Moment Wide Angle Lens - 18mm Lens for iPhone Pixel Galaxy OnePlus Phones

About a year ago, my husband and I made the decision to retire and move to a different country. Since we were going to be doing more traveling and seeing lots on new things, I wanted to document, remember and share the life changing events that were about to unfold. After about a month of research into phone lens upgrades, and seeing positive reviews for Moment come up time and time again, I decided to give them a try. I gave myself a budget of $300 to begin and decided to go with the M-Series to get the most for my money. But, I have the iPhone 14 Pro Max. I learned that this phone came out with a larger camera sensor than previous generations and might not work with the M-Series. Many people on YouTube questioned the usability as well, and posted helpful ‘pros and cons’ videos. Being a novice, I felt the issues were minor and the M-Series would be a good starting point for my new hobby. The package I put together included the Moment Case, 18mm Wide, 58mm Tele, 10x Macro, the 1.33 Anamorphic, and some well-designed accessories to attach some 67mm lenses. “Checkout”… now wait! After about a week, I received the lenses. The accessories were shipped separately and took an additional week, seemingly coming from a different country. The tracking info provided was very basic, stating time, arrival, and departures. Everything, but the 18mm, arrived in pristine condition. I contacted customer service with the issue and received a response from Szabolcs the following day. I explained my issue, he asked for a couple of photos, and the issue was resolved! His response was kind, concerned, resolute, and easy! Customer service excellence! I have installed the lenses and played around a bit and the lenses are definitely a major upgrade over the basic phone lenses. And accessories are well thought out and masterfully constructed. I am very impressed! I can’t wait for some nice weather, so I can play with the lenses more. Thank you, Moment, for an excellent experience!

I purchased this lens to be able to use it at one of my daughter's cheer events and my other daughter's hockey games. For the cheer event, I was able to get the entire area of the mat and the shots came in clear. The lens is surprisingly good. For the hockey game, I still have to pan right and to get the whole sheet of but get the entire half of the rink without issue. The lens is solid and has a bit of weight but it uses quality parts so that is not much of an issue. It comes with a bag and lens cap for when not in use. Mounting the lens requires a phone case that is sold separately. It is a good case so worth the cost to protect your phone. Sadly the lens is too heavy for the DJI 4 Gimble. It kept releasing the motors to prevent damage. Since the DJI 4 is all automated there is nothing you can do to counterbalance it but that is for another review. Get the DJI 3 Gimbal and there are good videos on youtube that will make it work well with this lens.

I was testing this lens for the last weeks and i have to say that i loved how small and convenience is compare with another big wide lenses. The fast way to attached the lens to the case and be ready in les than 10 seconds is something that it is major key for any video production. The reason why i used my phones for video is for capturing moments and shooting different angles that are impossible to do with another cameras. I have to say this wide lens pump my creativity as video creator, also you need to know that if you use iphone xs as i do combining this lens with your native lens you can have access to something around 14ish with wide lens attached to something like a 24mm with native camera to around 50mm if you use the 2x option in the iphone camera what gives you a really flexible range to work with only one lens. But i have to say that if you use this lens with your gimbal in my case dji osmo 2 you will find several problems than until now i was not able to fix such us the lens is than wide than always capture some part of your gimbal arm, there is a particular way to shoot with your gimbal where you avoid part of this but it is not really a solution for the majority of your shots, also if you try to vlogging take in consideration if you are using a gimbal you will have this problem at least that you used the selfie camera. This is not my case because the selife camera is a really inferior camera compare with the front. So, the only way i find you can avoid this problem is filming in 4k and zooming in post a little bit till your gimbal disappears of the frame, it is not a big deal but i would like not do that. Also you have to consider that this lens produce some flares in the inferior left corner that could be annoying some times if you are trying to get a clean shot but sometimes i use this in an artistic way. Overall, i have to say it is the best lens in the market i buy and i am quite happy with the result but i will recommend you take in consideration, those little details and also buy the back cap to avoid get dust inside the lens.

The box looked like it was already open because the tab was pulled out. The lens was dirty because the card they put on top of it was rubbing against it and pieces of the card flaked off onto the glass. The packaging is not terrible but could be much better. They should just ship it with the cap on. Not sure why they don't. The lens itself is just like all the other reviews said. It is high end and the images taken on my Note 8 look very good. I posted a pic of my dog on a couch without the lens and one with the lens. The beore and after shots tell you all you need to know really. Installation is simple. The lens can be carried in a pants pocket, whipped out and installed in less than 30 seconds. No need to line up anything. That alone is worth getting these over clip on lenses. I also ordered their updated 58mm tele and the new anamorphic. The wide is totally worth the money. The only thing that sucks is that a 10% promo code was put up on Facebook a day and a half after I ordered them. My order was not completed because the anamorphic is on back order so I sent an email hoping they could hook me up with that 10%. I'll probably end up taking that $25 and using it for the gimbal counter weights they sell.

I liked the overall setup - the case, the lens, the little bag that the lens came with. The reason I take off one star is because of the fact that this case is very obviously "large", and expensive for what you pay for. An equivalent OtterBox case (which is thicker, and much more precisely cut than this one) costs roughly around 1/3 to 1/2 the price of the Moment case, without even considering the lens. The lens itself is great, but somewhat bulky. I wish there was a hard case that we could store it in instead of using the small bag that was included with the lens - the lens cap itself is plastic & feels flimsy, but it'll have to do, given that that's all I have. Keep all this in mind when considering I've only owned this for 2 days so far, and tested it for ~6 hours on a weekend. I'm not sure if this will stand the test of time, but I seriously hope it does. It seems good.

The lens works very well. Good sharpness and color rendition. It is a vast improvement on other clip on lens I have used. Just make sure that you have the main subject of the picture centered and perpendicular to the ground. Any angle deviation from perpendicular tends to create distortion on the outsides of the image. It reminds me of one of my all time favorite lens which was a Nikkor 24mm with less parallax correction. The lens works well with the case but be aware that the combination of the two becomes remarkably heavy after a couple of hours compared to just a phone and a case. Wish they had a rear lens cover as the lens goes on and off a lot. The case is well made, grippy and looks good in black but understandably is a bit thicker than a regular case. All in all this is a great lens at a reasonable price.

I’ve had the Wide Lens for a few weeks now and I totally love it! I can’t believe how much more image I get in pictures and videos. The lens is really nice, got that nice hefty premium feel. And I love the case that it comes with. (I got the walnut case for my iPhone 6s+.) I put a wrist strap on the case and it’s the perfect combo with the lens. The mounting mechanism is what I love about Moment Lenses. I have a clip on lens, and it’s so annoying trying to center it. I lose so much time and it just becomes frustrating over time. But with this lens, I just line it up, twist, and I’m ready to go. Love how secure the lens is when I mount it, and the twisting motion and how it feels as it locks in is also super satisfying. I haven’t been so excited about an accessory before and it totally changes the way I use and think about my iPhone. I totally recommend it if you’re looking into taking better photos and videos. This is the way to go!

I bought a wide lens M- series and a case for I phone 16. When I got back home to Brazil I noticed they don’t fit. I could not find which one is the right one in your site

I’d personally recommend you to buy this before venturing into a full frame DSLR. The lens feels super premium. I’ve attached 2 photos along with this review. One shot on the regular lens (iPhone X) and one with the wide lens (Moment). See the difference for yourself. Seller was prompt and friendly with my enquires. Overall, happy with the purchase decision.

Wonderful to take on holiday, much less bulky than a DSLR.

仕事のブログ用に購入 良いです。 高いスマホは広角が広いと思うので 必要ないかもですが ミドルレンジスマホはあると便利です。

Excelente calidad
