The large sensor is coupled with an F2.8 Leica lens that offers an equivalent focal length of 28mm. Click through for more details.

Lights. Smartphone. Action!

17 Mar

With just the right accessories, you and your phone can make movie magic.

Might we suggest a dolly that slides, lenses for a new perspective and a constant light to really shine.

Don’t just rely on your hands or zoom to pan your cam. The Table Dolly glides smooth as silk on its four wheels and holds tight to any phone.

Change up your view with the Phone Lens Series. The wide angle and fisheye more than make up for your phone’s auto crop in video mode. The telephoto and macro get you stunning close ups.

For pro-level lighting use the Pocket Spotlight on or off of your phone. Get constant even light right where you want it.
