It should be emphasized that this adaptor only works with certain scopes, and
is only for the specific iPhone models Pat mentioned. It won't work with an
iPod Touch, for example (and those have a lousy camera compared to the iPhone
anyway.) That said, I'm always amazed at the quality of photos some people can
get with their phones... guess it's the operator, not the equipment (I speak
from bitter experience.)
