Cellphone Adapter

  The Gigapenguin 15×52 Binoculars we tested came with a snap-on cellphone adapter that allows the user to take pictures with the phone and then remove the phone and the adapter quickly if they are about to be discovered. Spies would take pictures, remove the phone and adapter from the binoculars in one easy motion, and then send the pictures on to their private e-mail account to clear their phone.
   The large binocular lenses provide good low light vision and better pictures at a distance than smaller units. The box the binoculars came is lists seven uses. Bird watching is first on the list, then viewing wildlife, stargazing, hiking, sports, travel, and concerts. As always in real life, birders watch birds and spies use birding as cover. Spies may be spying on you and your activities as part of a business investigation, or for some other reason you may not be aware of.  
  “Stargazing” is a good excuse for being on the roof of a building some distance from a business or personal target. Spies “hiking” near a target use birding as cover and gather all the information they need for cover by membership in local birding groups. The pictures they take through their cell phones are immediately forwarded to their private e-mail accounts so the phones they have with them are empty of incriminating material and contain only pictures of birds. Perfect cover for spies, hard for victims to prove.
