The preferred way to mount your lens is by using a Moment case. If we don't have a case for your phone, we also offer a universal lens mount.
It's all packaged cleanly with that classic Moment design.
Attaching the lens is simple. Take your Moment case and line up the lens bayonet with the camera cutout, then rotate clockwise until it locks into place.
Your lens is aligned correctly when the Moment logo is oriented on the right side of your device. Remember, this lens is designed to be used with the 1x camera.
On my Samsung S24 Ultra, the 1x camera is the middle one. The ultra-wide and telephoto lenses are located above and below, respectively. When attaching your lens, be sure not to over-tighten it. As you turn the lens clockwise, you'll feel it lock into place with a gentle halt. If you push the lens any further, you may cause damage.
The 18mm Wide lens is perfect for landscapes, architecture, group shots, interior photography, street scenes, and vlogging. It provides a beautifully broad yet natural perspective, capturing more of every scene without distortion.
The 18mm Wide lens will work seamlessly with your Android camera app, but below are a few settings and software that may help you get better results.
