Things didn?t work out as hoped. I?d hoped to figure out a way to use the 3X with my Schneider Case/Bracket. Or to get a small bracket to mount to the corner of the phone. Nothing worked out as planned. So I?m selling: #1 - ExoLens bracket that will fit an iPhone 6 or 6s 3x Telephoto with Screw in Lens Shade 165? Super Wide that Front and Rear Lens Caps for Both lenses Small fabric sack to hold lenses. It is this kit: <https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1106923-REG/exolens_94722_exolens_for_iphone_6.html?sts=pi> $30 + Free Shipping in USA #2 - ExoLens Edge Bracket with gel liners to fit: iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6/6s, iPhone 6 Plus/6s Plus Essentially this product: <https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1307726-REG/exolens_9582101_exolens_a_la_carte.html?sts=pi> $35 + Free Shipping Apparently ExoLens has produced two different sized screw mounts. The Edge Attachment will only work with the Zeiss ExoLenses Which are both costly and duplicate the focal lengths I already have from Schneider. Though the Macro Zoom does look interesting. The Edge bracket will NOT with 3X ExoLens thread in the kit #1; much to my chagrin. Both #1 and #2 are impressive aluminum brackets with rubberized protection for the phone. The #1 kit lenses are well made though both with significant distortion. Still - very cheap fun compared to the Schneider and Zeiss lenses. The 3X would certainly do well for portraits at a comfortable distance; which was my original intention. As its distortion is seen mostly in the corners. The SuperWide is very similar to the Schneider SW and is great fun; sticking the lens inside flowers and other places one couldn?t normally place an optical device. Let me know if you have interest.
