Remote shutter control Why use a remote shutter control? A remote shutter is not a compulsory item to have but rather a gadget for a specific type of photography. In other words, this is a comfortable thing to possess, but it won’t harm your career in photography if you don’t own one. Xenvo Shutterbug
Well, we’ll still suit you in, to make your mobile photography journey more handy. This product is absolutely high quality and user-friendly. I would definitely recommend this product if you are just starting out. It is worth every penny and very affordable!
Tripod
Tripo ds are the three-legged equipment we utilise to keep our cameras from moving excessively. They have proven to be very useful to support cameras and recently confirmed that they are beneficial to mobile photography and filmmaking. We will do a more comprehensive comparison blog soon, where we will review the various tripods in detail. Tripods are used for still and motion photos and videos and help loads with slow speed exposures. A decent tripod prices at around $18, while a flexible octopus tripod prices at around $28, depending on the brand and make of the tripod.

Power Bank As we all know, this is a rather self-explanatory gadget. Ultimately your battery will run-out, and you will need to charge it in some way or another. It is important to keep a spare battery around, and not pleasant to grapple with a low-battery. Portable batteries tend to diversify in price, essentially because of branding and packaging. If you don’t own one already, here are a few brands worth trying when it comes to fast and efficient charging: 1. Anker PowerCore 10000 2. Charmast Power Bank 10,000mAh
3. INIU Power Bank
Smartphone Lenses Purchasing the right smartphone lens can be intimidating, especially when it comes to determining whether the quality is good or bad. The cost of a smartphone lens can fluctuate, but usually, in small ways, they make up for the extra bucks.

Before buying a lens, first look at a few things like; are you using an iPhone or Android, and is it beginner-friendly? Xenvo Pro Lens Kit

Jisusu 3 in 1 lens kit For the last lens kit, I had to include a lower budget lens. The lenses themselves have astounding reports, and by the looks of it, they are amazing!
