If you love photography but aren’t ready to invest in a full camera, and if you find your iPhone tricky to grip while shooting, Leica’s new accessory might be just what you need—if you have €300 to spare.
Introducing the Leica Lux Grip for iPhone, a premium camera grip designed to enhance your iPhone photography experience. True to Leica’s reputation, it’s high-end, luxurious, and pricey. The grip is designed to mimic the handling and feel of a classic Leica camera, weighing just 130g and suitable for both left- and right-handed users. Its battery lasts for up to 1,000 shots and charges in two hours via USB-C.
The grip features a sleek design and sophisticated functionality, attaching to your iPhone via MagSafe. It connects via Bluetooth LE and comes with the Leica Lux app for additional customization. The two-stage shutter release allows for half-press focus and full-press capture, while a dedicated button lets you switch between shooting modes. The grip also includes a customizable button and dial, allowing you to adjust settings like zoom, aperture, shutter speed, and exposure compensation through the app.
The Lux Grip offers an enhanced photography experience, putting essential controls in your hands, even while using a smartphone. When upgrading to a new iPhone, you only need to replace the MagSafe base plate to continue using the grip.
The Leica Lux app adds iconic Leica lens aesthetics, such as Summilux-M or Noctilux-M bokeh, and provides various presets like Vivid and classic Black & White for more creative options. Plus, each Lux Grip purchase includes a free one-year subscription to the Pro version of the app.
