iPhone DSLR Mount

Sometimes i ask myself, how can i make myself look more like a complete idiot while taking photos with my iPhone. Thats when i found the perfect solution for my problem. Ladies and gentleman, i proudly present the iPhone DSLR Mount by PhotoJoJo:


Yes this is real! If you were ever jealous of your friends DSLR lenses, this is gonna leave them impressed and facepalming at the same time. Ever wanted to put on that 50mm? Sure no problem! Wideangle? Makro? Real-life optical zoom? Sure go ahead and put them infront of your iPhone with this gadget!
In fact, this case adapter combo lets you mount every Canon EOS or Nikon SLR lens on your iPhone, giving you powerful depth of field and manual focus.

Now there are some small down-sights of this gadget.
For example, if you are unfamiliar with DSLR's, their body contains a mirror that flips the image, which the iPhone does not have. This means that all the photo's you take will be flipped upside down. But since you can do that later easily with almost every photo-editing app, this isnt really a huge disadvantage. Well thats it for the disadvantages.
Oh and did i mention that the case (of course without the lenses) costs 250$? Oh and you will probably look like a real douche running around with this?


No but all joking apart, the idea is good. And if you look at the pictures you can take with this gadget, its well worth the price. They look simply fantastic!
There is just one huge problem: The fact that you will have to carry around big lenses takes away the iPhone's biggest advantage: You wont always carry them around with you. This makes this gadget almost completely useless for me. But if you happen to have some DSLR lenses but no DSLR at home, this gadget is perfect for you....

    1. Hi Andy!
      I havent tried it out but since you can strap this "DSLR Follow Focus" on your Canon/Nikon lens of choice, this should be possible yes.
      Although you should contact the manufacturer if you want to be really sure :)
