Pro Series Fisheye Lens

The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens captures an ultra-wide ~160° diagonal field of view while filling the entire frame with the image. It creates the distinctive curved distortion and immersive perspective of a classic fisheye, similar to the dynamic wide-angle look associated with action cameras. It’s a creative choice for photography and video, especially action sports, POV shots, landscapes, architecture, travel, and other visually dynamic scenes.

The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens provides an ultra-wide ~160° diagonal field of view, capturing significantly more of the scene than a smartphone’s built-in ultra-wide camera. It fills the entire frame while delivering the immersive perspective and distinctive curved character of a classic fisheye lens

The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens fills the entire rectangular frame with an ultra-wide fisheye image and provides a ~160° diagonal field of view. A circular fisheye captures an even wider 180°+ field of view and displays the complete image circle within the frame. Both create distinctive fisheye distortion, but the Full Frame Fisheye provides a more traditional, frame-filling look, while the Circular Fisheye delivers a more extreme and artistic effect.

Yes. The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens is designed to fill the entire rectangular image frame without the circular border associated with a circular fisheye. This gives you the classic full-frame fisheye look with an ultra-wide perspective and distinctive curved distortion from edge to edge.

The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens is designed to be used with your smartphone’s main wide camera for the best image quality and proper fisheye effect.

The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens is a creative choice that delivers a distinctive fisheye character and immersive perspective that a smartphone’s built-in ultra-wide camera cannot reproduce. It also lets you shoot through the smartphone’s main camera, which typically offers the best image quality and low-light performance. With its ~160° diagonal field of view, signature curved distortion, and dynamic action-camera-style look, it creates a unique visual style for both photography and video.

Yes. The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens is designed for both photography and video, delivering the same distinctive fisheye character and ultra-wide perspective in either format. It’s especially well suited for action sports, POV shots, travel, landscapes, architecture, creative filmmaking, and dynamic handheld or movement-based shots.

The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens is compatible with a wide range of iPhone and Android smartphones when used with a compatible Beastgrip Pro rig or Beastcage. It features an M37 × 0.75 threaded mount and is designed to align with the smartphone’s main camera for optimal image quality and the intended full-frame fisheye effect.

The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens is ideal for creative photography and video where you want the classic fisheye look and an ultra-wide perspective. It works especially well for action sports, POV shots, skateboarding, automotive shots, travel, landscapes, architecture, music videos, and creative filmmaking. Its distinctive curved distortion and action-camera-style perspective give footage a unique visual character.

No. The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens works with your smartphone’s native camera app for both photos and video. For video, a third-party camera app is recommended if the native app does not allow you to turn off image stabilization, which can cause unwanted warping when using a fisheye lens. Overall, we recommend third-party camera apps with external lenses because they provide greater manual control over focus, exposure, frame rate, stabilization, and other camera settings.

For video, we recommend turning off digital image stabilization when using the Beastgrip Fisheye Lens. Image stabilization can introduce unwanted warping, shifting, and distortion that may be noticeable. For the most natural and consistent fisheye look, shoot with image stabilization turned off.

Yes. Distortion is an intentional part of the Beastgrip Fisheye Lens design, creating the classic fisheye look. Straight lines become increasingly curved toward the edges of the frame, producing the distinctive perspective and visual character that make fisheye lenses a unique creative choice.

The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens can focus extremely close, just a few centimeters from the subject. This allows you to create dramatic close-up shots with exaggerated foreground perspective while still capturing a wide view of the surrounding scene.

Yes. Like any ultra-wide lens, the Beastgrip Fisheye Lens can produce lens flare when bright light sources are in or near the frame. Flares can be used creatively as part of the classic fisheye look or minimized by adjusting your shooting angle when a cleaner image is preferred.

No. The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens does not have a front filter mount due to its ultra-wide field of view and optical design. Standard screw-on filters cannot be attached directly to the lens.

The Beastgrip Fisheye Lens features an M37 × 0.75 threaded mount and is compatible with the universal Beastgrip Pro rig and dedicated Beastcages for iPhone and Samsung Galaxy devices.

Both lenses capture a wider field of view, but they create very different looks. A conventional ultra-wide-angle lens is designed to keep lines relatively straight and minimize distortion, while the Beastgrip Fisheye Lens intentionally creates curved distortion and an exaggerated perspective. This distinctive optical character produces the classic fisheye look commonly associated with action sports, POV footage, and creative photography and filmmaking.
