Moment’s New Phone Lenses Will Make Your Digital Camera Obsolete

With most phones now having an ultra-wide and/or telephoto lens, I thought Moment had given up on making its excellent mobile lenses for iPhone and Android, but I was wrong. The creator-focused brand has announced a new “T-Series” collection of lenses to take your smartphone photography and videography to the next level.

Like the old V2 M-series lenses for smartphones, the T-Series comes in different focal lengths. There’s the classic 18mm “wide” lens that fits more in a frame, a 14mm for a fisheye-like POV, a 58mm telephoto, a 10x macro, and two tyles of anamorphic lenses (1.55x and 1.33x). You can even attach a filter to the telphoto’s threaded mounting ring.

The T-Series lenses are bigger than any screw-on lenses that Moment has ever made for phones. That makes the lenses less portable, but should also mean improved image quality. Moment says the new lenses support larger camera phone sensors and has “25% more glass, another element, and a larger bayonet interface we can support way more phones... even into the future.”

I love my mirrorless digital cameras but I also love shooting with smartphones and mobile lenses. Back in 2017, I went to Japan for the very first…

The best lenses for iPhone and Android phones in 2022: add-on phone lenses

The best lenses for iPhone and Android phones can radically transform your smartphone photography. While smartphone camera arrays are getting better and better, there are still certain things beyond their physical limitations, and a clip-on lens, or even better, a full clip-on lens kit, can open up new shooting possibilities like macro, fisheye, and telephoto.

While the best camera phones now have multi-camera arrays that include ultra-wide, standard, and telephoto lenses, it's the main camera that has the best sensor, and using an add-on lens with this may give better results than your phone's secondary cameras.

Add-on lenses are even more useful if you've picked up one of the best budget camera phones, as the camera array may be a fairly basic type, without the multiple lens options that tend to come on fancier, newer phones. You can pick up multiple clip-on lenses as a kit, or just shop for ones that conform to…

µChart optic test card lets you check your phone camera, lenses, and other optics

If you are interested in testing your phone camera lenses and optics, you may be interested in a new testing card name, the µChart. Created by the team responsible for the iMicro Q range of microscope lenses that transform your phone into a high powered microscope. The unique testing card offers a quality micro-Chart with fine patterns tests the resolution of your camera, lenses, phone, and other optical equipment.

Two different µCharts are available depending on your needs µChart12233 and µChart1951 and both comply with iso 12233 or US military test protocol says its creators. The cards are suitable for testing close-up lenses with larger magnification as well as smaller phone cameras. “µChart12233 is ten times smaller than a standard ISO12233 test chart and has a 1:1 ratio to a full-frame camera“. Early bird pledges are now available for the creative project from roughly $15 or £13 (depending on current exchange rates).

“When we test our eye’s vision, we see a chart from a distance. So, when we test a lens and camera, a dedicated chart is necessary; if we want to test the camera and lens with a short focal length or larger magnification…
