Every casual photographer who uses his or her smartphone to capture photos or even record quick videos know that taking high-quality images in extreme proximity is close to impossible. Zooming into the subject does not help either, resulting in blurred images.
While there are smartphone lenses in the market like the Sony QX100, they take up a lot of space and do not fit well with case-equipped phones. Here’s one suggestion: put the Easy-Macro smartphone lens band on any phone, iPhone or Android.
This simple gadget consists of a rubber band with a 4x magnification lens. Strap it on your smartphone with the zoom lens over the camera and you will be able to take pictures and videos in super close-up, displaying finer details than usual such as the muscles in your own iris.
You can either stash your rubber band smartphone lens in your wallet or keep it on your handset so you won’t miss a moment that needs to be seen up-close. It also works on fourth-generation iPod Touch and even on 10-inch iPad or Android tablet.
The Easy-Macro smartphone lens band is available online for only $15.
