Introducing the Leica LUX Grip, a new iPhone attachment designed for consumers who want to mimic the traditional feel of a camera unit using their cellular device. Boasting a two-stage shutter, light pressure focus, and full pressure capturing, the grip features a variety of buttons for easy photography sessions. Another button controls the shooting modes, while the actual unit is attached to the phone using MagSafe technology for sturdiness.
In addition to its comprehensive button layout, the Leica LUX Grip offers support for the Leica LUX app, which allows consumers to tweak the camera's settings and display to their preferences.
The Leica LUX Grip will be launched through the brand's website at a price point of $329.
