Pankoo 12X50 High-Powered Monocular Telescope for Adults

Tammy: We bought this for our Dad who lives in a condo on the river. He loves to sit in his recliner and check out the boats going up and down the Caloosahatchee River. He uses it daily. Likes the size, weight, visibility and steadiness it provides. Keeps the old guy happy.

John W. Hill: I didn't really expect much from this but the quality is amazing. Clear, crisp images from the telescope that works great with my Samsung phone cam. Then add the the camera's electronic zoom and you can see excellent images quite far for photos. It's light and portable; ready to take anywhere! Cons: the 6" high tripod is pathetic and useless. I threw it out and use a real camera tripod The manufacturer needs to include a small nylon carrying. OMG I just happed to have one lying around from I don't remember what, but it's perfect for carrying the telescope and the phone mount. Oh last con. The caps are fairly snug but the eye piece one does pop off too easily. The telescope obviously can be used too without the phone for quickly identifying things in the distance like wildlife if necessary! Buy this, you can't go wrong. Just find a small carrying case. It's a must for ease of transport.

MarshallOT614: This is a perfect little monocular for your pocket. We've already used it to watch whales from shore and to watch people scale clif sides. It fits perfectly in our back pocket or the drink pocket of our backpack. Very clear and easy to use.

Good for looking at birds and views from a mountain top.

DanielDaniel: I got this monocular package for a few days and test it intensively. Got a pretty satisfactory result. For the price, I didn't have a very high expectation first. The monocular itself is pretty well build. Strong and lightweight, not flimsy at all. The optic got an ed coating but doesn't look multicoated. The image is a pretty shape at the center, but some fall off at the edge, but no visible vignette (darker edge). The 50mm give you a good brightness. The shortfall for this monocular is getting a flat contract, as a result, lowers the saturation in color. This is expected for a lower price optical product due to coating. Other than that it got a pretty nice image. Check out the raw image that I shot with my iPhone at 2x to 3x magnification.
The phone adaptor is pretty easy to install. usually take me just two minutes to set up. The little tripod that comes with the package is a bit too small. It works ok with the monocular carefully. and work ok with the phone alone. Somehow it is not balanced while you use the phone attached with the monocular. The cleaning cloth and the stripe is a plus for the value.
Overall this package got the job done. Good for beginners or kids who...
