I wonder if they make anything like this for my Galaxy S5?
It's got a pretty awesome camera on it but obviously phone cameras have there limits

people with iphones, i was wondering how are you white balancing? i can change it on my point and shoot, but haven't figured out how to do it with my iphone. all my pictures taken from my iphone5s under a Maxspect Razor look horrible under blues or whites. thank you!

Get t5s instead :p
But seriously I haven't figured this out either. I'm sure there's camera apps that have that feature though.

I just got the macro lens for my nokia lumia 1020. It can only focus on something that is 3/4 inch to 1 1/4 inches away! How the heck is that supposed to work. My tank is 20 inches deep. I can only take pics of the coraline on the glass. Don't bother with it

I have an iPhone and use the macro lens I got off of eBay for $8. I took these pictures with the lens.






For some reason the pics aren't showing up for me. I'd really like to see pics through a phone macro lens.

so, what's farthest distance a coral can in order for the macro lens to work? I have a note 3 and would love to buy a macro lens from eBay

I just got a macro lens for my iPhone 5s a few days ago. It is a bit annoying how u can't see clearly more than a few inches away. Anyhow, here are a few pics I managed to take!
