iScope

[KahrMan]

One of the coolest things I saw at the NWTF vendor show was the iScope booth.  This adapter allows you to mount your iphone or other smartphone to your scope, spotting scope or binoculars.  Download their app, .99Cents, and use your phones screen as your viewfinder.  This makes it really easy to film your hunt or take pics.  Since you phones camera is looking thru the scope you see the crosshairs on your screen and that is how you aim.  

 

 

 

Check out their site.  It is a pretty cool product.

Watch the video with Jeff Foxworthy.  It shows all the uses of the iscope.

I seen that as well. It is really cool.

I was waiting for you to post this. I though it was really cool as well especially when I actually saw it in use. Would be great for filming hunts solo, however recoil would probably ruin the kill shot. I wasn't too impressed with the price, but that may come down over time.

It was nice meeting you Neil.  It is not exactly cheap but it would be pretty useful, especially for solo hunts.

 

I think it would make using a spotting scope a lot easier.

it was good meeting you as well, Glad you came by the booth.

 

I never thought about using it on a spotting scope, now that would be really usefull.

Seems like recoil could be a little bit harsh on the phone?

I watched the video on their website, Id say its no worse than dropping it in a protective case (which I do often) and actually the video wasnt to bad after recoil, just depends on the gun.  I might not strap it to a .50BMG, but your average hunting caliber, for a shot or two shouldnt hurt.
