Professional iPhone Video with OWLE iPhone Video/Rig

The iPhone has set the standard for a lot of how we use our mobile devices. While competitors have tried to topple the giant from their throne, few have come close. We’re capturing photos and video more often with our mobile than any other device. As much as we love digital cameras, or digital video cameras, for everyday use we’re using our mobile devices to capture the moment. So perhaps now it’s time to upgrade your iPhone to the next level of video and photo capturing.

The OWLE iPhone Video/Rig is a professional tripod that houses your iPhone snugly and steadily to capture the moment on a whole new level. While it does take the mobility aspect out of the iPhone experience (you do have to lug around a tripod now), the OWLE iPhone Video/Rig offers up a snug casing for your device when it’s not on the mount, but when it is, that’s when the tripod’s offerings come into full effect. The rig offers a ribbed casing with a screw mounts on the corners, standard 37mm lens threading with an included 0.45x wide angle/macro combination lens, a shoe mount on top, and an included mini boom-mic for improved audio. Now that’s a powerful rig for your already powerful mobile device.

The rig is currently retailing for $130, but it’s a great addition to any serious recording you might be doing, especially if all you have is your mobile.

    This article is somewhat misleading. There is no ‘tripod’ that comes with the OWLE bubo. It is a video rig that can stand on its own or be mounted to a standard tripod. Go to the product website http://www.wantowle.com for better descriptive pictures, comparisons, etc.

  2. Thanks to David for clarifying this isn’t a Tripod – rather it’s a device that mounts onto an Tripod.

    Looks handy, the zoom lens quality is always questionable. Have been looking for something like this for ages. Problem with the iPhone thou is there is no foward facing camera, so you never can self-shoot – unless you have a mirror.
