how's it going guys I'm out on my roof again and today's video is gonna talk
about camera lens kits for phones have you ever felt a little bit limited by
the camera lens that you have on your phone and wanted a little expansion for
that because after all most cameras do have additional lenses you can buy that
completely change the look of whatever you're filming and it would be nice if
phones did that too well there are a quite there are quite a variety of lens
gets you can get but which one should you buy should you spend the money for
the absolute best quality ones are they worth it or do you want a gateway lens
kit that would be good to start off and if so are they any good or worth try
well that's why I'm here I bought the youse three in one camera
lens kit at five below for five bucks now if you don't want to go to five
below or you don't have one near you I will put something in the description
that is at least similar if not the same as this but today we're going to talk
about this one because it is dang cheap I mean you get three lenses for five
bucks how good could it be well we're gonna explore them so to open it up
let's see what you get first of all it says Universal flip
easily attaches and detaches lenses to any smartphone
well that that removes compatibility questions because there are some lenses
that you have to get a specific case for for your phone in order for it to work
and then they only make those cases for usually iPhones or maybe Samsung Galaxy
phones so what this does is it just clips on
okay the first one that they have a cache is that this yeah fish eye lens
and honestly seems decent enough I mean there's some impurities from the glass
now for this price who cares let's see if it's actually worth anything moving
on then we have the macro lens and then wide-angle lens my phone is an LG G6
which already has a wide angle lens on it in fact when it was made it was the
widest angle lens that any smartphone I had ever had
let's see if it makes it even wider nice nice thing the clip has padding the side
that goes over your screen and then you kind of select which camera I have two
cameras on the back so you have to pick which one you're going to use
and start
I can see it centered so good let's take a look and see how good that is and
that's the view from the fisheye lens it kind of takes up just a circle in the
middle it's okay I guess you could crop it but there is a awful lot of Ben yang
hair though the rough and yang but you could make an interesting Instagram
video since you know traditionally they're square let's move it to the next
side of the camera and move it to the regular okay there we go now now that
it's not wide angle we could adjust it a little bit Wow okay that's not as
terrible as I thought it I don't see too much purposes it looks like there's a
little bit of just yep there's definitely distortion on the side which
is definitely gonna make a cool look if you're looking for that I could see
creatively there being a few reasons to try this
thus turn around see how I look I bet in the editing it's gonna look really
stupid so with all these lenses all you gonna do
so after a bunch of tries I finally got to contribute all right it's about this
bad boy on look like on the actual wide-angle
oh goodness I don't know what's going on there it's completely out of focus I
mean there is only one way to screw these things on so it's not like I put
it in backwards okay well that is kind of worthless now let's switch it to the
regular camera super super blurry is it dirty I mean it's not doesn't look dirty
doesn't look all smudgy Wow that is that is truly bad uh I'm not sure why it's
doing that
so the last one in the case is the macro and you have so many limitations with
as how far you can go self they're so tiny
one thing you could explore is my bro
there we go now it's lined up so please to work
we gotta get gotta get something small
there's okay so this is the macro mode I am super zoomed in to a pebble that is
on this roof the sand around it close you can see this is a hand wow that is
cool I kind of like the distortion that's going around the lens and the the
slight RGB pull the slight color diffraction or slight color refraction
this shows I mean you could do some interesting video even pictures with
this you could even get some cool cinematic projects you know to make it
look like microscopes and all that kind of stuff
I could I could see playing with this quite a bit because it's really
interesting alright let's switch it over to the
wide-angle lens
see how much of a different dad will make there we go it's adjusted so that
they're okay oh wow that's cool too is really cool
look of course you can get to that see all the little defects in the rock
close-up of the sand
remember when it zoomed in this close and he's shaking your hand will show up
in the footage
but what you are getting is something to play with something to be creative with
which I always think is pretty valuable ever for the price again for you to be
able to make something book more interesting than you normally put with
the regular camera that's on your phone why not now they do make quite a quite a
few more of these I'd be interested in trying out one of the zoom lenses that
you can attach I'd be curious to see how well they work
I'll probably get my hands on one at some point but right now I'm pretty
happy with how that worked so again that is the use three in one camera lens kit
you can pick them up at five below or if you're lazy you can check out the links
in the description all right guys that's enough of playing on my roof and I'll
see you in the next video
you
