iPhone Camera Grip Prototype (lemmings.world)

This is the first true prototype of the camera grip. The incorporated magnet holds very well. Next step is figuring out the best way to install the shutter button so that it can be removed for battery replacement.

Looks neat! What's driving the concept? I don't know that I've ever found my phone hard to handle and without an EVF or longer (heavier) lens I don't know that I would want the grip over bringing my dedicated camera along for the ride.

Is the battery inside the grip? Have you considered powering it via the phone? You could also add a door to the other end of the grip.

I want to securely operate the camera app with just one hand plus I want to see how people react to something that is a bit more professional camera like instead of just a random person with a phone. For the shutter button I have a cheap Bluetooth one that I’ve deconstructed. I’ll have to experiment with incorporating it into the top of the handle.
