It's a 2 in 1 lens kit model, featuring a Super Wide Angle lens (ideal for landscape photography) and a 15x Macro Lens that can take your camera's performance to the next level in crafting breathtaking close-ups. Entirely made in heavy-duty solid aluminium, there's nothing to fear on this lens to consider it cheap or faulty, except perhaps, as it usually happens, for its lens clip as time goes by.
One thing I liked about this model is the protective layer of foam available on the screen side of the clip, as a way to prevent future scratching when setting the camera lens; however, due to its size, the case I paired my iPhone with (a Spigen Tough Armor TECH) had to be removed.
The Wide Angle Lens allows a wider FOV without casting any kind of vignetting effe ct to our photographs. The advantage? This lens proves to be ideal for family portraits, enthralling landscapes and any other kind of photograph that requires a little bit extra space than what your phone's lens can capture.
In the case of the Macro Lens, first of all, you need to remove the Wide Angle Lens to access it, which is as simply as unscrewing it from its position. You also need to keep in mind two things:
1) You cannot adjust the manual focus, therefore you need to move your phone closer to the subject.2) You will have a shallow DOF, meaning that the subject will be displayed with clear, crispy details whereas the background is going to get blurred.
Overall, this lens kit proves to be a good investment to make to improve the creative capacity you can reach with your smartphone camera. Keep also in mind that it does not only work for iPhones: many other phones, like some Samsung or LG models, can also fit this lens kit.
