APEXEL 195° Fisheye Lens Description
Put a fisheye in front of your phone and keep looking at the screen. You will find so many interesting shapes and compositions that you would normally completely miss. It just offers so much creativity.
A fisheye can also be super useful in getting shots that would normally require lots of trouble and are sometimes nearly impossible to make with a normal extreme wide-angle lens.
Why use Fisheye Lens?
Distortion
Distortion can be annoying. But it doesn’t have to be. Use fisheye distortion to your advantage. Find scenes in which the fisheye effect actually adds something to the scene. When used right, fisheye distortion can be pleasing to the eye and can be referred to a normal wide-angle lens. Try to use distorted lines and curves as a way to lead the viewer into an image.
‘Defishing’ is possible!
Sometimes fisheye lenses can be used as extreme wide angles. By putting the horizon in the middle the horizon line is generally almost straight. With certain tools, the curved lines can be straightened to get a super wide angle image.
Great for behind-the-scenes shots
Create a super wide view and fun angle.
Creativity
A fisheye lens in the right hands can create some imagery that wouldn’t have been possible with normal lenses. Try to keep your fisheye lens on your camera for a longer period of time and point it everywhere. You will be amazed on how many interesting things you can see on the screen of your camera compared to what you see with your own eyes.
FAQ
Q: Will this lens fit on my phone?
A: Yes! Our lenses are compatible with all iPhones, iPods, iPads, Androids ... basically every smartphone in the market.
Q: Does the clip get loose after a while?
A: No it doesn't get loose, two screws make it so firm, and the soft rubber inside can protect your phone from scratches.
Q: Can I use this lens with a case on my phone?
A: You totally can! As long as the case has a big enough opening around the camera. If the opening is very small, it still may work, but maybe there are black shadows. Thicker cases may cause slight light leaks. So I suggest you'd better take off the case when you use the lens, that's worthwhile to get better photos.
Q: Does your lens work for front camera too?
A: Yes, it does, also works for video, facetime.

Lens Maintenance
Lens Maintenance
- Keep It Clean: Always use a lens cap to protect the lens from dust and dirt. Clean the lens with a microfiber cloth and a lens blower. Avoid using rough materials that can scratch the lens.
- Store in a Dry Place: Keep the lens in a dry environment to prevent mold. Use silica gel packs in your camera bag to absorb moisture.
- Avoid Extreme Temperature Changes: Don’t move the lens between hot and cold places too quickly. If you’re bringing it inside from the cold, let it warm up slowly in a sealed bag to prevent condensation.
- Use a Protective Case: Store your lens in a padded bag or case to protect it from bumps and scratches.
- Check Regularly: If you’re not using the lens for a while, check it occasionally for dust or mold and clean it as needed.
