Best smartphone camera accessory gifts for Christmas 2021

 


(Pocket-lint) - We might just be living in the golden age of mobile cameras - the output of the camera that you can expect from your phone has skyrocketed over the last few years, with some producing very excellent results.

That said, with a whole world of mobile camera accessories out there from lenses to tripods, there are plenty of ways to boost the camera capabilities of a phone a little more. To help you get the most out of your smartphone's camera, we have rounded up some of the best camera accessories we've come across.

Olloclip



Olloclip offers a number of lenses, some of which are iPhone-specific, some of which, for example, are compatible with many devices, including Samsung phones.

Olloclip lenses require a clip that will connect the lens to your smartphone, unlike the Moment lenses below, which need a special case.

From fish eye lenses to different macro lenses, as well as wide-angle, super wide-angle and telephoto, you can choose between individual lenses or lens kits.

Moment lenses



Moment provides many smartphone camera accessories, including a range of lens choices, including a macro lens to a fisheye lens and an Action Lens Duo to a Detail Lens Duo, with plenty in between.

The Moment lenses are not inexpensive, but the company will definitely have something for everyone in its lens offering, all of which have multi-element designs and are made from aerospace-grade metal, with plenty of choices to choose from.

It is worth noting that to mount the lenses to your smartphone, you will also need to purchase a Moment Picture Case, but Moment lenses work with smartphones from Apple, Google, Samsung and OnePlus.

Joby GripTight Pro GorillaPod





The Joby GripTight Pro GorillaPod is a portable tripod, compatible with any smartphone with or without a case, ensuring that the images and videos you take with your smartphone are as secure as possible because it won't be no matter how durable you think your hand is.

To protect your handset, there are moulded stainless steel plates that slide and lock and you can use the GorillaPod thanks to its rubber feet on rough surfaces. You can even bend your legs around stuff like tree branches.

Variable positioning is provided by the GripTight Pro GorillaPod, which allows you to shoot in portrait or landscape orientation, and the tripod and mount can be used separately. There are a few other GorillaPods available that might be better suited to what you need, so take a look. It is worth noting.

DJI Osmo Mobile 3 Gimble



The DJI Osmo Mobile 3 Gimble is another useful accessory to help reduce any hand shake. This system is a 3-axis stabilizer that is compact, foldable, lightweight and designed to help you capture smooth video.

In real time, it will respond to your gestures and it recognizes gesture control, enabling you to quickly start recording or taking a selfie. For accurate tracking, a function called Active Tracking 3.0 uses deep learning and computer vision algorithms, while electronic image stabilization and gimble stabilization are also on board to assist with features such as Hyperlapse video capture.

There is also the DJI Mimo app with tutorials to help you build some awesome content, along with different modes and models, with a sharing feature to show all your friends and family.

BlueBeach Mini Clip On LED Flash



There are a range of smartphone flashes available to help you out when it's too dark for a selfie, or your smartphone flash just won't cut it but it's easy to use and compatible with numerous brands with the BlueBeach choice.

The BlueBeach Mini Clip On LED Flash clips on your computer are cheap and cheerful, and can be used instantly once you turn it on. No need to get an app or to plug it in.

It's rechargeable and compatible with Apple, Samsung, LG, Motorola, Sony, Huawei and other smartphones, so whatever system you have should work with it.

Lifeprint 2x3 Portable Photo and Video Printer



The 2x3 Portable Picture and Video Printer from Lifeprint does just what you would imagine - it helps you to print photos instantly from your smartphone. Wireless printing from 30ft away, connecting to your smartphone through Bluetooth, is supported by the pocketable, lightweight printer.

It is compatible with iOS and Android devices and comes with an editing software that allows your photos, if you wish to add filters, text, memes and stickers. There are also several colour choices for the Lifeprint 2x3 Portable Picture and Video Printer, including purple, blue and red, along with white and black.
