Anamorphic 1.55x Mobile Lens (T-Series), Gold42 / II
Make the most dramatic Hollywood films on your phone. The 1.55x Anamorphic Lens is our boldest squeeze - a true widescreen letterbox with stronger horizontal flares and deeper oval bokeh than any lens we make. The more a lens squeezes, the more anamorphic character you get, making this the filmmaker's lens, built for video. Available in three distinct looks - PanaBlue , Gold42 , and Natural . These aren't presets, they are optical decisions, rooted in physics and cinema history. Because anamorphic has never been about perfection. It's about what happens when light breaks, and what you choose to do with it.

Moment Anamorphic 1.55x Lens, Blue Flare — Cinematic Polish for Personal-Brand Video
The gist: For remote workers building a YouTube channel, course, or LinkedIn video presence, this clip-on lens adds a widescreen, filmic look that separates your content from standard phone footage.
- Cinematic aspect ratio: a 2.76:1 widescreen straight out of camera instantly signals higher production value on intro clips and thumbnails.
- Genuine optical flares: blue lens flares come from 3 precision-ground glass elements, not an editing-software effect layered on afterward.
- Compact and travel-ready: 1.3 x 1.3 x 1.0 inches and 1.5 oz, easy to keep in a laptop bag for on-the-go recording.
- Consistent framing: pairs with Moment's companion app to keep the look consistent across recording sessions.
Tom's Guide called the T-Series lenses "built well" with "awesome lens flares," noting the companion app is "fantastic," though the lenses are "rather pricey" and work best with a case.
Best for: remote professionals building a video-first personal brand through courses, YouTube, or LinkedIn. Skip it if: you only record standard webcam meetings — the cinematic effect won't register in a small video-call window. Runs ~$99 — check the current price before buying.
