Anamorphic 1.33x Mobile Lens II (T-Series), Gold42

$150
Make classic movies on your phone. The 1.33x Anamorphic Lens gives you the iconic widescreen look — horizontal flares, oval bokeh, and a gentle squeeze that adds cinematic depth without overdoing it. With less edge distortion, it works just as beautifully for photo as it does for video. Available in three distinct looks - PanaBlue , Gold42 , and Natural . These aren't presets, they are optical decisions, rooted in physics and cinema history. Because anamorphic has never been about perfection. It's about what happens when light breaks, and what you choose to do with it.

Moment Anamorphic 1.33x Mobile Lens II (Gold42) — golden-hour flares for sunset travel footage

The gist: The warm-flare sibling of Moment's anamorphic lens, built to make sunset markets, tungsten-lit night streets, and golden-hour hikes look like they were shot on cinema glass.

  • Warmer, living flare: inspired by the legendary ISCO Iscorama 42, Gold42's flare shifts with the light — richer under tungsten and sunset rather than a fixed color cast, unlike the cooler PanaBlue variant.
  • Same real optical squeeze: the 1.33x anamorphic glass compresses footage in-camera, then Moment's Pro Camera app de-squeezes it live to a 2.35:1 widescreen frame — no digital letterboxing.
  • Optimized for newer iPhones: built for the 48MP sensor on iPhone 14 Pro and later (also works on 13 Pro and select Pixel phones), so travel footage keeps full resolution.
  • No rig needed: clips onto Moment's drop-in case-and-mount system, small enough to carry alongside a phone gimbal in a daypack.

Mobile filmmaking site Mobile Filmmakers, comparing the two flares directly, describes Gold42 as feeling "alive" and reactive to real light, versus Blue's more restrained, classic-cinema look.

Best for: travelers chasing sunset and market scenes who want warm, emotive B-roll without extra gear. Skip it if: you mostly shoot daytime landscapes and prefer a cooler, more neutral flare — PanaBlue suits that better. Runs ~$150 — check the current price before buying.
