Fisheye lens for every phone.

So, lately (due to the higher use of instagram and phone photography) we had this blast of super cool phone lenses being created. There are many options in the market and we can get a bit lost by not knowing which one to choose. I ended up buying one in MercadoLivre (kind of like a brazilian version of Ebay), I couldn't wait much longer to get my hands on one of these but I could have bought it on many other sites (international ones, it would just take longer to get here).

The most known fisheye lenses out there are, without any doubt, the Olloclip and Photojojo's, as I said I chose to stick with a non-brand one as it's much cheaper and it was already in Brazil and wouldn't have to wait 20-30 business days to even think about getting it.

they came perfectly wrapped and no signs of earlier usage or damage were found.

First things first: It's really simple to put it on your phone, the lens comes with three magnetic rings (they're adhesive ones) that you can stick it around your phone's lens (in many cases you won't be able to use the flash when the lens is ON, so if you use the flash a lot this might not be for you). The lens itself goes attached to that magnetic ring and it seems really safe, I can even shake the phone up and down and the lens won't move. So, feel free to walk along the park with the fisheye on and snap your day away! :)



To make things even better, the mini-lens comes with a lens cap you can attach to your key ring or the phone itself (like people do it in Japan all the time) and an once again, magnetic, rear lens cap so it won't get scratched during it's trips in your pocket.

Have you ever used any lens with your phone, if so, which one? Do you even like taking pictures with yours? Looking forward to hear your answers.

Look at that dot.

Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every kind and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar", every "supreme leader", every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. – Carl Sagan.

"Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than the atoms in your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about the universe:

You are all stardust.

You couldn't be here if stars hadn't exploded, because elements (the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, all the things that matter for evolution) weren't created at the beginning of the time, they were created in stars. So forget Jesus. Stars died so you could live."
