Z-Prime: affordable, high-quality iPhone lenses?

Ztylus Z-Prime lenses and case

The standard iPhone lens is a bit narrow for video. So there are a few accessory lens options. None of them seem to really cut it, though: the four-in-one Olloclip is compact, but quality isn’t that great. Moment lenses look a lot better, but they’re expensive and you either have to glue a mount to your phone, or use their case which only works with their own app.

I’m about to order the Z-Prime lenses from Ztylus. This is a complete kit with metal case, wide and telephoto lenses, magnetic lens caps and a carrier. They’re a direct competitor to the Moment lenses, with the same magnification (0.63 for the wide, 2x for the tele) and also claiming to have the same impressive image resolution. But they work out a lot less expensive, with the complete kit retailing at $149.99 (from April 27th, worldwide shipping is free).

The Z-Prime kit is currently only available for the iPhone 6/6S and 6/6S Plus models.

I’ll post a review when I’ve had the chance to try them out.
