Works with iphone 4/4s/5, and I'm assuming 5s. Here are the links to the items:

The fit is a little loose on the eye piece but a thin layer of gorilla tape around the eyepiece made it perfectly snug. The focus works flawlessly and between the scope's focus and zoom, and the phone's focus and zoom, it makes for a great image.
I had this idea to help relieve the eye fatigue I get after spotting someone for a while - the eye relief on spotters under a few hundred bucks is generally not the best. It works great!
I got one off amazon a few years back for like $50. You don't need a real expensive one unless you are shooting real long range or abuse.
Edit: Just checked and I actually paid $70. It's $79 now but here is a link... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003N7NQOY/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I use this one around 100 and it works really well.

Nice, relevant username.
But seriously, if the farthest you're going to shoot/observe rounds is 200 yds, you can get away with spending way less than $500 right here.
I know, the glass ain't great; hell, it ain't even good, but you'll be able to see your rounds at two hundred. Happy shooting!
