It can be hard to hold the iPhone steady while you reach for the virtual button on the screen or find a volume button to trigger the camera to snap a picture. Β If you like taking pictures with your iPhone but youβd like controls that are easier to find and use, consider the Snappgrip iPhone camera accessory. Β We first told you about the Snappgrip in 2012, when it was an active Kickstarter campaign. Β That campaign was successfully funded, and you can now order your own Snappgrip, even if you didnβt pledge.
The Snappgrip consists of a protective case for the iPhone. Β When you want to use the camera, you attach the Snappgrip controller to the case andΒ βgain access to real shooting controls including: Shutterfull press to take picture, half press to focus. Shooting Mode, Portrait, Landscape, Flash, Video, Zoom In Zoom Out.β Β Thereβs a standard tripod mount, too, and a wrist strap and a microUSB cable for charging the battery. Β Thereβs a companion app for the Snappgrip, and they are making their API available to other programmers. Β The Snappgrip is available in black or white for $69.99 from BiteMyApple.
