Great video! Extremely helpful. Debating wether or not to buy some moment lenses for my iPhone and this just sold me. But I’ll probably wait for the iPhone this September. Thanks!

[@seanmsn]

Excellent review. Would love you to review the Sandmarc lenses if possible.

[@CameronBrooks]

Yessss it is .. the compression artifacts on the normal ultra wide were driving me nuts

[@lalhmingmawiaralte3968]

Always worth watching your review whatsoever the topic may be 🔥🔥❤️❤️

[@David_Addison]

I appreciate that! 😍

[@sackk94]

Thanks for the honest review, am buying one of those thats for sure

[@WillNewcomb]

Thanks. I don’t use the Ultra wide lens on my iPhone 12pm much, and I really don’t want other things to attach. I abandoned that mode when I sold my Olympus OM1N.

[@bkrsdzn-vd1iw]

Nice Informative video. I like your style.. but your color grading is INSANE!!!! Teach me!!

[@Photo-Design-Studio]

Great video thanks

[@sushiluver844]

Can you please do a short comparisons video on iphone 13 pro with moment wide lens vs native wide and ultra wide at 18 mm

[@eden20111]

Can this be mounted to the standard lens on the iPhone?

[@ChickenJoe2920]

I can’t believe this was 4 days ago… dead thought it was like years ago but thanks for the video brotha… really solid review‼️‼️ one thing I’m not understanding well is the ISO, shutter speed, and other stuff like knowing what settings to do when shooting in manual…. If you could explain these to someone new and maybe explain it like you’re talking to an 8 year old, then it’ll help me a ton cuz I really enjoy the feeling of taking a portrait of someone and seeing them smile immediately after.

[@David_Addison]

Hi, I have multiple videos on how to shoot in RAW using manual settings with your phone.

[@blindness2sight]

Hi I have the moment 18mm for my iPhone 13 Pro, did you experience issues with your ultra wide camera shifting focus away from the wide camera with the lens attached? I can’t figure out how to fix this. Hopefully I’m making sense.

[@shot2x]

where u bought them?

[@unboxingreviewvlog7009]

KINDLY REPLY
Which *Lens* is best for makeup studio videography(closeup shoot) using an android phone?
Thank you

[@ArminHirmer]

right to the point. the ultra wide on the iPhone 12 Pro plus is not really that good, so putting this one on the main lens, should bring some good results.

[@eden20111]

Yes, because I noticed the video quality lowers when you put it in wide mode

[@AskAWalker]

Should cancel my 18mm order since I just purchased the iPhone 15 Pro?

[@GregMcMillan]

I’m going to be the party pooper here but I found putting the Moment Wide on my iPhone 12 Pro Max Wide Camera didn’t give me the sharpest image. On my XS Max? Yes, it was pretty decent, but the lenses on the 12PM have changed since the XS Max where the Moment lenses haven’t. I see this in the Macro too. With the diffuser on, I see the edge of the diffuser in the corners of the image, but not when it’s on the XS Max. Obviously the 12PM has a wider field of view in the Wide Camera. So, in the end of it all, I sold my Moment Wide and Tele lenses because I just wasn’t happy with the image quality.

[@David_Addison]

Thanks for the feedback Greg! 👍 Not pooping any party, I love the facts.

[@andrewchristian3017]

Yeah I’m having that issue with my telephoto once I add any filters. I get Vignetting. When I screw it on without filter or ND. I don’t get Vignetting. But I want to use my telephoto with ND or any filters. So I will have to return mine as well. Also mine was apexal so I was thinking of buying a better brand and maybe I won’t get Vignetting when I add filters or ND

[@romainprovost7164]

For me all the Moment optics are disappointing because the optical quality is degraded when used. Yes, we gain in versatility with it, but yes, we lose in quality. And I find that it is absolutely not worth the price.
