Child-Capturing Camera Clips

The Look Lock System Helps Children Focus for Easy Photo Shoots

Kids seem to naturally have an aversion to facing the camera, which makes capturing those memorable moments all the much harder -- at least, until the Look Lock System.

Made by Tether Tools, the Look Lock System is a universal SmartClip design that mounts directly onto any camera. The SmartClip holds a smartphone that is displaying an image or video of choice directly above the camera lens, but only in landscape position. By focusing on the image or video just a hair above the camera, children will seem like they are making funny faces or being captured by the photographer when the photo is taken. The Look Lock System has an adjustable spring system and comes in two different sizes with a maximum reach of 11 inches for the longer lens extensions.
