REAL ZOOM, NOT DIGIAL ZOOM

Digital zoom guesses at detail, then smears it. A true 240mm optical tele lens captures it — sharper edges, real background compression, the far-away pulled close the way only long glass can.

ULTRA-CLARITY

Clean Edges. Natural Compression. Real Detail.

Inside is proper coated glass, the same kind a camera lens uses.

That’s why far-away shots come out sharp and detailed, instead of the soft, blown-up mush you get from zooming in on your phone ensuring sharp detail, vibrant color, and reduced glare — even in bright light.

"Feels like I'm a pro. It gives me that ultimate control."

WHY MOBILE OPTICS BEATS YOUR SETUP

The SuperZoom Tele Advantage

vs. Your Phone's Zoom

Pinch-to-zoom is a crop.

Zoom in far enough and your phone stops using its lens — it just blows the pixels up, so everything goes soft and mushy. Real glass captures detail your phone never had in the first place.

vs. Carrying your DSLR

Heavy. Stays home.

A big camera with a zoom lens gets the shot — if you actually brought it. Owners tell us they grab this instead when they travel, “despite the old gear with heavy lenses,” for the same reach in their pocket.

vs. a Cheap Clip Lens

Clip lenses wobble.

They sit crooked, add dark corners, and don’t line up with your zoom lens. The 240mm Tele mount is made for your exact phone, sitting right over your zoom lens — lined up and sharp, every time.

How it Works

Go from pocket to pin-sharp reach in three quick steps—mount, lock 5×, shoot.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

What is the 240 mm lens?

A precision smartphone lens that sits over your phone’s telephoto camera to give tight framing from far away with natural background compression.

Is the 240mm Tele compatible with all smartphone models?

Yes. LensUltra 240mm Super Zoom Tele work seamlessly with a broad array of smartphones across brands and models.

We recommended phone models with Tele Camera atleast 4x (iPhone 17) and 5x (iPhone 15 Pro Max-only / iPhone 16 Pro & Pro Max).
Lower Tele Cameras (3x and below) can still use the 240mm but might experience some vignetting.

What do I need to mount it, and how do I align it?

To mount the 240mm Tele, use an S-Mount Case (iPhone & available Android Cases) or the Universal S-Mount (other phones).

On Camera Cases:

Locate the Telephoto lens on the case, marked T.
Attached the 240mm Super Zoom Tele on to the mount marked T.
Use a 3rd party camera app to activate your 5x lens.
Now you can see and use the 240mm Super Zoom lens.

Quick steps (Universal S-Mount):

In your camera app, switch to 5× to identify the telephoto.
If you're stuck, you can cover the camera lens 1 by 1 to identify which is the telephoto lens.
Place the mount over that lens (not the 1× main), tighten.
See dark corners? Nudge the mount slightly, re-tighten, and check again.

Which camera apps should I use (and why not just the built-in app)?

Some stock apps auto-switch cameras. Use an app that lets you lock Tele/5×:

Blackmagic Camera (iOS/Android): choose Tele/5× before recording.
ProCamera / ProCam (iOS): select Tele and keep it locked. (Alternatives: Halide, Lightroom camera on iOS.)

Tip for iPhone: enable Macro Control in Settings so you can turn macro off when the icon appears at close range.

Do I need a tripod?

Handheld is possible, but at 240 mm small movements are magnified. For sharpest results, use a tripod/monopod or a firm grip like ProGrip.

Where can I shop Macro/Filter Add-Ons?

Congratulations! It's time to turn your 240mm Super Zoom Lens into a powerhouse with Filter/Macro Add-Ons.

You can shop them here.

How do the Macro Adapters work (and can I stack them)?

Screw a Macro Adapter on top of the 240 mm lens to turn it into a long-range macro. Working distances: 0.5m, 0.25m 0.16m & 0.1m (closer = higher magnification).

You can stack—start with the longer distance, then add closer ones, checking the preview for a clean image. (Adapters are designed to be used with the 240 mm lens.)

What is the thread size for Filters & Add-Ons?

The screw thread size for 240mm add-ons such as Filters and Macro are m37.

What shipping methods do you offer and do you ship internationally?

We offer two flexible shipping options to meet your needs:

Standard Shipping: 7–21 business days
Express Shipping: 3–7 business days with tracking

Yes, we ship worldwide. Please note that customs duties and import taxes may apply upon delivery.

What warranty do your products include?

What is your return and refund policy?

Non-Defective/Unwanted Items: Return within 365 days for a refund minus a 20% restocking fee; original shipping costs are non-refundable. You may opt for store credit instead of a refund.

Overall, it's Ok. The best

"Overall, it's Ok. The best usage is using it on X4 phone + tele. The results are great for city views or photos of animals where you want to stay unnoticed. For the higher distance (like views on mountains or lakes) it seems more limited (and lower value add compared to using my main phone camera), though, the limitation may be related to my phone telecamera. Also, when I use optical zoom only (X3 on my phone's tele) , I still have to move to X4 (involving digital zoom) to avoid getting black circle. And the last limitation is that my phone (Samsung 2022 model) can only use the generic mount system, that is less convenient when you are alternating the usage ot the Zoom Tele with using your regular camera. It would be great to have better range of cases for Samsung phone models, so that I can get one once I decide to upgrade my phone."

— Elizaveta S. (4/5)

Got to take a photo

"Got to take a photo of the full moon with my iphone (finally!). Will be great for travel photos and I plan on taking it with me to Hawaii."

— Angelo M. (5/5)

Was going to return it

"Was going to return it as couldn’t get sharp focus working but have decided to keep it as with Reeflex camera app seems to work a lot better. Really hope you develop a 300-600mm telephoto for iPhone. I want to stay with your products and not shift to second supplier Reeflex. With good 600mm telephoto I can retire my 200-800mm TELEPHOTO for my 4/3 Panasonic G9II Let me know if that is possible?? Thanks in advance. Robert K"

— Robert K. (4/5)

Good Reach

"Paired with an impressive set of multipliers and other filters to complete the set, this Lens really adds to my iPhone Pro's abilities. Longer rang to shoot my sports and macro for flowers. And all still fits in my vest pocket."

— Steven W. (5/5)

I never received the lens,

"I never received the lens, kit or case. I ended up having to dispute the purchase with my bank to get my money back. Your customer service could use some work!"

— nathan w. (1/5)

Love my Shiftcam lens paired

"Love my Shiftcam lens paired with my Google Pixel Pro 10 XL. Professional level pictures without an expensive camera body. I use this for work (food shots) and kids sports shots. Works great for both as long as you're shooting in manual mode and know what you're doing with the settings. Customer service on the other hand gets a 0. I ordered and paid for this and then filed a credit card dispute because it didn't come for weeks and customer service could not produce any kind of working tracking link for me to know I didn't get scammed. Unfortunate, because this is a cool product."

— Teresa G. (5/5)

Confused

"I’m new to this and I’m not sure if I’m stupid or doing something wrong? I purchased the phone case with mount and the super tele zoom however when I try to use it with my camera… it doesn’t work. I just see the lens in my photo or video? I saw that there are some apps apparently to use but which is for photo which is video compatible? Which is both? Idk. Not very immediate user friendly for newbies."
