Super Telephoto 240mm

Phone cameras have steadily gained longer telephoto modules, but there is still a ceiling on how far they can reach. Super Telephoto 240mm is an attachment that aims to raise that ceiling: according to the maker, the patented lens strengthens a smartphone's telephoto shooting by up to 10x.

Built around the 5x telephoto camera

Rather than targeting a phone's main camera, the lens is optimized for the 5x telephoto cameras found on recent smartphones, the maker says. Mounted over that module, it delivers what the campaign describes as 240mm-equivalent super-telephoto shooting, intended to capture distant subjects clearly that a standard phone camera would struggle with.

Portraits and close-ups

The maker also positions the lens for portraits and close-up shots, claiming it brings out subject detail while softening the background naturally. Macro shooting is listed as supported as well, with the stated aim of recording fine textures and small subjects.

• 240mm-equivalent super-telephoto shooting, per the maker
• Up to 10x telephoto capability claimed
• Optimized for smartphones with 5x telephoto cameras
• Portrait and macro use supported, according to the campaign
• Described as easy to attach and compatible with various models

The maker frames Super Telephoto 240mm as a next-generation mobile accessory meant to make professional-quality images easier to shoot on a phone. Those claims come from the campaign itself; Modern-G has not evaluated the lens.
