Great lens for your smartphone

First of all, please note that this is macro photography only. Other kit options are available including wide angle and telephoto. This kit is well packed in a plastic case. The clamp is strong and holds the lens well. I use it on the iPhone X, but I also tried it on the iPhone 6 Plus. I align the clip so that it attaches to the phone so that it doesn't move. Once in place, it stays there pretty well. I found that when the camera is open, it obscures the camera icon on the screen and closes a control. Sometimes it cost me a photo, but it's no big deal. The whole set fits in your pocket and is easy to carry. There are two lenses in this kit. Both are 12x, so you have a 24x image with both. You'll get some vignetting through the lens, but if you use the screen zoom it will take care of that. Don't get too close or it will stop working. You need to get close enough to the subject, especially in 24X mode. The picture quality is pretty good. Does it fit the expensive macro lens of a full-frame DSLR? No, but it's inexpensive and the picture quality is better than acceptable. As with all macro lenses, any movement of the camera or subject will result in blurring. If a tripod is not available or cannot be used, try leaning on something solid to reduce movement. If you're using a tripod, it may be worth getting a remote shutter release. Another problem with any macro lens is that the depth of field is pretty shallow. You can record videos with these lenses. Pros: Small and easy to carry. Good picture quality. Very interesting to use. Inexpensive. Disadvantages: small and easily lost. Sting or bite I definitely recommend this lens set Enjoy
