I'm not even a mobile filmmaker, but this video had me hooked. Amazing job Marc and co. I think you're solving exactly the right problem at the perfect time.

@jmilr ha, thanks. we were a bit nervous going against the kickstarter video script of a sub 4 minute video. we're definitely relieved it worked out.

You have to own one to understand how much of a game changer moment lenses are in the mobile photography world. Lucky enough I own 2 and the 3rd is coming soon.

if you are debating on Lenses I strongly suggest you consider how what are your usual subject. I personally found that the Wide lens is my go-to lens. I take it everywhere I go! While the tele and macro lens I don’t use as often.

I love the battery case, but it can be heavy, definitely pair it with a wristlet or the neck strap.

Ps used the product for more than a month but less than a year l

Pros:

I can’t rave enough about Moment & their lenses. They are by far the best product on the market & an amazing team. Go with moment #noregret

Cons:

I don’t have any at the moment. Just too happy with it. The benefit just outway cons.

@prsarahevans hey sara. happy to share the high level points.... we started in 2013, basically we were using our phones more and more but missing elements from our traditional cameras. so we put a first lens set together to give people a different pov on their phone. that first project raised $500K which helped us get started. fast forward 4 years you learn a lot with each new product. some of the gear we've launched has done better than we thought and some worse. this did way better. recently the number one request we have been getting is more video. from the success of filmmakers -> vloggers, snapchat, ig stories, etc people are just shooting more video. with traditional cameras an anamorphic lens delivers amazing video but was always expensive. so we wanted to come out with something that was great and more affordable. when designing lenses we spend a lot of time tinkering with different optical design directions, playing with size and layers of glass, etc. what made this design hard was figuring out how to optically align the lens so it would work when shooting in both landscape and vertical. on the KS page we show this but the back of the lens rotates 90 degrees so you can shoot either direction. we definitely have a few months of work ahead of us as we move through production so fingers crossed we don't hit too many....oh $%^& moments. ;-)
