This latest review of the products that were in my iStore goodie bag covers the ollo 4-In-1 Photo Lens and Ollocase for The iPhone 6. First of all, it comes with the Ollocase:
As you can see, it’s a minimalistic case. The bottom is completely exposed which might be an issue if the phone is dropped. But there is a ridge that extends above the screen to make sure the screen does not hit the ground unless there’s a stone or something that is in the way. There are redundant buttons for volume and power as well. It is grippy so your iPhone will not slip out of your hands. But the case serves another function. it acts a platform for a set of lenses that will enhance your photo taking activities:
As you can see, the lenses fit on top of the case and cover both cameras. It’s easy to get the sense on and off. I should also note that it comes with a variety of accessories to keep your lenses at hand that include lanyards and lens covers. With these red lenses installed you get wide angle and fisheye options. Let me demonstrate below:
This is the stock iPhone 6 camera.
This is the wide angle lens.
And this is the fisheye lens.
Now if you unscrew the lenses, you get 10x and 15x macro lenses. Let me demonstrate:
This is the stock iPhone 6 Camera.
This is the 10x macro lens.
This is the 15x macro lens.
So clearly these lenses will let you express your artistic side. Any complaints? First, the lenses cover the flash, thus you won’t be using this in low light conditions. Second, those with screen protectors may not be able to use this system as it will not fit if the screen protector is too thick.
The ollo 4-In-1 Photo Lens and Ollocase For The iPhone 6 is something that I can recommend if you are an avid iPhone photographer who wants to do really neat stuff that you can’t do with software alone. Expect to pay $90 CDN to get your hands on a set of these lenses.
