What the Pro Case brings to your iPhone 16 Pro Max
The Pro Case is designed as both a protective cover and a mounting platform for SANDMARC lenses and filters. Its key feature is a patented aluminum lens mount that serves double duty: it protects the camera area and provides a secure attachment point for compatible optics. The case also supports MagSafe wireless charging, so you don't have to remove it for everyday power-ups.
Whether you plan to use it purely as a daily case or as part of a mobile photography kit, the Pro Case aims to combine protection, style, and lens compatibility in one piece.

How to mount a lens on the Pro Case
The Pro Case's lens mount is built into the case, so attaching a lens is straightforward. The following steps reflect the intended use based on the product design.
- 1. Install the Pro Case on your iPhone 16 Pro Max: Snap the case onto your phone as you would any protective case. Ensure the camera cutout aligns with the phone's rear camera module and that the aluminum mount ring sits flush against the phone body.
- 2. Align the lens or filter with the mount: Hold your SANDMARC lens or filter so its rear threads or bayonet line up with the Pro Case's aluminum mount. The mount uses a secure mechanical connection — no separate adapter ring is needed.
- 3. Twist or press until fully seated: Depending on the lens design, either screw the lens clockwise until snug or press it into place until you feel it click. The mount is engineered to hold the lens firmly without wobble.
- 4. Verify alignment and start shooting: Open your camera app and check that the lens covers the frame evenly. If the image appears off-center, remove and reseat the lens. With the lens attached, the case still allows MagSafe charging and normal handling.
Fit and everyday use
The Pro Case is designed for the iPhone 16 Pro Max and fits snugly around the device. The aluminum mount adds a small amount of thickness around the camera area, but the case remains pocketable for daily carry. Because the mount is integrated, you don't need to carry a separate adapter — the case itself is the mounting platform.
For non-photography days, you can leave the case on without any lens attached. The mount ring sits flush with the case surface and doesn't interfere with normal phone use. If you use a MagSafe charger, the case passes through charging without needing removal.
The case is available in a Standard variant. No other options or colors are listed in the supplied information, so check the product page for the most current selection.
Compatibility and what to keep in mind
The Pro Case is built specifically for the iPhone 16 Pro Max. It is not confirmed to fit other iPhone models. The mount is compatible with SANDMARC lenses and filters that use the same attachment interface. If you own lenses from other brands, the supplied information does not guarantee compatibility.
The case supports MagSafe wireless charging, but it does not specify support for other wireless charging standards such as Qi or other proprietary pads. For charging methods not listed, you may need to test with your own charger.
No specific installation or care instructions beyond general use are supplied. For cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth and avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the aluminum mount or the case surface.
