Has anyone used the Moment 58mm Telephoto lens on their smart phone for reef tank pictures? Just wondering if it would work well or not. Thanks!

Sorry, not me. I rarely use my phone for tank photos.

No worries I was just curious

haven't tried i, looks neat but again would rather have less additional glass in front to of my camera as there is no way a 90 usd quality glass won't degrade pics too much.

Thanks! I figured I would give it a try since I’m just looking to take some pictures for fun. It shows up today so when I get it set up I will post a few pics and I’ll let everyone know how I like it.

So the lens came in and I took a few photos while practicing. Thoughts? Opinions? Critiques?

Great pics. I am surprised they are so good with phone and attached lens.

Those are great shots! I’m looking at getting my self the same lenses, how do you like them? Did you use one of their filters for those shots?

Thanks! I like it a lot. I don’t use any extra filters but I do use their app and then do some post-processing in darkroom. Overall it’s a quality lens that I feel gives me images one step above the native iPhone lens.
