Honestly I prefer it. Check out one of the most recent videos - I compare Apexel Macro with Sandmarc Macro and iPhone 13 Pro Macro Mode - to see comparisons. I hope this helps!
All that I do is attach the lens to the phone with the BeastCage from BeastGrip and use the BeastCam Pro Camera app. If you're interested in mobile macro photography tips, check out this video - th-cam.com/video/BZ23o1oVH_I/w-d-xo.html
Great question. The clip that I got does not, but I got this lens two years ago. I would expect that the company would update their product to be more usable with newer devices. Hope this helps!!
@@photoswithphones Thanks a lot! I got this same lens and it did not sit well on Iphone 15 pro max with the clip. It sits with an angle and ruins the shot. So I bought a phone case with 17mm lens mountings on aliexpress. Now it's working great. I hope it helps other people too, highly recommend a case.
yes. It's designed to work with the primary camera lens. Phone with macro just have a small macro-lens built in. Not as powerful as this though because the they are very limited in the physical size
‼️‼️‼️How far away was your phone from the subject??? Thinking of buying for videography. Currently use sandmarc, but I have to hold my phone to close while I’m recording.
The Apexel working distance is MUCH better. I honestly prefer it to the sandmarc and moment macro. Checkout the recent video I did comparing iphone macro mode, Apexel macro, and the sandmarc macro!
I want to take pictures of my wife who loves me taking her picture wherever we go ..do I want to take some great pics.for this which lens do you recommend
How close you need to be to subject with this APEXEL lens ? You never show or measure that, and it is said it is tele-macro, so have to be further away, which will be great if true. My other APEXEL force me to be 1/2 inch away, which is too close for any live subject (insect or else). Can this be like 5+ inches ? Please let us know this important info in comments
Jeff - great question. The Apexel Macro should be the perfect option for 6" scrub figures. You may not get the whole action figure into a single shot but you'll get around 1/2 plus lots of details.
Looks like you’re in colonial Williamsburg…. That’s where I live (I’m Mascon Leather here on TH-cam). Great video, by the way! Edit- heard just after I commented…. It is Colonial wmbg! 🤘
@@photoswithphones Yeap, I decided to buy my first macro lens, but I don't know which one should I buy? All of the macro lens from Apexel looks so similar... :p

your voice sounds much better! tell us about the mic!
Congratulatios excellent video!
Thanks!
It only works if you have no case on... This clip thingy doesnt sit well on my Galaxy s22 ultra, and I cant get anything into focus
I didn’t love the clip either. My recommendation is the beast grip pro lens adapter as you’ll be able to mount the lens to any phone.
@@photoswithphones Bruh, that thing cost 3 times more than that lens 💀
How does this lens compare to the moment and sandmarc, in your unsponsored opinion 🤔???

Do you think the clip might sit well on the iphone14 pro max or 15 pro max models? You know the cameras are bulky. Thanks for the video by the way.

Want us to test more Apexel lenses? Which ones are you most interested in? How about other brands?
Apexel telephoto 👌🏼
@@franciscopinon7678 it's on the list my friend. I've been in contact with the company and I think that's the one they're sending next🤘🤙
Wide angle and tele.
Sirui Mc-02 Macro Lens 10X with Clip
Sirui lenses are on our radar. We plan to test them once we're finished testing all the lenses from Sandmarc and BeastGrip
What is the standoff distance from lens to subject
Wide - 2" to 3.25"
Tele - 4.5" to 5.75"
which camera app you are using
Shariar - great question. I use the BeastCam Pro Camera App. I've made multiple videos about it in the past. I hope this helps!
My phone doesn't have macro, will it still works?
yes. It's designed to work with the primary camera lens. Phone with macro just have a small macro-lens built in. Not as powerful as this though because the they are very limited in the physical size

is the 100mm macro good for 6" action figure photography?

@@photoswithphones thank you so much.. :)

Hi, I have an iPhone 11 Pro. Is it worth it to buy Apexel Macro Lens?
Absolutely. Espcially if it's your first smartphone macro lens, it's a fantastic option.
