adding depth of field does not make up for the original smaller than an inch lens and even smaller ccd... dont kid yourself into thinking throwing a 35mm lens onto your iphones makes you both creative and broadcast quality]]>Jul 18th 2010 2:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/Jul 18th 2010 7:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/
I think it's funny when people critique innovation so harshly. I'm sure there may be many things that could be improved on what he's done with this, but I always see innovation as a good thing...but, hey, maybe that's where I'm off base. Long live destructive criticism!!]]>Jul 19th 2010 12:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/Jul 19th 2010 9:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/Jul 17th 2010 4:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/Jul 17th 2010 4:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/

It's a huge advantage of using the SLR lens.

That commenter is just proving his ignorance.]]>Jul 17th 2010 4:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/That was a joke.

The one who made this doesn't know the first thing about cameras, as is obvious by calling it the iPhone DSLR. Adding an interchangeable lens does NOT make a camera a DSLR.

Adding extra lenses to a camera does not improve picture quality, it degrades the quality.

I don't see a manual aperture controller on this either, meaning the pictures are going to be even worse yet with the aperture all the way closed.]]>Jul 17th 2010 5:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/
Wouldn't an Apple 30 pin connector given it a better performance? I mean...like using the phone as the CPU but the lens and sensor as an attachment. ]]>Jul 17th 2010 7:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/
Are you serious? Many base level slr's come without a lens, you'd need to buy a lens whether you bought this or a real slr, it's an independent.

Obviously I didn't mention the price of the phone as this product is for people who already own an iPhone, and most people that buy the iPhone buy it without the expectation of using it as a professional camera. ]]>Jul 17th 2010 7:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/Jul 17th 2010 8:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/
And furthermore, why does this bother you? Has it kept you from finishing your masterpiece of a film? Of course not. Unless by watching this, and writing that scathing piece of a comment kept you from getting outside to shoot during the magic hour, thus missing your chance for greatness.]]>Jul 17th 2010 8:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/Jul 17th 2010 9:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/I leave mine on idle. ]]>Jul 17th 2010 4:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/Jul 17th 2010 4:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/grainy and out of focus = impressive ?]]>Jul 17th 2010 4:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/

And that most movies are recorded in 24fps.
You clearly think that just because 30fps is larger it automatically means it's better.]]>Jul 17th 2010 10:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/Come on man, he's just a guy who markets products that you can chose not to buy.

Seriously though:

It seems like a lot of trouble to work with just the iPhone. A rig this big could be easily designed to target *all* phones with cameras, which would increase their market dramatically.

Very interesting, though! A cool add-on for iPhone photogs.]]>Jul 17th 2010 4:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/

Provided of cse you can bear to carry the attachment - if they could make the case part somehow fold or collapse to being not much bigger than the lens, that'd be superb.

I'd seriously consider this, if it ever comes to market.]]>Jul 17th 2010 4:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/iphone shots are about 1/1000 the quality of a dlsr ]]>Jul 17th 2010 4:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/And the iPhone is 1/1000 of a DSLR in size.

You think adding more glass is going to improve the shots?

Maybe you should make a filter thread adapter so you can link an unlimited number of lenses together to get a picture so awesome your mind cannot comprehend the amount of detail.]]>Jul 17th 2010 5:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/No, I said it was MORE PORTABLE.
Do you want to be the dumbass (see, I used your word) that takes a DSLR to a school prom and gets it broken/ covered in "punch"?
My point is in the real world, the iPhone is a phone (although that is coming into question) that can also take acceptable pictures.
If you can't understand that, I can't help you. ]]>Jul 17th 2010 6:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/17/iphone-dslr-the-next-generation-video/"your a dumbass if you think the iphone comes close to a Canon EOS Rebel T1i "
