Photojojo iPhone SLR lens mount case

I take a lot of pictures, and I have some nice Canon and Nikon SLR camera lenses.

Here is an Apple iPhone case by Photojojo that will let me attach my SLR lenses to an iPhone 4. The big lens is positioned in front of the small iPhone camera lens, and the two lenses work together to allow the iPhone to take advantage of the capabilities of the larger lens.

This iPhone gadget should be just the thing for iPhone cinematographers that want to promote that they are using an iPhone for all the attention that will grab.

I suspect such cinematographers will downplay that they are using exotic SLR lenses that weigh and cost much more than the entire phone.

I learned about this gadget on TechCrunch.

I will  not buy this case since I have a Canon 5D Mark II, which takes better video than I’ve seen except on high definition television stations. But it’s a cool product, and I’m charmed by it, which is why I’m writing about it today. I hope Photojojo sells a lot of these cases.

Here’s a closeup picture taken with an iPhone 4 and an SLR macro lens.
