The Universal Mobile Phone Telescopic Lens is a fancy little mobile phone accessory that lets you add optical zoom functionality to your phone’s camera. It comes with a flexible adapter to mount a 7×18 telescope that can be easily adapted to be used on most mobile phones. With this telescope, you can zoom in to focus on distant objects quite clearly. This allows you to easily create much higher quality photographs.
You'll notice that with the telescope fitted on the Nokia N95-1, it actually looks like something from a Hitman Game!
Contrary to my expectations, setting up the lens on the phone was pretty easy. In minutes of receiving the lens, I was able get it all set-up and ready to shoot.
Zooming is easily done with manipulation of the lens and focussing is just as simple – you need not worry if the image isn’t perfect, as the in-built AutoFocus of your camera phone will set it right. The lens is durable and is excellent bang for buck – I mean at 15 pounds it is quite a steal.
