Following the less is more model, the ShiftCam was founded in early 2017 to facilitate the transition from smartphones to professional cameras for everyone.
ShiftCam redesigned its product to take advantage of Apple's magnetic technology after they introduced MagSafe for iPhones last year. They have designed a simple device that snaps into place and provides a full-size grip with accessibility. The shutter button allows the phone to be orientated in landscape or portrait mode with just a simple turn.
This could be the most intriguing iPhone accessory to appear in a long time. ShiftCam's SnapGrip and attachments will be available in various colors, and the business will shortly launch a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for the device.
