Olloclip Debuts New Active Lens For iPhone 6 & 6 Plus

Apple’s iPhones have been known to take great photos, but if you’re looking to enhance your photos taken by your phone, you might be pleased to learn that Olloclip has recently announced their new Active lens for both the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. For those unfamiliar, Olloclip is a company famous for its clip-on lenses for mobile devices.

With the new Active lens from the company, these sets of lenses can be easily clipped onto the top part of the iPhone without needing any extra mounts, screws, or a special case. The lens itself can also be worn around the user’s neck like a pendant for easy access, and it is also small enough to be stowed away in your pocket or backpack.

There will be two lenses on the Active lens setup. One of them is an ultra-wide lens that will give the iPhone a wider “action camera” field of view, or so the company claims. This will help create more impressive photos for landscape photographers, or for those who love selfies, the wide-angle lens should allow you to fit more people into your group shots.

There will also be a telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom that lets users get in up close on the action. Given that the iPhone only features digital zoom, the addition of the telephoto lens should result in clearer photos, hopefully. That being said the Olloclip Active lens does not come cheap as it is priced at $100. It is available for pre-order so if you’d like to get your hands on it, head on over to Olloclip’s website.
