Clip-on lens kits? - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

Is it possible to use clip-on lens kits on the Huawei Mate 10? I have a set of Aukey wide angle and macro clip-on lenses shown here :
http://www.amazon.com/AUKEY-iPhone-Samsung-Android-Smartphones/dp/B01AYY840Y
I am aware that the dual sensors of the Mate 10 work together, so the RGB sensor gives color information and the monochrome sensor adds detail. What would happen if a wide angle lens is clipped on to one of the phone's lenses? Would it cause color or detail issues? What would the end result be like? Does anyone with a Mate 10 have clip-on lenses so they could try it out?
Cheers.

Was thinking about those lens too. I have a single for my S8+ but was wondering if someone made a dual lens for the M9 and M10 since they use both lenses to take a photo.

For anybody who is interested, it is possible to use clip-on lenses on the Mate 10. The bottom camera has the RGB sensor and it will be tricky to get the lens in place if the clip is not long enough. There is no obvious degradation in image quality, but a warning saying the lens is covered does show up. I'm attaching a sample picture shot with a clip-on macro lens.

yes because there are no lens made that has 2 holes in it if you'll base it on my photos there is no image quality loss even if the monochrome sensor is covered

Yeah if it works like what I read, if you have enough light, it shouldn't affect the picture if the monochrome is covered.

Why is LG promoting the glass lens?

Don't most phones use a glass lens anyway? I mean the G6 has a Gorila Glass 4 in the camera area. Or do they use a plastic lens with cover glass, and that's what LG is proud of in the V30, the first with a true glass lens and cover glass?
It’s not the exterior , it’s the lenses inside that make up the entire mechanism. These are all glass and make a difference over using plastic len parts.
Better glass optics produce better results. Same with DSLR lenses.
not all of them, just one of them is glass.

Not true, all the lenses are glass. Check out there site.

No. Only one first front lens is glass, others are plastic. But it's improvement, anyways
True. Only one of the multiple internal lenses is glass. The rest are plastic.

But it's apparently still different from what all other OEMs do, otherwise LG wouldn't be promoting it so heavily.

LG V30 will boast wider aperture, ‘world’s clearest’ camera lens
LG V30's camera has the lowest f-stop in a smartphone
LG tells us that the new device, "will include the world’s largest aperture and clearest lens ever to be featured in a smartphone." In real terms, this means that the V30 will, presumably only on the main camera of its dual-cam setup, come with an F1.6 aperture which would be the fastest we have seen on a smartphone camera so far.
In addition, the lens is made form glass instead of the usual plastic materials which, according to LG, delivers improved light transmission over its predecessor and competitors..

LG is calling it the Crystal Clear Lens, and it will be made out of glass rather than plastic, like those on many other smartphones. As depicted in the image above, it will allow V30 owners to shoot photos and videos that are brighter, sharper, and more colorful than ever before.
In comparison, rival devices like the iPhone 7 boast an f/1.7 aperture. LG says its new camera lets in around 25 percent more light. It’s clear that this will be one of the V30’s biggest selling points, and that LG will be marketing the device at those who want even great camera performance from their smartphone.
“LG boasts an unrivaled heritage in smartphone photography and our decision to adopt glass in the V30 camera is specifically because this has traditionally been the realm of DSLRs,” said Juno Cho, president of LG Mobile. “For the users whom the V series was designed, this kind of innovation is significant”.

have a 2x optical zoom question? is my device defective?

So I got an s9+ and part of the reason I wanted the upgrade was the telephoto lens and having optical zoom. But within an hour of using the phone, by playing around with the camera and covering different lenses while browsing through the options, I noticed that I could not get the telephoto lens to activate only but a few times and for maybe a picture or two. Everything is being operated through the main sensor with variable aperture.
I guess my main question regarding the 2x telephoto lens is when exactly is it supposed to come into action? As far as my device goes, I have only consistently been able to get it to work with live focus, with the ability to see both wide angle and telephoto after the fact, so at least I know in some form it does work.
There have been many times when I first enter in the camera app, instantly press the 2x and noticed that the cameras did actually shift, only to have it switch back permanently within seconds.
Shooting video has been a mixed bag as well, i have tried different settings and zooming in and out and there have only been a couple times shooting videos that when 2x is hit, it actually changes to the 2x lens and it takes over from there. Besides those few times, there is absolutely no switch, both proved by the lack of choppy transition from each lens as well as the fact I can cover the sensor and nothing happens on the viewfinder when it says it's in 2x zoom.
Attached are some youtu.be links that I screen recorded in various situations, using Pinch to zoom, and also using the actual 2x zoom icon in the stock camera app. But still not being able to get the 2x to work. It seems like since I've noticed this issue, I can't get the lens to switch unless I'm using live focus and it has to take a photo from each lens. What's weird is the phone will go digital zoom all the way from 1x up to 10x and it is horrible, and I could've swore samsung advertises it being a 2x optical zoom with added digital zoom to achieve 10x but how could that be?
Any ideas of what Im doing wrong, if anything? Or is this something I should bring up to Samsung? Also I got my phone at Verizon so possibly try to get a replacement?
Thanks to everyone in advance!!
Interesting. Try live focus, the phone switches to that second camera. So does that mean in theory the s9 could also have 2x zoom by way of cropping image size?
Edit: should had read your whole post, but I am seeing the same.

Sry I misspoke a little on previous post, when I said live photo I meant using live focus. And yes, using live focus is the only real way that I can see proof the module is working, as after the picture is take I still have the option to select and edit either the main sensor or the 2x sensor.. It's very strange!
The telephoto camera is configured to only work in bright sunlight. Which is annoying.

Thats not true. I have tested it just now in my room, with no bright sunlight nor other bright light. When I click the x2 it zooms optically with the telephoto lens, I see it when I put my finger in front of it. What I saw, is that when I cover the telephoto lens completely, it then switches to the other lens, but if it is clear it works.
So I was able to do some more tests first thing after sunrise, and I am also seeing this being a lighting issue, or rather lack of light that's causing the main sensor to take over..
Most of my previous tests were done in my room and also in other dimly lit areas. Which explains why I was only able to get it working a couple times and the situation has to be right..
I tried it out last night and I noticed the 2x lens was being used only when I had a background light in the picture, and as soon as the light got out of the viewfinder, it would switch back to the main sensor.
I really appreciate your guy's help on this..
I'm not sure I like how samsung has this 2x lens setup and it's almost like the 2x sensor is so bad compared to the main sensor, that in almost all situations the main sensor will end with a better and cleaner picture. Is this how the Note 8 handles its 2x lens as well?
I've been playing around a little with my S9+, it looks like in auto mode, when set to "X2", it only switches to the secondary (narrow) camera when the light is very bright.
In pro mode (where I would've expected to be able to control the sensor in use), I couldn't get the secondary camera to work at all (even if I manually select F2.4 aperture, that matches both cameras).
I've also noticed the X1/X2 indication in auto mode gets mixed up on certain conditions.
I've been noticing this since day 1. Mostly indoors and low lighting, it's the digital zoom from the main shooter that comes into play. Rarely the Telephoto lens is used for 2x zoom and is used primarily for live focus.
android 9 tossed the "2x"
I just (02/23/19) upgraded my Galaxy S9 to Android 9 and have found that the camera app no longer has the "2X" on the screen to allow usage of the optical zoom lens. I there another way to access that?
It looks like this now

Lens kit for Huawei p20 pro

Has anyone tried to use a lens kit (such as a macro lens) with the huawei p20 RGB camera? Does it work?
I contacted Moondog Labs and this is the response:
"We don't currently offer clamp-on lenses designed to work with your Huawei phone. Our technical department informed me that our 37 mm threaded lens is unlikely to be compatible, due to the phone's dual wide angle cameras and large sensor. We appreciate your inquiry, and may consider a Huawei-compatible lens in the future, but it is not currently planned for our next round of product releases."
I've found that when you cover the monochrome, the camera says not to cover it so I think we'd need something like the Moment lenses
I use macro lens (15 and 20x) and everythig works Ok. Below test photos, just test, I have not much time :-\

I've just had confirmation from Bomgogo that their new Govision L6 kit works with the P20 Pro. A little pricey but they seem to be pretty good quality. The $50USD kit comes with a macro, wide lens and UV protector. For some reason it's currently unavailable is the US and Canada, luckily I'm in Australia.

i own a couple! The best lenses i got are from Apexel and its a 12/24 macro and the other one is a 0.63X Wide Angle 12.5X Macro Lens that i bought from this seller https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/APEX...o-Lens-Clip/32654948540.html?isOrigTitle=true
i also got a few cheap one's that work fine and as long as you turn on the 40mp and use the lens thats in the middle then you shouldn't have any problems
I mainly use the 40MP camera,
Add these and you'll get pure awesomeness.
Lenses and case are from Kase
Search for kase.cn on Google, they're like moment lenses where you mount it on a case which they also sell.

i bought this case that can fit most 17mm thread lenses http://www.kasecn.com/en/show.aspx?ID=1168
I wouldn't bother wasting money on these lenses, save up and buy a 2nd hand DLSR with a kit lens or a keep macro lens, believe me, there's a massive difference
Do you have your sample pics or comparison with, and without lenses?

General OPPO Reno8 product review

Product review of Oppo Reno8
I’ve been using the Oppo Reno8 for 2 weeks and these are my impressions.
I got the phone in Shimmer Gold and I must say that this is the most beautiful phone colour. As the name suggests, the phone literally shimmers in the light. At different angles, the surface of the phone reflects light differently and appears in rainbow colours. On top of it, it is fingerprint resistant. In fact, I was reluctant to put on a phone case. Fortunately, the phone comes with a clear phone cover with a cut out for the camera, included in the box! Here are some images of the beautiful phone:

}
Weighing only 179g, with a large screen size of 6.4 inches, I could watch videos on the move while holding my phone comfortably. The colours were also nice and vibrant, with a screen resolution of 2400 X 1080 pixels. I often edit photos on my phone, so the range of colours displayed is really important for me.
The operating system is ColorOS 12.1. A super cool function I discovered the phone had was Air Gestures. This function allows you to scroll, answer phone calls or play/ pause videos without touching the phone. I tried it out while trying to follow a video to cook a new dish and it was super convenient. I could easily pause and play the video when I needed more time for any step without touching the phone (and making it oily or covered with flour!)
For a photographer, the cameras on the phone are crucial. Oppo Reno8 features the Dual Sony Flagship Sensors. There are 3 rear cameras. The specs of the main camera are 50MP, 1/1.56"; f/1.8; FOV 86°; 7P lens; AF. The specs of the Macro camera are FOV 89°; 3P lens; FF and the specs for the wide-angle camera are f/2.2; FOV 112°; 5P lens; FF. Specs for the front camera are 32MP, 1/2.74"; f/2.4; 32MP (f/2.4); FOV 85°; lens: 5P, FF. I was impressed by the quality of the selfie camera due to the high resolution. It also has some “beautifying” effects which makes me look good even when I didn’t have time to put on any make-up!
I put the cameras to the test the moment I unboxed it. One known limitations of phone cameras is the ability to function in low light settings and this was what I tested out. You can check out my unboxing video to see how it performed. I then tested taking photos at 1 location using the default “photo” mode, the “night” mode and also the “pro” mode. I often use the pro mode when I want to control the iso and exposure time but I was curious to see how the night mode performed for users who may not be comfortable with using the pro mode.
The subject I chose was the rain vortex at Jewel, Changi Airport. F 1.8 and 5.42mm was used for all 3 photos, using the main camera.
The 1st photo was taken using default settings, iso was 3609 and exposure 1/100sec.
The 2nd photo was taken using night mode. I was prompted to hold the phone steady. The iso was reduced to 967 and exposure time increased to 1/20 sec. Note that if you do not hold the phone steady, the image will be blurred.
The 3rd photo was taken using pro mode, I set the iso at 100, the minimum (to decrease noise), and exposure 1/3 sec, the longest possible without having over-exposed areas (to create the silky water effect).
Comparing the 3 photos (unedited, straight out of phone), you can see that the pro mode was sharpest and had most silky water effect. The night mode is a good “in-between” for users who are not familiar with using pro mode. One limitation to note is that the pro mode can only be used with the main camera and not wide-angle camera.
I also took tested taking portraits at night using both the main camera and selfie camera. The subject appeared bright in spite of low ambient lighting. These are some of the shots.
11 minutes was all that was required for me to charge the phone up to 50% using the 80W SUPERVOOC charger included in the box. It sounded too good to be true until I tried it out for myself. The battery was super long lasting; I brought it out for an entire day taking photographs and uploading them to Instagram and there was still 50% left when I got home at night!
In conclusion, it was a beautiful phone with good screen resolution and battery life. I was pleased with the performance of the camera at night and surprised at how well the selfie camera performed. The price point is also very competitive. Give it a try and you might be impressed as well!

I liked this kickstand because it was extremely thin like the magsafe ring.
I had to place the kickstand a bit to the right cause in vertical/portrait it would balance.
Also this case has a sort of 3d effect that makes the circuits look like it has depth and by being semi-transparent.

How do you like the lens protector? I've tried a two well-rated ones (a non name and a real brand - Spigen?) in the past. They both created flairs and haze-type effects for me. I've gone without and been ok so far.

The lens protector fit perfectly the ESR case. but if i want to use it on the Spigen case i have to remove it cause it doesn't fit being circular holes.
I also bought these https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004001083566.html but i havent place them yet and they offer less protection.
About the flares, and i know what you are talking about, specially at night that lights seem like stripes, you cant clean the lens with your fingers even if you can't see with naked eye that you think they are clean.
Use a microfiber cloth (cloth for eyeglasses works), even flares happens on the original lens without the protection.
The only issue i'm having and it's one that i think im going to take care soon by applying those other film lens i bought, it's the focus sensor, i think it takes longer to focus with amFilm.
I would suggest the newer ESR halolock ring 360, ESR/Spigen camera lens protector and ESR double ring instead.
ESR halolock ring 360- strongest magnetic attachment tested so far including magsafe cases (also self aligning).
ESR camera lens protector- high quality glass and fits most all cases including tight Spigen ones. Another option might be the Spigen camera lens protector.
ESR double ring- allows portrait stand, landscape stand, hold phone comfortably in numerous ways/angles, and extremely strong magnetic connection so it won't fall off.
