But as fancy as it sounds, these balls are little hard to handle, as being lightweight it usually rolls along with the wind when you keep it on a surface. As the size of this lensball is small, one needs a Macro lens to capture an image with a whole lensball filling the frame. Normal Camera phones will not give a sweet image along with this lens. Also, the image is more distorted than clear.

Medium size Lensball

This is the most preferred size of the lensball. It is 80 mm in diameter.

It is obviously heavier than a small-sized lensball but not too heavy to become a load in your carry bag. It is comfortable to hold as it fits comfortably in an average sized palm. Due to its weight, it will not roll along with the wind, hence gives you sufficient time to set up your camera. The image is less distorted and has a clear focal point at the center of the bulge.
