I just got the Kowa smartphone adapter.
It comes with two rings that can be screwed on to the adapter plate. They have 55 mm and 41 mm diameter, the large one perfectly fits to my Swaro 25-50 eyepiece, the smaller one equally perfect to my Leica Ultravid HD 8x42. They have more adapter rings that can be bought seperately: http://www.kowaproducts.com/kowa-iphone-compatibility.pdf
I have a Samsung S5 mini phone, but Kowa does not sell one that fits this phone directly. So I bought one for Samsung S5 or S4. The metal plate of the adapter is simply clued on to a normal phone hardcase by strong two-sided adhesive tape. So I took off the hardcase (took a bit of force), and clued it on another hardcase fitting my phone. The tape kept sticking to the metal plate, so I didnt even need to use new tape.
Now everything fits well and it seems to work very well on both scope and bin.
I'll let you know more when I got some pics. But this adapter seems to be very versatile, fitting many scopes, bins and phones.
