I have done it a few times for fun with my iPhone 4s here's a couple of Saturn,Jupiter (can just make out 3 of her moons if you look closely) and moon. Setup was as in signature with the Hyperion zoom EP

Thanks Dave. Just messing around really. You can get adaptor cradles that clamp around focuser tube/eyepiece for iPhones. Those pics I did were done freehand and were very shaky as a result. I was thinking of getting one but never get around to doing it!
