I order a lot of stuff online. Heck, I’m not so sure I don’t single-handedly keep Amazon in the black. From clothing to outdoor gear; batteries to dog food; and everything in between.
As an avid outdoorsman, I love shopping for gear. However, pounding the aisles of big box outdoor stores no longer feels the same. Sure, I occasionally enjoy browsing but when I need a specific thing or two, I shop in a mission-like fashion. Today, I love having needed outdoor products delivered to my door. Perhaps Covid is to blame.
If that’s lazy, I’m guilty as charged.
Years ago, I was fascinated when I came across Phone Skope’s Builder Page. As a digiscoping enthusiast, there was something cool about ordering gear that elevated my outdoor success with a few clicks on my smartphone.
I still love digiscoping and continue to be a fan of Phone Skope’s easy and seamless way to build a smartphone digiscoping kit.
Why?
There are many reasons, but I’ll focus on three obvious ones.
Fast, Easy, and Seamless
Okay, I cheated, that’s already three. You can build a digiscoping kit in minutes by simply visiting Phone Skope’s Builder Page, choosing your optics and smartphone brand and model, and securely paying through their shopping cart. Phone Skope also offers great product and order support via both phone and chat. In 2-3 days, you’re connecting your smartphone camera to your optics with the best digiscoping adapter on the market.
Affordable
Most digiscoping kits on the market are universal in nature. While Phone Skope also offers a universal solution, the star of the show is their custom kits, tailormade for specific phones and optics. Most kits have price tags ranging from a mere $50-$90. That’s great value for something that will work for life.
Custom
Yeah, Phone Skope’s custom approach to building a digiscoping kit is still the best on the market. Made from nearly indestructible plastic, the adapter components fit your gear perfectly and don’t depend on magnets, screws, or knobs. They just fit, and do so in an ultra-tight manner. The operative word is custom; each kit is custom-crafted to perfectly fit your particular smartphone and optics.
Below is an idea of what to expect when navigating the Builder Page. Heads up, this is really simple!

You’re done. While you wait for delivery, plan where to start or continue your digiscoping journey. Whether in the backcountry, back forty, or backyard, you’ve got a rock-solid digiscoping kit that will last as long as your smartphone and optics do – and likely longer. Best of all, you’ve also got a custom kit that perfectly fits and connects your smartphone and optics of choice – and it all starts from your armchair.
