It's glass, and the quality feels good for the price; I used it and was pleased with it; you can't expect anything spectacular from a phone case. You wouldn't use ND filters on a full frame camera otherwise, would you? Finally, if you want to get the most out of it, use a manual mode app like ProCam to adjust shutter speed. Otherwise, the camera app will default to automatic mode, defeating the purpose.
Should. It's nothing more than a clip-on accessory. If anything is blocked, it will be determined by the app.
For phones, the clip expands quite a bit. That's a bit of a stretch.
Yes, you may need to reposition the clip because the aperture on my Samsung Note 10 is a little small. If it does not work out for you, you can always return it.
Selected User Reviews For Neewer 37mm Clip-on ND 2-400 Cellphone Camera Lens Filter Kit: Adjustable Neutral Density Filter with Phone Clip for iPhone X 8 plus 7 Plus 7 6 6S Plus Samsung HTC Motorola iPad and Other Smartphones
The cutout is not in the middle of the circle. It's effective, but it's a little too close to the bone. Until you reach the maximum density, the optical quality is excellent. It's a good deal for the money. If you're using an iPhone, the clip will automatically center. I'm planning to purchase an LG G7, and the main camera is located a little higher on the phone, so I'm hoping for better centering. I took a picture to demonstrate what I mean about the clip not reaching far enough to be in the center of the S9 main camera.
I love the product; I use it on my iPhone 6s and iPhone 8, and I knew there was a way to reduce the amount of light. The clip sits on the phone in such a way that it allows a sliver of light to pass through the lens. In bright areas, it stops down to dark after the rubber washer is added. I'm hoping for a v2 with a rubber washer included next time, but in any case, I'd recommend it.
The opening of the clip that comes with the Neewer 37mm ND filters is depicted in the picture on the left. Take note of the clip's single hole. br>br>The picture in the middle shows how the clip that comes with the UKCOCO Phone Camera Lens - opens. On Amazon, you can get a 37mm CPL Filter Lens Circular Polarizer. br>br>I've confirmed that the 37mm ND filter threads into the UKCOCO clip without difficulty. Advantages: br>br> br>br>You can use the UKCOCO clip with either the Neewer ND or the UKCOCO CPL if you have one. If you have an LG V40, the clip that comes with the UKCOCO appears to be custom-made for you. It was tailor-made. If you have a smartphone with dual or triple cameras, the clip that came with the UKCOCO may work better with the Neewer ND filter than the clip that came with it. br>br>Contrary to popular belief, there are a number of disadvantages to using this product. br>br>You might need to spend a little extra cash (currently $11) to get the job done. 99) for successfully using the Neewer ND filter with the UKCOCO CPL and clipbr>br>I could deduct one star for the Neewer ND because the clip does not work well with my LG V40. However, I also require a CPL, which necessitates the purchase of the UKCOCO filter and clip. br>br>The image on the right shows a hard drive case that is ideal for transporting the two filters, which are each attached to a UKCOCO clip. It's worth noting that the filters attach to the hard drive-holding straps.
This is the filter to get if you want a good variable ND filter for your smartphone. Surprisingly little color shift, and the filter actually limits how much you can rotate it, so your images are unlikely to have a cross effect. Also, while the filter holder is 37mm wide, the front of the ND filter is 43mm wide, allowing you to stack a polarizer on top if you want to get crazy. My only gripe is that you can't leave the filter on the holder while it's in the included plastic case, but hey, it's only $13 and if that's the worst that can happen, it's not a big deal.
NO vignetting is allowed. When the lens arrived, I put it to the test right away with FilMiC Pro. Instead of those Crispy/Choppy iPhone frames, perfect motion blur was applied to 24fps footage. Allows you to see- back to a much smoother and cinematic state I haven't noticed any significant color shifts or vignetting, for example. br>br>Perhaps the newer iPhones' larger sensor eliminates this problem? One of the larger ones is in my XR, and I haven't seen any light-up ones yet. Any spills or dark corners should be avoided. I haven't noticed any color shifts either, but the majority of my footage is of my son doing various outdoor activities, and I haven't conducted any'scientific' color studies. br>br>The clip is strong for such a small filter, and it doesn't cover any of the XR's microphones, as another YouTube video pointed out. My only complaint is that it doesn't come with a lens cap, so I'm going to eBay to buy one for a dollar from China. br>br>Despite my reservations after reading some of the other reviews, I am *extremely pleased* for the price. br>br>Wish I had bought it when it was only thirteen dollars! However, you can make your own using an iOgrapher Lens Clip. If you buy a name-brand ND filter, it will set you back more than $50. So with next-day delivery, it'll cost you $33. It's a fantastic deal to get shipping the next day.
My Galaxy S8 Plus was the device I used. Because you won't be able to use a phone case with the Galaxy models, one thing I'd change is the size of the clip, but I like it so far.
On an iPhone Xs MAX, I tested this. I was filming in the desert, and the sun was scorching. The variable ND setting worked really well. You can easily and quickly change the amount. I mostly shot video, and the ND filter really brought out the colors. Loved it! br>br>On an iPhone Xs Max, the only issue is that it does not cover both the wide and tele lens at the same time, so I had to adjust it every time I wanted to switch lenses. It's very simple to accomplish. However, it is inconvenient when you need to shoot something quickly. The only reason to deduct a star is for this reason. br>br>Because it's so light, balancing it on a gimbal was simple and didn't throw the gimbal off. In order to stabilize the iPhone, I used a Movi Freefly Cinema gimbal. It was perfectly balanced without the use of additional counterweights. The ND placement, on the other hand, required a great deal of care. The phone had to be mounted slightly closer to the gimbal's joint due to the small amount of extra weight. You can just make out the gimbal joint in the far right corner of some of the shots. I can easily crop that out without losing anything because I shoot in 4K and edit in 1080, but it's a minor annoyance. br>br>I would recommend this to anyone looking for a cost-effective and effective ND filter for their phone. Simply keep in mind what I've said.
Without a moment lens, I usually use this on my Moment Case. It appears to be in good condition. The clip is very sturdy. There may be light leaks with a filter that isn't attached, as is to be expected with a filter that isn't attached. On my iPhone X, I make use of.
