While of course you can take great landscape photos with just your phone, there are some extra bits of kit that could help you snag something really special.
Clip-on phone lenses
If your phone doesn’t have a built-in wide-angle mode (as you’ll find on the iPhone 11 ($699 at Amazon) series or Galaxy S10 Plus), you should take a look at Moment’s range of clip-on phone lenses, available for all recent iPhones, Galaxy phones, Pixels and OnePlus phones. They’re made from high-quality glass, and the wide-angle lens lets you capture an amazing, sweeping vista in a way that’s simply not possible with the standard view on your camera.
Filter adapters for your phone
Moment also makes filter adapters for screw-in 62mm filters, such as polarizers, which can help reduce reflections on water or boost the blues in the sky. Filter adapters also let you use professional-quality square Lee Filters, which slide into a holder connected to the adapter via a 62mm adapter ring. They’re something I normally use on my Canon 5D Mk4 and can make all the difference in turning an image from a simple snap into a professional-looking work of art. Of particular importance are the graduated neutral density filters, which selectively darken only the top half of the image — making it perfect for bringing those bright skies under control when you’re shooting wide landscapes.
