How about the rest of you. Anyone try this thing?

Save your money, even if they are cheap. 29 of 30 reviews gave it 'one' star.

And that one reviewer says it seems to have a boomerang option. He returned it and it came right back (albeit a month later).

I do not....I walk around with a great big heavy zoom and consider it part of my exercise program.

I’ve recently returned from a vacation where I used an iPhone 6 Plus exclusively and was happy with the results. Prior to the trip a ExoLens wide angle and Exolens Pro Telephoto for an iPhone 6 plus were purchased. The lenses filled my needs without a lot of bulk and weight. Admittedly, I used only the wide angle attachment while traveling. A small amount of distortion was reduced with post processing.

With the telephoto the results have little distortion and the resolution is more than acceptable for monitor viewing. The only drawback with using an Exolens iPhone lens is that it may stifle creative photography where a selective focus or/and exposure is wanted - in this case a bit of skill and a true DSLR is needed.
