14 Playing Around With the Photojojo Wide/Macro Phone Lens
What do you give a photography pal who already has every camera, lens, and accessory under the sun? Gift skin ink of the nonpermanent variety in the form of the Tattly Camera Tattoo Set ($25). Since the photographers we know are rarely without a camera, a tattoo of any duration seems like a natural next step. The illustrations by three Brooklyn designers are not your average grocery-store Read more
Get back to your SLR days by adding the one traditional piece of camera gear missing from your iPhone to make it a true do-anything camera: a push-button lens shutter. The Belkin iPhone Shutter Grip ($40) from Photojojo slides into the charging port and adjusts to fit over most cases to keep dirty fingers away from the screen while capturing every memory. The Shutter Grip has both video and Read more
I haven't given up on the instant photography movement, but I'm liking the blend of analog and digital photography that the Polaroid Z340 ($300) brings to the table. The Z340 brings together the old and new thanks to its ability to capture and instantly print images on Zink film that is smudge-proof, water- and tear-resistant, and needs zero dry time (say bye bye to "shaking it like a Polaroid Read more
Your iPhone aspires to be a DSLR, so make the dream a (pseudo) reality with the iPhone Rangefinder ($65). We've talked about similar cases before, but Photojojo is offering up a complete iPhoneography system — the Rangefinder and three lenses (macro/wide, fisheye, and telephoto) — for just $99. Unbelievable! The Rangefinder isn't just a case though. It comes with extra bells and whistles Read more
For me, iPhoneography is becoming an obsession, so of course, I'd want to load up on apps and tools to help me take better pics. First up, the Wide/Macro Phone Lens ($20) from Photojojo. The lens is easy to install onto any phone — just apply the included metal sticker ring around your phone lens (there are several that fit just about any phone, including those with flash), and your macro lens Read more
If the iPhone 4 is the most popular camera in the world (and it is), then why treat your mobile lenses any different than your DSLRs? Keep your magnetic fish-eye, macro, and telephoto lenses and iPhone tripods safe and scratch-free with this chic iPhone Lens Wallet ($15). There's a place for everything, and everything stays put in its place, thanks to a magnetic strip and pockets plus an Read more
Photojojo was kind enough to send me the plastic Diana+ lens and digital adapter ($60) last week, allowing me to ditch the film while still getting that lo-fi feel to my images. Coming with three distance settings (1-2m, 2-4m, and Infinity), the Diana+ lens is a fun addition to your digital lens arsenal. Good news, plastic camera fans: if you already have a Diana+ lens, you can get the adapter Read more
Hungry for photography? So are we. Satisfy your cravings for awesome images by toting extra lenses in the delicious protection of the Photorito Lens Wrap ($20). Inspired by the delectable delights of San Francisco's Mission District and made of superstrong Tyvek, the Photorito allows you to roll and toss your favorite spare lens into any bag with a layer of extra padding. Unlike the super Read more
If you're in a baking mood, or are considering edible gifts for your holiday gift giving, check out these Camera Cookie Cutters ($18) that will show off your love for cameras (and baked goods). Coming in a set of three that includes a SLR, a rangefinder, and a vintage twin reflex camera, there's something for everyone. And if your giftee isn't so into taking pics, no problem — everybody loves a Read more
I love the ability to manipulate a roll of film in a Holga or other Lomo camera, and manually rewind the spool for a double exposure with the most dreamy qualities. Unfortunately, the reality of actually carrying around a larger toy camera, possibly dropping it and accidentally exposing the film, and having the film actually processed, leaves it locked away at home most of the time. The Minimo-X Read more
