The fisheye has that annoying ball-shape with black corners and doesn't focus properly, and the macro is so strong that you basically have to put your phone directly on top of whatever you're photographing so that the lens actually TOUCHES it...<br />Maybe I'll just buy this new set for myself and give the old one to my kid niece..Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06324965716147044985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-29359837808473205352017-01-05T03:39:40.473-05:002017-01-05T03:39:40.473-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06324965716147044985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-17166426272669475582017-01-04T23:33:40.282-05:002017-01-04T23:33:40.282-05:00Thank you so much for reminding me about my snap o...Thank you so much for reminding me about my snap on lenses!

BUT, that's because he's infamous for forgetting he has things, not because he doesn't like them, or they're crap lenses or anything. I thought I could use them as well to take photos of my crafts, since my Canon is down for the count right now, but I honestly forgot about them too! I think I'll tell him right now to go get them right now…Panyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07047963482554239509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-26317209878360527062017-01-04T21:20:34.208-05:002017-01-04T21:20:34.208-05:00I haven't played with a fish eye one yet but I...I haven't played with a fish eye one yet but I love playing with the macro lens from Photojojo. They're magnetic, not clip-on, so you have to be willing to stick a metal ring around the camera on your phone, but the magnet is pretty strong. I haven't had one fall off yet and they even come with a little metal disc on a string loop for storage. I attach the disc, via loop, to my purse and then I can pop the different lenses (I have the macro/wide-angle combo one and the polarizer ones) on and off the discs and my phone (Samsung Galaxy S7) as I please. The company also has the Iris lens series for iPhones that you might want to check out. I look forward to seeing more awesome pics!Elyshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02903565892252246327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-35573723282675051532017-01-04T18:51:43.343-05:002017-01-04T18:51:43.343-05:00If you want quality, Olloclip has some nice sets f...If you want quality, Olloclip has some nice sets for a price though. I have the 4-in-1 lens set for iPhone 6/6s with wide angle, fisheye, and 2 macro lenses. I used it a lot when I was working for a real estate office and on my trip to Disney world in September. I also got the telephoto lens that has a cpl filter with it, but I haven't really used it. You can probably find some lenses for the iPhone 6 on eBay for a decent price since the 7's out now. That was where I got my first set for the 5s after the 6 came out.

And don't get me started on Prisma- I can waste- I mean fruitfully spend HOURS playing with it. I haven't tried any snap-on lenses on my phone, but my little point-and-shoot Canon has some of those fun lenses built in, and I've been pretty happy with how they turn out (when I can actually get the camera to turn on properly...grrrr...). I love seeing your pics, thank you so much for sharing them with us.
