The ONLY 3 iPhone add-ons Filmmakers REALLY NEED

This is the MOST modular, minimalist, affordable and universal iPhone 15 filmmaking DIY setup I came up with, that can help you get the best out the iPhone 15 without having to buy any branded expensive Rigs that only work with their proprietary filters.

This was easily the best breakdown of a diy setup like this that I’ve seen without buying a bunch of overpriced gear. Fantastic job man!

Your filter adapter solution should be proclaimed from rooftops across the land! Really elegant, kind of obvious and far better than the current run of proprietary ideas.

The content of this video is a pure gold, I spent a lot of hours to find how to build a great iPhone rig with my existing filters of big cameras, but always struggling with some limitations. Here is the final answer. Thanks a lot!

[DSLRguide]

love the superglue filter solution haha, so simple and sleek!

[Extra-Salt]

that 3-part magsafe rig is absolutely genius.

[jessecoleman]

i wish I saw your video first! I just spent a week and $$$ figuring out how to make a portable and powered rig. Yours is much more compact and there's still room for a mic or spotlight! Bravo sir, well done!

The battery mag ring combo is top tier

I’ve been using my iPhone professionally for over a year on a daily basis with customers. Two tips:

- A cage protects your phone better. And there’s always a step up ring set that goes from 35mm to 82mm.
- Your filter adapter has openings on the back because it sticks outside your phone. That leads to reflection. Light will fall in from behind and reflect against the back of your filter. This is also solved with step up rings.

I use Beastgrip products and I’m very happy with it. Price is good.

Love the DIY, and it really shows he really knows what he needs and what he wants. Kudos to the creativity and execution. It takes heart and time.

[robgiersch]

cannot thank you enough for coming up with this DIY hack. I am trying to build a small/lightweight solutiuon that also works with a waterproof case and I think you have nailed it!

[chrism]

Now this is the video/set up I've been looking for. Not trying to come out of the gate breaking the bank and getting stuck in another ecosystem while learning. TY

[maxxpadilla]

The use of the MagSafe wallet was smart. Bravo

[ngonzale]

On this new years eve (2023) I wanted to thank you for all of your tutorials, insights and tips. I continue to grow and be inspired from your work. Happy new year.

Wow, I just started venturing into iPhone 15 Pro Max as a legit camera. You are brilliant. I can't wait to watch more of your content.

[triciamckellar]

Thank you so much! I’ve been amazed by ALL the pricey options to use my big filters on my iPhone. This video is gold! 👏👏👏

[acousticwaves]

Simply straight to the point and 1000% usable. This presentation was a piece of art from the lighting to the transitions, etc. It was one of the best meals ever to my eyes. 🎉

[Helix_Bonopart]

OMG! The wallet on top of the charger is brilliant. I’m going with that setup.

[DanielSpencer-tr]

I've been researching on solutions for this for months and that is by far THE BEST DIY setting option I have ever seen! Excellent!!

[underatree.africa]

Trying to come up with simple and cheap ways to build rigs for future filming as our movement goes on adventures in Africa. Your videos are super educational and incredibly well made, and it turns out you’re also a bit of DIY genius. Awesome!

[QuangMinhTranFilms]

Sir, your mag safe idea is incredible. I followed your guild and built an awesome rig with an 82mm ND filter, and it has been serving me so well. ❤
