We have featured a number of different cases for the iPhone here at Geeky Gadgets, which give your iPhone the look of a camera, and now this new one adds in some actual camera functions as well as making your iPhone 4S or iPhone 4 look like a camera, aptly named Snap!
Snap! is a case which was designed by the guys over at Bitplay and as you can see from the photos it features a fake camera lens on the front but it also comes with an actual shutter button that can be used to take photos just like a standard digital camera.
It seems like a cool idea and would probably make it easier to take photos with your iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S, there are no details as yet on when it will go on sale or how much it will cost.
Enhanced Photography Experience
The Snap! case is not just about aesthetics; it significantly enhances the photography experience on your iPhone. The physical shutter button is a game-changer for many users who find the touchscreen shutter button less intuitive. With the Snap! case, you can hold your iPhone like a traditional camera, providing a more stable grip and reducing the chances of blurry photos. This is particularly useful for action shots or low-light conditions where a steady hand is crucial.
Moreover, the case’s design includes a faux lens that adds to the overall camera-like feel. While it doesn’t function as an actual lens, it does contribute to the ergonomic design, making it easier to hold the phone in landscape mode. This can be particularly beneficial for those who frequently use their iPhone for photography and videography.
Compatibility and Additional Features
The Snap! case is designed specifically for the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S, making it a perfect fit for these models. However, it’s worth noting that the case does not interfere with any of the phone’s functionalities. All buttons, ports, and the camera itself remain fully accessible, ensuring that you don’t have to compromise on usability.
In addition to the shutter button, the Snap! case also includes a tripod mount, allowing you to attach your iPhone to any standard tripod. This is a fantastic feature for those who are serious about their mobile photography, as it opens up a range of possibilities for long-exposure shots, time-lapses, and more stable video recording.
While the Snap! case is currently available for the iPhone 4 and 4S, there is speculation that Bitplay may release versions for newer iPhone models in the future. Given the popularity of mobile photography, it wouldn’t be surprising to see this innovative case adapted for the latest iPhones.
