iPhone 15 Pro Max Camera Lens Protector

[LouE37]

Anyone get one of these or have used them in the past. Thoughts on the value of this protection? I got a couple cases for my families iPhone 15 that came with them and the seemed pretty durable and made of glass. If worthwhile i may consider this for my 15 pro max.

I will never use a camera protector - the majority of the time they will affect image quality negatively because you are adding additional glass / material in front of the optics and sensor. This could get especially bad in low light / night shooting, and if there is any debris or air between the protector and the lens.

You are probably less likely to break a camera lens then you are a screen or the back glass, as they are fairly small elements and most cases will have a lip around the camera anyway.

I have one. There seems to be very little degradation in image quality.

I've never use camera protector on my iPhone, but maybe you can try this case, it covers the cameras and you don't need to worry about image quality degradation.

My previous iPhones have had issues focusing when lens protectors have been placed on them. If you really feel like you need something to protect the lenses, get a case with a sliding cover over the lenses or get a lens bumpers like these:

Mothca 2 Pack Camera Lens Protector for iPhone 15 Pro Max/iPhone 15 Pro, [No Glass Lens] Aluminum Alloy Matte Camera Protector [Strong Adhesion] Case Friendly Night Shot Camera Cover-Black

Mothca [2 Pieces Camera Protection for iPhone 15 Pro/ 15 Pro Max, Aluminium Alloy Camera Protection, Scratch-Resistant Lens Protector [No Glass, Clearer Shooting]

In fact, I don't really buy lens protectors separately, the one I purchased for the screen came with a lens protector inside, or maybe you could call it a kit, and the quality was so poor that I ended up rather using a solid case.

I found this thread while googling for cases with covers. I've been using a plastic clear lens protector since upgrading to iPhone 13... and now iPhone 15. I'd noticed some glare on the 13 but Google said it was because it was sensitive. now I'm wondering if it was the cap. I was trialling the new 15s camera with the tree and I was disappointed until I took the lens protector off.
added images for comparison and the clear one is without the protector.
