Insane! I want one!

It's not a joke. Many people are shooting films now with the iphone, if that is your camera of choice then this makes it pro. Personally, I only use the iPhone for home movies so it's overkill for me.

This is the most ridiculous thing I ever seen.

Great stuff! :)

iPhone Freaks: it's actually pretty cool. Some peeps are really making trailers and short vids only on the iPhone. Plus, if you already have an iphone + a Z-finder, it's not that much of an add-on. have fun + cheers, ~Sue

Seriously? I loose so much respect for Zacuto when you guys do this.

$499 Zgrip + $265 Z finder =$764!! Really . Why do people let zacuto bend them over so much? But people will continue to buy there outrageously priced products the saying "there is a sucker born every minute" could not hold more true.

Now THAT is just plain wrong...

i think i would loose respect for anyone who spent that much money on an iphone kit....novelty much?

You guys get way too excited. Like I said before, the iPhone is not my first choice to shoot a film. But you may have a 5D and already own a Z-Finder, arm and or Zgrip iPhone. If so we are just showing you an option.

I swear this is the only industry where people get offended if they don't like a product. You wouldn't fault Ferrari for making a $300,000 car. Yes, it's expensive and a bit crazy. Shooting a film on an iPhone is a ridicules endeavor. You can buy a point and shoot with 720p for $195 and have a better picture and way more control. Still folks are asking me for iPhone solutions.

Have a chuckle if it's not for you, please do not be offended, it's not our intention. It's just stuff ;-)

lololololol

I understand people want to shoot with iPhone (I have NOKIA to play with, too). I understand they want to be a PRO (I have CANON XHA1, too). I can see, this product is higly professional make - state of the art. I understand someone make and sel things which someone else want to buy, too...

But I hardly understand (and I know some of them) people who buy cheap crap of low end of stuff, not just cell phones to make photos, claiming they "have no" money for better stuff, and than "put" several times bigger money to make something out of that crap...

Same stupidity for me is buying CANON XHA1 (like mine) and than put on 10 times the money for film adapters, lens, tripods, and other stuff. It's still just prosumer camera for run and gun. I need it for weddings (in my country the audience is realy not paying attention on quality - yet). When I film documentary, the HDV format is not good any way, so I rent real rig.

Maybe the answer: People want to shoot with iPhone... They do not want to have greatest picture for a buck, but made it with iPhone... Ok. The iPhone lovers, than. I respect this love. But all upper mentioned people I know is kind who would like to make good stuff but with crapy tool: When I ask them why they spend big money on new cell phone, they are telling me because of 8Mpx camera to make great photos of their work (craftsmen). For the money, they could have great quality separate pocket compact camera and normal cell phone.

right this is a joke

you´ve GOT to be kidding me.

for that caa exec that has everything.
heh heh
or maybe for one of those iPhone vid contests or better; mike figgis will shoot Timecode II on it.

that viewfinder will be good for watching movies aswell

whoa...nowadays the simple accessories are usually many many times more expensive than the more complex and more technologically advanced camera unit...

Guys. Why why why?

Anyone shooting a film with this hook up... PLEASE let me see it! Wow!

What kind of program did you use? (app)
