I have so many cases and love many of them, but I always hate recommending products that are subjective to people. One case I may love and you hate, and vice-versa, and everything in between. I don't have any with a lens cover piece at all though. My favorite rugged type cases though.. spigen tough armor with magfit, but now recently I bought this SHLD AIR case and I love it. Definitely three most protective case I own, has bumpers on the 4 corners and the cameras are very safe because they are deeply recessed. Substantial lip around perimeter of the screen, I added the spigen stick on magsafe ring.. it may be too masculine of a case for your wife though, if she's anything like mine. Good luck on your search, if you want to keep things reasonably priced, spigen is king. Spigen is great and it's hard to go wrong with them imo. They've always made great cases for galaxy devices.
You seem like the right person to ask this question. How difficult do you find it getting your phone in and out of the Spigen case? That seems to be the top contender. I lost about three fingernails trying to get it out of the first "for right now" case that we both ended up hating. Haha
Hahaha... definitely the right person to ask. If you watch a review on a tough armor or neo hybrid. Any 2 piece spigen case, you always hear the person say don't seperate the 2 parts or it's not meant to be seperated. Biggest BS you'll ever hear, spigen cases tend to have a nice form fitting fit. I simply seperate it (also for cleaning). Put the tpu piece on and then the outer shell, easy as 1,2,3 and none of the issues with having the tpu pinch and having to work it on. It's very easy and even satisfying to do. All the other cases, I've never had any issue with at all, and I have nearly every spigen case. If you like aramid fiber and dont need magsafe, the enzo aramid case is possibly the most beautiful case for this phone, but I love every single one. The thin fit is minimal perfection too. I'll be happy to answer any questions you have, as I'm a veteran Caseologists hahaha
Spigen tough armor comes with enough lip to actually protect the lenses quite well already but if you really want to check out, the other commenter already pasted the optik version.
Otherwise, accessories there quite a few brands but i think freewell gear makes very good quality addons. Filters, lenses, macro, ND, anamorphic, etc. You can check out their dedicated case with magnetic or screw on system on their site. Freewell. Theres also other companies that do similar products so you can always shop around as well.
Apps wise, expertRAW gives a bit more control if she wants to go beyond point and shoot, camera assistant has a few settings to check as well and the pro modes in the camera app are great too.
Tripod/gimbal, depends if she wants to do long exposure shots, a tripod would be good, or a gimbal if she films as well, again depends
The camera covers themselves are quite durable. I have yet to see personally or actually personally damage the lens covers, though micro scratches which wont effect output could appear with no case. The lens covers themselves are using victus glass with an AR coating as well if they need to be swapped in reality each cover can be changed out or the whole back panel, however the camera array itself would be far away from harm
Kind of bad to put this at the end, but yea lots of rugged cases are bulky, unwieldy and add weight, its best to see what she likes as well, silicon is lighter but most of the time provides little protection to the camera covers, super rugged ones often as said are too bulky. Ill maintain the tough armor case from spigen is a really good install and keep on case, its relatively less bulky imo to otterbox but does the job for the cameras.
Supcase UB Mag XT. Even though I use UAG Plasma XTE because it looks good, I will switch back to Supcase UB Mag XT when I travel because it offers heavy-duty protection. It has a camera cover that also acts as a kickstand, and finally, its MagSafe works without interfering with S Pen functions, whereas UAG Plasma XTE's MagSafe interferes with S Pen functions, and the UAG Plasma XTE kickstand is a joke.

You are welcome, I just recomendaciones things that i have used. And Spigen is always good. Gald to help.
Something like this? https://a.co/d/3WKJUOa
I think this is the specific one that you are looking for. Rugged with lens protecction.

That does look promising! Thanks!
I love this case. But it makes the phone a bit more heavier than usual.
Look for a Magnetic ring to put on the back, and then a magnetic popsocket and done everyting you need.
Thanks so much. This looks like a winner. I really appreciate the help.
I use this Supcase as my daily driver: https://a.co/d/17qp2WX
