To view with your device's camera

1. Open the camera app on your phone or tablet.


2. Position the rounded end of the Stanhope over your device’s camera lens.


3. Shift your Stanhope around a little until you find the best angle for viewing your image.

For best results

• Avoid covering the Stanhope’s flat end with your fingers.


• If it has one, use your device’s front-facing camera. This will make it easier to position your Stanhope (but bear in mind the image will be reversed).

• An added advantage of using the front-facing camera is that you can place your phone flat on a table.
