This may seem strange to imagine, but there was a time when you could only take photos with the iPhone's camera and nothing more. You couldn't take video, you couldn't use filters or Portrait Mode — it was a simple point-and-shoot affair. Nowadays, you can do so much on an iPhone, that accessory makers have come to the aid, to enhance how you take photos and videos.

Moment is a great example of this, where they offer a bunch of cases and lenses that attach to an iPhone. When you combine this with the Camera app, you can take some photos and videos in ways you wouldn't be able to without these lenses.

if you have an interest in Photography, or you want to start up a hobby for the new year, we've rounded up some discounted accessories for Cyber Monday to help give you the push.

It's important to mention that in order to use the lenses with the case, you have to buy a Moment mount. This one on Amazon, for example, is for the iPhone 15 Pro Max that you can buy for $3.49.

Not only does this case let you attach different lenses to the iPhone's camera, but it's also made of a strong material that helps reduce shock absorption when dropped. The buttons are also made of anodized metal, so you still get that premium feel from your iPhone 15 Pro Max. For $15 off, it's a great deal to start off your photography hobby.
