Lens Distortions review: Filters look realistic, easy to apply & manipulate in layers

To be fair, you need to start with a good photo in the first place.

Agencies
They give you 5 filters free in 10 different styles (so a total of 50 filters).
Lens Distortions App
Free, for Android & iOS

‘The best effects are the ones no one knows you added’ – that’s how Lens Distortions pitches this new app.

It’s not a photo editing suite – it only exists to add things like lens flares, distortion and light effects to existing photos.


To be fair, you need to start with a good photo in the first place. Then you can import it into the app and add various effects.

Play around a little and you can end up with some beautiful results. All the filters we tried look very realistic and they're really easy to apply and manipulate in layers.

They give you 5 filters free in 10 different styles (so a total of 50 filters).

Even in the free version, there is no watermark or restriction on how to save your photo.

To access the full suite of effects, it will cost you Rs 240 per month. Check out The Lens Distortions Instagram page to see what other users have created.
