The Gizmon iCA For iPhone



From the sublime (yesterday's post) to the (almost) ridiculous, but I just couldn't resist this!!!

An iPhone case made to look like a vintage camera...almost a Leica look-alike, and since I own an iPhone and an M9, this could make a delightful Xmas present...well, if whoever is interested in it can wait for another 11 months. The Gizmon website even has its logo that's a red dot a la Leica!!!

To be honest, this is not a totally zany idea. iPhone photography is growing by leaps and bounds, and this case would convert it to the feel of a real point and shoot.

The case is made of polycarbonate, comes in three colors ; white, black and orange. It sports an optical viewfinder, holes for straps and a functional shutter button that connects to the iPhone's volume buttons.

It costs $65, and is available via Gizmon's website.
