Can the Super Telephoto 240mm be used on the iPhone main camera (1x or 2x)?

Is 12MP enough for high-quality prints with the Super Telephoto 240mm lens?
Yes! While the 5x Telephoto Camera has a 12MP sensor, it’s more than capable of producing excellent image quality, even for larger prints. With the 10x optical magnification from the Super Telephoto 240mm lens, you’ll get crisp, detailed shots that are perfect for prints up to 16x20 inches (40x50 cm). For larger prints, third-party upscaling tools can be used, though this is often unnecessary.

What is the difference between the 200mm and 300mm Macro Add-Ons?
The difference between the 200mm and 300mm Macro Add-Ons lies in their working distance, referring to how far you can be from the subject. With the 200mm, you’re positioned 20 cm away, which results in high magnification and a shallower depth of field. The 300mm offers a greater working distance (30 cm), a smaller magnificatio but a larger depth of field.

What is the difference between the new Macro Add-Ons and the existing G-Series Macro Lenses?
The Super Telephoto 240 mm with the Macro Add-Ons was designed to allow macro photography from a comfortable distance (up to 30 cm). Our existing G-Series Macro lenses are designed to work on the iPhone’s main camera. While they take advantage of the larger main sensor (48 MP), they require a small working distance of 25 mm for the Short Range Macro 10x and 75 mm for the Long Range Macro 10x.

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
