Pankoo 12x60 Monocular Telescope High Powered with Smartphone Adapter Tripod and Portable Bag, Larger Vision Monoculars for Adults with BAK4 Prism & FMC Lens, Suitable for Bird Watching Hiking Travel

I bought this last minute before a cruise to Alaska. It was amazing. I took picture from the ship of the glazier and the little icebergs floating. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to use. I connected my phone to it and zoomed in to a crystal clear picture. It is so worth the money.

I bought this as a gift for my husband. He uses it on nature walks to identify bird species and to see wildlife that is otherwise hard to view such as turtles swimming in a river. It is small enough to carry, easy to focus with one hand, has clear images and so far had been durable with the small knocks and bumps you would expect on a hike. We have not yet used the phone camera features.

As an option to my binoculars and telescope, my Pankoo monocular telescope is convenient for it's compact size and portability for travel, walks or other excursions when I want to view nature nature, sports, the skies, and other objects or events. It's extremely handy and provides exceptional magnification that is crystal clear! I greatly appreciate product is a complete package with a carrying case, tripod and smartphone adapter (both great for taking incredible photos or enjoying enhanced viewing), a lens cleaner and simple instructional manual. And the Hand Strap provides added stability for enjoying the awesome views. I highly recommend Pankoo for its high quality, affordability and superb viewing.

It is compact and handy and works well

We have reached that age where we find ourselves sudden interested in birdwatching. I purchased this for my husband for Christmas. He was very excited and when used simply as a monocular, it is great. Very sharp, easy to focus. All the stuff. Attaching and using the smartphone adapter takes some patience. Good thing my husband is an engineer. He re-engineered it and is having no issues now. I do recommend it for the price, but keep in mind, "engineer not included". You might need to borrow a neighbor's.
