 What's up, guys? I'm here in Chicago at the Navy Pier trying out my new Sandmarc lens. So I'm gonna go out, take some photos. I left a DSLR in my car. I'm not only gonna take photos on this thing and my iPhone to show you guys that Sandmarc lens is in fact one of the best products out there for iPhone and photo taking together. This claimer, Sandmarc, did send me this lens quite a while ago. I'm doing another video on it right now. So just letting you know, it's kind of sponsored. So when I first saw the Sandmarc lens on Facebook, I was sort of skeptical only because I was like, there's no other way I know how to take photos other than using my DSLR, right? But I had a YouTube it and I was like, okay, I have to try this lens. Okay, so I'm gonna take a picture right here of, let's go, look at this right here. Look at this Ferris wheel, camera man. Look at this Ferris wheel right now. This Ferris wheel, oh that's dirty. You guys can go, go ahead. Yeah, yeah. Oh, with the bird right, oh, the seagull, oh. And that's what it looks like right there. Okay, come over here, let's try something else. Okay, I like the skyline right here, so let's come over around here and take a horizontal thing of a city. No, I don't like that guy in there. Three, two, one, boom. Hold on, with the bird, the bird. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Hold on, that looks so good. Okay, picture it right there, boom. Cool, cool, okay. Now we have a subject with a landmark lens. We're gonna do both. Am I paying attention to you or not? No, no, don't pay attention to me. We're gonna take both vertical and horizontal. Here's vertical, boom. That's what it looks like right there. Looks so good. Horizontal, now look at me. Boom, okay, let's take a look at that. Yeah, it looks so, what's your name? April, thanks so much, April. All right, let's come over here. Thing, I don't even have to review the pictures to see if they were okay or not, only because I know the iPhone XS Plus is already good quality, so I don't really care. More of the landmark lens that matters in this situation. I'm gonna do both vertical and horizontal. Vertical, that's what it looks like there. Horizontal, and this is what it looks like. Now just to show you what, you know, the difference between the landmark lens and not having it is this. This is without the lens, not bad. But as soon as I put, as soon as I screw the lens on, I instantly get so much more depth and I get so much more room to work with when I zoom in vertically and horizontally. That's one of the other reasons why I love the Samurai lens because you don't have to be a pro photographer to take good pictures. You can just take the iPhone that you have by the Samurai lens, this is $100, link below in the description, and literally be considered a pro photographer. Like no joke, these pictures that I'm showing you haven't edited, but they're only through, again, the Samurai and the iPhone. Let's shoot a couple more things. So as we're coming down to the pier here, here's the skyline, here's some beautiful kind of wood. I mean, it's just multi-layered, multi-colored. If I take this lens off, it'll look like this. But I wanna get more of the city and I wanna get more of this texture of the wood on the stairs. Cool, that's a good pick. If I turn it sideways, okay, I don't get as much depth as I want with the wood, but as soon as I start putting the Samurai lens on, instantly I get so much more room to work with. It's so much more wider, I get so much more depth. Even, even, I could say I get so much more color. Yeah, I'm saying that. Let's go and do one more test here. I'm gonna sync up on this guy with the bike. Get a really cool photo. Nevermind, he moved right at the last second. Hey, let's do this. One last one, skyline. Shoot, one more time. This is without the lens. This is without sand mark. It's not a bad photo. I'll take photo right now, I'll edit it, and it's right here. It's not a bad photo. Looks good, skyline straight, colors are good. But as soon as you start putting on something else that widens it, gives a little more depth of detail, instantly the picture becomes even more, boom, as I call it, a banger. It becomes an Instagram banger. That's vertical. This is horizontal. Boom, if I didn't have that lens, I wouldn't be able to get the skyline. I wouldn't be able to get this kind of, what do you call this, railing? And I wouldn't be able to get the, oh, oh, oh, oh, here we go. Now, I could have done that. I'm gonna keep saying I could have done that without the lens, but I was so close to that. I was so close to that duck that I wanted to get more, to get wider in my photo, so it was perfect that I had this on. Lesson of the day, don't forget your remote controller at home. Again, you could not do that without the lens. You could, in a sense, where you'd have to kind of like, you know, come over and get a good shot, but I don't have to because the lens is so wide, and I keep saying that, but it's true. It's kind of the key component of this lens. And this is how small it is. You don't have to be a pro photographer. You don't have to spend thousands of dollars on lenses and cameras, when you can buy this for $100. So there it is, guys. A short review on the Samarth lens of what it can do to your photos on iPhone. What I'm not saying is it won't replace your camera lenses and camera bodies. What it's going to do is actually give you more, more room and more range to actually get more into your photo. It's just a way for you to be on the go to get really good quality photos. And once again, guys, Samaric has sponsored this video. Thank you so much for sending out that lens. I'm having such a blast using it in Chicago. It's been a blast. And I'll see you guys next time on the John and Hugh channel. Peace. You can take the lens out of your pocket, literally clean it off and boom. Take the photo. I'm going to go edit it. It's going to look awesome. It might look like this.
