But photography doesn’t simply document everything, photographers experience things at a heightened level through their lens. To those who live to capture everything, photos of the interiors of the Maui Taco/Nowadays Hand Truck and the Moment warehouse sale are a trove of gear opportunities. This includes quality lenses that turn smartphones into cameras, sleek bags that look just as good on your back when you’re sitting in your friend’s apartment smoking weed on the floor as they do when you’re politely declining all youthful activities and rushing to the train station to get downtown for work. Lenses, cameras, and accessories on sale: the moment to buy everything is now.
When it comes to photography with your phone, lenses are especially important. Moment sells world-class mobile lenses, and the images that you can get with them on your phone are way beyond the normal capabilities of a phone’s built-in lens. Whether you’re looking to shoot wide or shoot close, Moment lenses do it all with unrivaled clarity and broad versatility.
A Moment 1.33X Anamorphic Mobile Lens for $80 – down from $150 – reviewers say it shoots like a cinematic flare. The Moment 18-mm Wide Mobile Lens is also a steal at $80, down from $130 – it broadens your horizons. And a Moment Macro 10X Mobile Lens for a buck under $100 – also discounted – enables you to focus on the small details of the world.
However, the perfect photographer’s quest can never be complete without a suitable knapsack: a wide array of bags and slings are available at the sale – all ergonomically designed for carrying heavy loads.
There is the popular Wandrd Prvke Camera Bag V2 (from $143, usually $239), a super versatile, bomb-proof hauler. More bantamweight, the Wandrd Rogue Sling is perfect for weekend warriors (from $127, usually $159), and the Peak Design Everyday Backpack Zip packs a stealthy, refined punch with all the protection and easy access you’d expect (from $152), all the way down to petit, stylish urban commuter the Aer Travel Pack (from $107).
It’s not just an opportunity to splurge, but also, for all of you bargain hunters out there, a good opportunity to upgrade your stockpile of gear. For those of you who enjoy taking snapshots with instant cameras, the Instax Mini 12 Instant Camera (opens in new tab) is a cute collectable that’s on sale for just $70.
In addition to the lenses and bags, there is a wide range of accessories meant to perfect the photographer in you: it’s as if they haven’t forgotten not only the things you use, but the habits and daily needs that accompany these things. There are slings to keep your gear hands-free, various camera bags designed to suit every occasion.
After all, it’s the lenses in a camera that do most of the dancing with the light. Lenses are not at odds with compositional skills. They’re tools of the trade, but of a delicate sort. They are the windows through which we see the world. But they have the power to see it in a multitude of ways. Lenses push and pull the depth of field, and compress or elongate the focal length of a shot. They help photographers bend the rules of perspective, acting as a creative toolbox through which the camera can sculpt an ordinary view into a mesmerising visual story.
If you’re an up-and-coming photographer who wants to upgrade to better lenses and accessories, or a pro who wants to take your game to the next level, it’s a great time to buy a Moment Photo Lens or bag. Right now, you can get top-flight lenses, bags and accessories for up to 40 per cent off.
After all, it’s not the camera as much as it is the eye. Anyone with the right gear can take a picture, but it takes an artist and an eye to see the world anew. Lenses are the filters through which we see (pun intended). They are the vessels through which we create, and in turn, they become our story. The photographer’s lenses make the images of our lives possible. Choose yours wisely, and let every shot be a personal story.
