Using the iProlens system with my iPhone.

I've been crazy about my iPhone since I got my first one. I'm floored with the possibilities that pocket computing is able to accomplish. As you know I'm a photographer and I have used many, many types of cameras professionally and for pleasure.

Recently for a EDC (every day carry) I downsized my DSLR to a Leica D-Lux 5 which I find to be an amazing camera. I was able to get that camera into venues, parties, & street shooting. The one thing thing that was always with me is my iPhone. So, I started researching options for my camera phone. The two that I explored were the Ollio Clip (sp) and the iProlens. I'm not going to get into specs here.
I wanted quality and flexibility. I've known about Schneider optics for a along time. I initially bought both systems and ended up choosing the iProlens. I like the mounting options & I have larger hands which made the larger system easier for me.

I'm floored! I'm shooting a iPhone 4S and while the quality isn't quite Leica quality. It will be in a matter of 3-5 years. I also purchased the 2x tele and plan on shooting head shots with it here in Hollywood. I'll keep you updated and share my favorite images.

All the best
