I bought a bunch of traps, so, naturally, I bought a clip-on macro lens for my phone. I finally figured out how to use it properly (kinda).

Very nice. I used to have an OlloClip macro for my iphone a few years ago. It was really cool, but it had even more magnification and a huge f-stop so only about a 1-2 mm plane could be (close to) focused which made it kind of hard to use. Yours looks much more practical. Nice pics!

Thanks! I just hopped on Amazon and did my usual dance of positive reviews vs. lowest cost and spent about $20 on this one. I have a lot of tinkering to do, but the lens greatly improves the potential for showing off my plants.
