Description
This is an 18× telephoto lens for mobile phones, marked on the front as “18x Mobile Telephone Lens”. It is designed to attach to a smartphone camera to provide optical zoom, functioning like a small monocular telescope for mobile photography and video.
A popular accessory for extending the reach of a phone camera when photographing wildlife, sports, scenery, buildings, or distant subjects, without relying purely on digital zoom.
It can also be used as a hand-held pocket telescope with 18x magnification.
How It Works:
The lens can be attached to your phone’s camera lens using a bracket (not included), magnifying the image by 18 times before it reaches the phone’s sensor, helping achieve clearer zoomed shots than standard digital zoom. It also works as a standalone monocular.
