What I Use for iPhone Photography

These are the gadgets I use when it’s time to shoot a photo or video with my iPhone.

ōlloclip

The ōlloclip was all the rage amongst our group at Macworld. They had a booth on the Expo floor and were completely sold out before lunch on the third day. I picked one up and have really be loving it. The macro and wide angle lenses are just great and make a the already stellar camera in the iPhone 4S that much better. What’s nice about the ōlloclip is that it doesn’t require a case. And since I prefer my iPhone to be sans-case this little 3-in-1 lens kit is ideal and it easily fits into your pants pocket or bag.

Joby GorillaPod Hybrid

My only camera is my iPhone 4S. Also, my only video camera is my iPhone 4S. After fabricating the world’s worst camera mount to shoot a video I decided it was time to get a bit more official. I recently ordered this GorillaPod Hybrid tripod stand from Joby. I got the hybrid model because the head is ultra maneuverable an it has a built-in level so you know that your camera is even. And so, combined with the Glyph and Serif (see below), the GorillaPod becomes a great little tripod for my iPhone 4S.

The Glif+

The Glif is a small and simple accessory for mounting my iPhone to my Joby GorillaPod. With the “serif” to hold the iPhone in place I can mount the iPhone any which way. The Glif also acts as a little kickstand to prop the iPhone up for watching movies, using FaceTime, etc. Though I nearly always simply have it attached to the Joby.
