Which lenses are the best for portraits for an iPhone?

One often asked question I get – which lens should I buy for portraits? Most popular focal lenses for standard cameras – 24 mm, 35 mm, 50 mm and 85 mm. My favorite is a 35 mm lens for a standard camera performance, so for mobile portrait photography I own mobile lenses: 37mm and 41 mm.

Some notes which I found out using popular lenses for standard cameras which will definitely help you understand what you will get using 37mm and 41 mm lenses for mobile photography. So, the 35 mm lens is my favorite focal lens for portrait shooting. It is a bit closer to what the human eye sees naturally. I like the aesthetics of the images with that portrait lens.  Arguably it is closer than the 50 mm focal lens, but I find that this lens has most of all is versatility. This lens can get great wide angles, but also you can take a few steps forward and get really nice close-up images. The 50 mm is called standard lens, because it is the most natural looking focal lens. It has a low amount of perspective distortion. The 85 mm is the most zoomed lens and it is often called portrait lens, because it flattens the perspective of objects which results in more flattering images of people.

All focal lengths have very different characteristics. There are no rules on which mobile lens you should use in any portrait shooting. Photography is an art form. As a photographer you are communicating with your audience through the images you create. You have to be able to use your equipment in order to tell an idea or story with each photo you take.

I like the fact that these are portraits and you get really nice long exposure shots.

On most types of smartphones the distance between its camera lens and its top is less than 1 inch. Polarization rate up to 99.9% and transmittance up to 99. Professional High Definition (PHD) Lens reduces glass flare and ghosting caused by reflections. Star filters are often used in dark environments with bright light sources. Bright environments may diminish star effect.they are great for photographing jewelry, crystals, candles or other lighting special effects (Create a Wonderful Dazzling Star Effect).

When shooting outdoors with this mounted on the single rear lens of my iPhone, this ND filter prevents over-exposure while providing depth and contrast to the scene. It also turns, so you can adjust it as well.
