FAQs

What is the purpose of the 1.33x anamorphic squeeze factor?

The 1.33x squeeze factor transforms standard 16:9 smartphone footage into a wider cinematic frame of 2.76:1 once desqueezed using apps like Blackmagic Camera or Filmic Pro. This creates a more immersive look, ideal for storytelling, landscapes, and dramatic visual effects.

What kind of flare does the lens produce?

This lens is designed to produce tinted streak flares, adding a warm, stylistic glow to lights and reflections in your scene. The colour tone sets it apart from typical blue flares, helping content creators achieve a more organic and less sci-fi-inspired look.

Do I need any specific phone to use this lens?

No, the lens is not phone-specific. As long as your smartphone rig or case has a 17mm threaded mount and allows alignment with the main camera lens, it can be used with most iPhone, Samsung, or Android devices. Proper mounting is key to optimal results.

Can I attach additional filters to the lens?

Yes, the lens features a 58mm front thread that supports compatible filters. You can attach ND filters, mist filters, or other effects to tailor your footage even further, making it a flexible choice for controlled lighting and creative styles.

How durable and portable is the lens?

The lens weighs just 122g and measures 64.3mm in diameter, making it compact enough for on-the-go shooting. It comes with magnetic lens caps that click together for added protection and a travel case for safe storage and transport.
