The media could not be loaded.  ▼△▼2022/04/01 Postscript.▼△▼Hey there!　Hope you are enjoying your monocular life.I have a bit of information for you today.This monocular is not bad, but I was concerned about flare when backlit.So I decided to install a hood.Let's conclude.54mm, guys!　The 54mm fit perfectly!The rubber covering the body was shifted slightly to expose the screw hole at the tip, and a step-up ring from 54mm to 55mm was attached. (......It fit smoothly in my case, but please do so at your own risk.)In my opinion, the flare seems to be much better and the sharpness of the image has improved.　I would like to think that the effect was more than the investment of less than 10$ and the risk of losing some portability.And what's more!You can use CPL filters and all sorts of other filters as much as you want, and you might be able to attach a tele conversion lens to play with it, although I doubt it will work properly.　It's a dream come true. ......Eh? Am I the only one who dreams like that?In the meantime, I have uploaded a photo of a 55mm camera lens hood attached, if you would like to take a look. Also, some cute birds.▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼△▼My hobby is observing and photographing wild birds with monoculars and smartphones.　Sometimes I use a tripod, but I prefer handheld if possible.　I was using Nikon 6×18ED but it was too dark.　So I bought this one, which uses an ED lens with a 50-diameter.The size of the 50-diameter lens was very effective for my purposes.　Bright! It's bright!Unfortunately, the chromatic aberration was quite large and the effect of the ED lens was not as high as I had expected, but perhaps my expectations were too high.　Or maybe the price is right.If you take darker pictures, the aberration becomes much less noticeable.It's still in the testing stage, but you can check it out in the attached photo.I think it is a good value monocular for those who think that this level of photography is sufficient.I am also satisfied with the price. 　However, I am planning to test it with the [Opticron dba vhd+ 10x42 monocular] or [VANGUARD VEO HD2 1042M] for a further leap. What?　Are you saying it's smarter to buy a good camera? 　Ha-ha-ha-ha!I used the Huawei P30 Pro.Video was taken with the standard lens, and photos were taken with the 5x telephoto lens. (Standard lens is 500mm with digital zoom x 1.6, telephoto lens is 1620mm)Slow motion shooting is recommended since handheld video shooting can be blurry.Also, it is useful to use a dot sight together, even if it is a cheap one.　It also makes it easier to find wild birds when observing them.Well, wishing you all a better monocular life!

We love walking in the country and this monocular is powerful enough to bring the birds to us without being too heavy. Far better than our big, clumsy binoculars since you don’t need to mess with two eyepieces. Simple, one hand focus knob is ingenious and well designed. The phone-camera feature is a little clumsy but it works.The optics are remarkably good. Being glass, they add a little weight, but well worth the few extra ounces.

First thing I noticed was no smart phone adapter in the package I went back and looked at all images and description and it did say smart phone adapter included however not a big problem because I probably wouldn't of used it anyway but I want others to know who would use an adapter I'm not the first one to say it's missing in the packaging.I didn't get a chance to use it yet so it's hard to fairly rate it but it seems decent for price.

I planned to use this on a trip next week to take distant photos through my phone. The description said a smartphone adapter would be included but it was not. Since there's no way to get the adapter sent befor I travel, Im sending the scope back

I’m a photographer, and thus bought the monocular to use with my iPhone 8 Plus. Using the supplied camera mount; I'm able to take high quality pictures of distant stationary objects. It's very difficult to use the monocular to photograph moving objects, such as birds, but that's to be expected. Unlike when using a regular camera, since the combination of the phone & mount are somewhat awkward, it's not as easy to photograph wildlife that doesn't stay in one place for at least half a minute or so. I had hoped to be able to photograph birds, but find that as soon as I'm ready to take the picture, they fly away. Of course, if you have a bird feeder, it will be a lot easier than attempting to photograph birds in the wild. With that said, I'm giving this monocular a rating of 5 stars, as I feel that it has the capability of rendering excellent photographs & is superb when used for viewing purposes alone.

This Monocular is OK, but not prize. The advert builds it up to be more than what I got from it.I'm comparing it to an old pair of Bushnell (12x50) binoculars, that I have.The Gosky is not as clear as the Bushnell by just a little. This was disappointing. The Ultra HD, and the Prism thing must be for sales pitch only. The case/bag it came with is good to have, but does not allow for the flap to snugly fit over, and stick to the Velcro. The bag is not deep enough.It does have some good points though. One, is that because it is smaller than binoculars, it is easier to carry. It is also easy to focus. It has two caps to cover both ends to protect the lens. They are easy enough to remove and replace while using. The eye piece feels and acts nice. The eye piece can be rotated to three positions to accommodate for poor eye sight and glasses. The handy strap it comes with can keep you from dropping it while viewing the world. The bag has a loop on the back to attach to your belt, or backpack.Bottom line: If you are torn between this Gosky and a pair of binoculars... go with the binoculars.

Monocular with phone fitting has been great for taking distance photos with my iPhone. Image is fantastic, HD and Monocular is easy to use. Phone fitting works well with my iPhone 12 and works well on a tripod. Highly recommended product - couldn't have asked for anything more in a monocular.

We love this Monocular. First it's very lightweight- so your arms & hands don't get tired from holding it. 2nd- what a great view- the lenses makes everything so clear- couldn't ask for more. Third- It's so easy to focus in and see how sharp the object is. I love this & would give it a 10 STAR rating if I could!

Je suis très contente vois bien comme décrit

Great product.

Très satisfait de cet achat, l'image est nette et sans aberration chromatique (contrairement aux modèles premier prix). C'est plus lumineux que ce qu'on obtiendrait avec des jumelles d'un poids équivalent. Cependant attention ce n'est pas du tout un monoculaire de vision nocturne, il n'y a aucune amplification.La construction semble solide, on verra sur le terrain pendant les vacances, je compte l'utiliser en mer (s'il y a un souci je viendrai modifier mon avis).Le grossissement convient parfaitement pour observer les oiseaux ou les mammifères marins par exemple. De toute manière c'est le maximum utilisable à main levée, au delà de 12x il est impératif d'utiliser un trépied car il y aurait trop de tremblement.

Habe das Gosky 12x50ED Mono sehr schnell erhalten. Bin sehr begeistert von der hochwertigen Qualität. Sehr lichtstarkes Objektiv und super helles klares und scharfes Bild. Minimale Entfernung ist 1,6 Meter zum scharf stellen des Fokus . Ideal um Insekten und andere Kleintiere in der Nähe zu beobachten. Auch in der Dämmerung ist es ideal da es das Bild um einiges heller erscheinen lässt. Ein Stativ ist leider nicht enthalten,dafür aber ein stabiler Handyhalter.Habe mein iPhone 6 Plus am Gosky mit Stativ getestet und bin begeistert von den Aufnahmen. Sehr gute Deteils,Kontast, Helligkeit und Randschärfe. Einfach Top dieses Teil.

The monocular works well. Leaning against something solid helps with image stability. I haven't had any success getting a clear image using the mobile phone attachment with my iPhone XS, though.
