NEEWER HD 85MM Telephoto Phone Lens Only for 17mm Thread Backplate, 2.5X Magnification Compatible with SmallRig NEEWER iPhone Samsung Phone Cage Case with 17mm Lens Adapter, LS-59

Used it several times. Here are the pros-cons Pros 1) portraits comes slightly better which is excellent. 2) easy to use. Cons 1) too heavy, making the whole setup unbalanced 2) uncomfortable to carry around during a trip Conclusion: Even if the pictures come good, low portability made me decide to stop using it. I will definitely get it out from the drawer only when I’m gonna take any portrait photo at my place.

The lens is very good. I did somehow receive open-box item albeit purchased new, but the replacement was received promptly. And the seller also reached out to apologize and offered refunds. I am happy with how the customer service handles this.

Great for portrait photography and videography

Perfect lens for my iPhone. It is heavy, which means it’s made out of good quality in my opinion. Just what I need for my son track meets.

I'd give the build and optical quality a 5, but usage is not good for my Samsung S22 ultra. It's a metal housing with heavy large glass. While more 17mm threads are becoming more available for newer phones, there wasn't a good case with native 17mm threads to put this on my S22U. I had a clamp on adapter that just didn't sit easily with the phone. The worst part is that portrait mode would never activate and kept giving the "please move farther away". I guess the zoomed in 85mm look was messing up the focus and post processing. I returned it because it just didn't play nice with the Samsung.

I don’t write reviews ever and I have to for this. The quality footage I was able to produce with this has been insane. I have messed around with a host of other iPhone compatible lenses and this one is by far my favorite. Very solid build quality, and you’ll know it the second you handle it. Works really well with a cage rig but beware it adds some weight. For a gimbal it might be tricky to balance but doable. If you are set on delivering high quality ProRes footage I highly recommend adding this to your arsenal.

The optics in this are the best I have ever encountered in an add-on lens. It has a very large primary lens for exceptional light gathering ability even in low light. It includes an effective anti-glare coating and comes with a very nice dust cap and carry case. Unfortunately the lens is very large and I have not been able to find an effective way to mount it. The clip on mounts are just not up to the task.

Love this lens !!

This blue ring upgraded version 2 of the Neewer 60mm LS41-PRO is much better than the original. The 60mm along with the 18mm (LS42-PRO). They are both the sharpest lenses on the whole Set of this new "blue Ring" PRO line. On the iPhone 15 Pro MAx, they focus quickly and the image does not lose any quality on these two lenses. Also they are both nice and small. No counterweight needed on a gumbal. The 85mm (LS59) is bigger than most 50mm lenses for DSLRs. it weights as much as two iPhones. It works well from about 2 metres away when the light is good, contrasty and plentyful. Not for cloudy days. The image is good in the middle, however its considerably more soft than the 60mm. I believe that its a "moody" lens with a very nice and smooth bokeh, and thats its strength. Don't bother using the lens clip with this lens, you are gonna need one of the Neewer metal phone cases or a cage, they both work well. Even the Neewer Faux leather case made fopr these lenses struggles to keep alignment with the 85mm due to its weight. Its a nice portrait lens where its flaws give its character. I also bought the 7x Zoom lens (LS36PRO) with the blue ring and its much better then the original tele which was very hard to use. This lens works well in sunny days and thats about it, sunny days only. There is a manual focus that you need to use to put the lens in focus range, near or far, the autofocus will take care of the rest. The closer the the subject is more you will need adjust the focusing ring. Anything beyond 20 metres the autofocus will adjust automatically. These lenses offer great value for what they offer, I have tried SHIFTCAM and Moment LEnses and the image quality is about the same, however NEEWER offers these lenses at a much lower price.

Amazing lens for street photography, portrait and closer shots. Quality and construction of this lens is very good and on par with more expensive products. Highly recommend this lens - Works well with iPhone 17 Pro Max.
