Orphek Lens Kit

Hello all

Just wanted to give a shoutout to Orphek for their great lens kit. I have an iPhone 17 and used the full stack of filters including the macro lens. I was very impressed with the quality of the photos. I took an experimental photo of my Bleeding Apple Scoly and never noticed the tiny blue speckles on him. My Blasto came out pretty good as well. Detail was fantastic as well as the color trueness. What does everyone think??

When you say the full stack of lenses you mean you are using all the lenses at once? Ie, the yellow, orange, macro lens, etc. all together? I should try that too it seems.

Yes. I started out with just the orange and yellow filters but I wasn’t happy with the color results. Also, the zoom on my iPhone made the final photo a bit blurry. I then tried the full stack of 3 filters plus the macro and got the results you see in the photos. You have to play around with them to get the results you’re happy with. Good luck!
