SANDMARC’s new Probe Lens delivers the DSLR experience to iPhone with ‘close-up and unique perspectives’

SANDMARC’s latest release in its long line of gear made to transform your iPhone 15 into a professional-grade movie maker has arrived, and it’s called the Probe Lens. Described as a “pro-filmmaking tool for iPhone” with a price to match, this thing is no joke (despite some of the jokes you might be conjuring up right now). It is designed to capture “close-up and unique perspectives” (okay now they are doing this on purpose to me) to transform your footage into a more immersive experience. Not only is it now available for purchase, but we have en exclusive launch deal just for 9to5 readers down below. 

SANDMARC’s new Probe Lens

SANDMARC says its new Probe Lens attachment delivers what “used to be only accessible for DSLR and mirrorless filmmakers” to the camera you’re already carrying around in your pocket. 

This, as you can see from the imagery, is a 12-inch lens that “opens doors to new creative endeavors.” The brand says that despite it actually being a macro lens, it still manages to maintain a wide depth of field that allows filmmakers to keep “more of the scene in focus compared to a traditional macro lens.” 

The Probe Lens allows for probing between, through, and over any object. With 12 inches of length, create an immersive experience that will capture every detail. With a compatible SANDMARC case easily screw on the Probe lens to your iPhone and elevate your filmmaking experience.

The onboard focus wheel allows for manual control over the focus in your shots while the premium multi-coated and multi-element optical glass delivers “sharp footage with accurate colors and minimal distortion.” There’s also an integrated LED light  that “provides two lighting modes for any environment.”

Check it out in action below:

Just keep in mind, this is one of the rare occasion, likely due to its expanded form-factor, you will need to buy a separate SANDMARC iPhone case to support it. 

The new SANDMARC Probe Lens for iPhone 15 carries a $349.99 MSRP, but using code 9TO5TOYS at checkout will knock your total down to $315.99. It will begin shipping next month.
