatto e solido, e infine un'adattatore per smartphone. allora io ho preso questo monocolo per l'uso a mano libera nei miei trekking montani, ma visto che era compreso, anche se non credo che lo userò mai, ho voluto provare questo adattatore per smartphone, a mio parere si può tirar fuori scatti interessanti, anche se data la preparazione, non è da considerare per l'uso "al volo" ma da appostamento, a riguardo ho messo 3 foto, una con il telefono senza ingrandimenti, la seconda con il telefono montato sul monocolo al minimo ingrandimento, e la terza al massimo ingrandimento. giudizio complessivo personale ottimo, a quella cifra è impossibile avere di meglio.

Pratique et vite pris en main pour les promenades

The monocular telescope does exactly what I bought it for. Good clean image and easy to focus.

Excellent, smooth zoom, clear lens, all metal housing.

You don’t need to exhaust yourself researching. 8-32x50 is best there is . Easy to zoom and focus . 8 is very wide view and the 32 zoom gives too much detail.
