What should I expect from digiscoping with that excellent bino ? I am thinking to buy samsung s9.
 
You probably mean the Leica 8X32B; AFAIK there's no 7X32B.

For those who wonder what you're referring to: I understand digiscoping involves bolting a camera (or smartphone) to a telescope or binoculars to obtain a digital camera system with a very long lens.

What you can expect is that you'll be able to photograph objects really far away. You can also expect sub-par optical quality compared to a proper camera lens, but it may still be good enough depending on what your expectations are.

Btw, I sometimes do something similar with a microscope; I hold my smartphone to the eyepiece to capture illustrations for posting online. It's reasonably convenient; image quality is kind of poor, but for illustrations, it works well enough.
