Cellphone Micro and Macro Lenses.

I have received my first macro lens (4x) and tested it out before sending it with Joyce as part of her birthday gift. Mine will come later. I also received  both my micro lenses (15x). My cellphone also has a 4x zoom, so I tested with that in conjunction with the lenses creating 16x and 60x. Getting the best focus is difficult as you have to get the perfect distance and maintain it without moving.

I decided to try a few different things to zoom into using the micro lens as suggested and then multiplying it with the zoom as above.

I would love to try something fun from nature, maybe leaves or bugs. These lenses are from two different kickstarter campaigns. They are not meant to be used with zooms and are limited due to the need to be within one inch of subject which can block light needed for photography. Since I have two micro lenses and another macro lens coming I may be using some as Christmas gifts. I will keep one micro lens for myself. There is talk of making a 150x lens at some point and I would like to get in on that if it is available.
