Two Decent Pictures Through UVHD+ w/iPhone 7 Plus - 2X Lens (1 Viewer)

Effective Digi-Binning Through UVHD+ w/iPhone 7 Plus - 2X Lens

So, I've had pretty good success just putting my iPhone behind my UVHD+.

What are the optical principles I need to know to continue to get good or better photos? Can the newer higher power second lens of the iPhone 7 Plus be used successfully?

Thanks

Picture one, African penguins, Robbin Island South Africa: 8X42 UVHD + with iPhone 7 Plus cropped - lower power lens taken in to the sun

Picture two, African Fish Eagle, Rwanda: 7X42 UVHD+ with iPhone 6 Plus not cropped

Would be interesting to try if this works. The higher focal length of that second lens should give a higher magnification of your bin+phone setup. Are your photos uncropped? Then you don't seem to have problems with vignetting, but if you have (e.g. on a scope), the higher focal lenght should reduce the vignetting.
