Following the popularity of the recently released Zgrip iPhone Pro by Zacuto USA, a leading maker of camera gear and accessories for professionals, the custom house has launched their consumer version: the Zgrip iPhone Jr. Specifically designed for Apple iPhone 3Gs shooters, this mini-rig comes with multiple fingers to quickly lock the iPhone in place and offers a stable solution for shooting video.
With the desire to design a more affordable version of their Zgrip iPhone Pro ($295), but still offer the independent filmmaker the key feature of stability, Steve Weiss and Jens Bogehegn, product designers for Zacuto USA, created the Zgrip iPhone Jr. ($69) which utilizes many of the same featuers as its big brother , only minus the adjustability. “I’ll tell you what I’m most proud about,” explains Steve Weiss, “We are manufacturing this Zgrip iPhone version in the USA and still keeping the price point down.”
Perfect for the “iPhone Centric” filmmaking crowd, the Zgrip iPhone Jr mini-rig not only safely cradles the iPhone, the lightweight handgrip system allows you to mount additional accessories at the top of the cradle, such as a light or mic. Additional features include a smartly designed 1/4 20″ on the base of the handle-grip giving you the quick option to attach the rig to a tripod.
