Belkin has popped out two new accessories for iPhone-wielding photographers -- the LiveAction Camera Grip and the LiveAction Camera Remote.
The Grip adds a physical shutter-release to your iPhone, plugging into the 30-pin dock connector and working in tandem with a free companion app. It has two buttons, one for stills and one for video, and costs $50. A few months ago this may have seemed like a good idea, but now iOS5 lets us use the volume-up button to snap a photo, it seems rather pointless. Especially as it only works with the Belkin LiveAction App.
The Remote is handier. It consists of two parts which join together when not in use. One is a clip-like stand that holds the iPhone steady, the other is a Bluetooth unit with two buttons (again for separate triggering of stills or video recording). It, too, requires the LiveAction app to work, but in this case that limit is probably worth it. The Remote also costs $50.
Both work with the iPhone 4/4S and the iPod Touch, in or out of a case.
