I am continually impressed just how far cell phone cameras have come since I got my first smartphone 7 years ago. Manufacturers are doing amazing things with these tiny sensors.

^^^ Yeah buddy, Pixel XL. Took a 3 shot panorama, did some cropping/perspective/lighting adjustments in Lightroom. So stoked at the result of this one!

All my photos have been cell phone photos since I got rid of my D7000. I don't really shoot for taking pretty pictures, mostly just to document what I am doing. It's a Moto G4, sometimes I think the photos come out nice, when there is good lightning and I can keep the camera still they turn out OK, otherwise they quickly goto poo poo. Like I bought these rasps from portugal  I'm out for a walk   I am making pastrami:  I cooked some rice pudding  We got some snow in october  Stuff like that. I am happy with this phones camera for outdoors stuff, indoors it gets more difficult unless I got massive lightning. I am considering buying a cheap camera again.

I recently got a tripod for my phone to record pool games. It got me thinking maybe I should get a lens upgrade for my phone as well (Galaxy S8). Looking at all the options online, all the lenses appear catered towards photography. Would it be worth it to get a lens for taking videos? What kind of lens would I use to record video in generally dark bars and pool halls, a macro or wide angle?

Looking at all the options online, all the lenses appear catered towards photography. Would it be worth it to get a lens for taking videos? What kind of lens would I use to record video in generally dark bars and pool halls, a macro or wide angle? How dark is dark? If it's really dark, don't use an additional lens as you want as little light loss as possible. Macro lens would be useless as you're recording a game, not taking still close-up shots. Wide angle would be the one to pick, if you had to pick one. You're better off with a wide shot where there's less detail than a zoomed-in shot where you're missing action because it's out of the frame. Don't worry about the photo vs video thing. At the price point and quality level of most add-on phone lenses, the quality is so far below regular photo and video lenses that it won't really matter as long as you don't buy total crap lenses. If anything, photography is more demanding than video since you're looking at a single static image where you can actually study it and see optical flaws versus a moving image. The key is to find a lens that will line up properly with the lens on your phone camera and not have excessive vignetting (dark drop-offs towards the edge of the frame).

Cool, thank you for the response. I just thought "macro" ='d "big" so it would be for wider angles, but I guess that's for making the image big.

Any kind of wide-angle lens for a cell phone is going to have a poo poo ton of distortion around the edges because it still has to feed the image through the regular camera lens afterwards rather than just projecting an image circle onto the sensor directly. I feel that if you already have a tripod for your phone, the best bet is to figure out a place to put that tripod that gets the whole table in view without putting an additional lens on it. Maybe something like a gorillapod attached to the overhead table light would work? I don't know how wide the camera on an S8 will go. If you want to go a bit crazier, you can get cages for a cellphone that have accessory mounts on them so you could mount a few LED video lights and/or a microphone onto the cage with the phone in the middle for more light.

Phones already have comically wide angles, the only reason to consider a lens attachment for a phone is for really big zooms or bokeh. In fact a phone is a really good backup to a DSLR these days. Put your bazooka zoom lens on the big camera and pull out the phone when you need to go wide.

Thank you for the answers, guys. I do notice when I switch from Photo to video mode on my phone it crops the edges a bit and seems to zoom in, and how i have it framed initially isnt as wide an angle as i'd like. Also for such a high resolution, the video comes out a bit granier than I'd expect it to. Usually in these bars, I have to have it set up somewhere pretty close to the pool table, so its hard to set the camera far back enough to get the whole thing in frame, hence my interest in a wider lens. But if you guys say it isnt worth it, id rather save my money.

But if you guys say it isnt worth it, id rather save my money. You could always try a cheap add-on lens to see if it's what you're looking for first. The video quality won't be the greatest in the world, but at least you can get started and it'll be a step towards figuring out what you ultimately want. What you may want to look in to is getting an action camera like a GoPro and mounting it on the lights above the pool table. That way you would get zero obstruction from other objects or people around the table. The key is figuring out what kind of field of view you'll need, which is why dinking around with the cell phone would be good for experimentation.

That's awesone n.. I'm really jazzed that someone else likes a photo of mine enough to use it for something. In case you're interested the subject is a Minolta MD 50 mm lens and the reflection is from a Japanese paper window in a traditional ryokan.
