Securely attaches a mobile phone to microscopes

The improvement to the cameras in mobile phones in recent years means that now very acceptable images can be obtained. The principal on-line market places have many competing devices designed to make this possible for a minimal outlay. Most, if not all, hold the phone in some way and then attempt to clamp the whole unit onto the outside of the microscope eyepiece with a variety of clips and screws. At best the attaching process is awkward and at worst almost impossible without the assistance of another pair of hands

However, once the scaffolding is in place there are potential optical problems. Eyepieces were never constructed with a view to having a camera placed right next to them consequently, depending on the individual eyepiece, it is not uncommon to have optical aberrations in the recorded image.

The Brunel Phonelink addresses these issues:

The phone is held in place by a spring loaded clamp - no screws
Positioning the phone camera over the Phonelink lens uses a single pivoting arm that clamps in place
The Phonelink has its own optical system base on our Unilink (which we have sold for many years) which incorporates a photoeyepiece specifically designed for camera imaging.
The Unilink element replaces the eyepiece of the microscope and is clamped onto the eyetube itself which greatly improves the stability of the entire system.
The Phonelink will fit monocular, binocular and even trinocular microscopes both compound and stereomicroscope.
Will work with single or multiple camera lens phones.
