I had my students taking surprisingly good shots by just holding their cell phone lenses to the eyepiece of the old monocular scopes. They were way more enthusiastic about doing that, and then editing their photos to add arrows and comments, than they were about drawing what they saw by hand (which would have been easier)

That's how I've been getting decent macro shots on the cheap - my phone and a jewelers lens! And boy is it surprising - I remember trying it the first time certain it wouldn't work and then having my mind blown.
