The PolarPro LiteChaser 16 BaseCase for iPhone 16 Pro provides a slimmer platform that lets you quickly slide PolarPro glass and filters in front of your device. This kit includes a LiteChaser VND 3-5 stop filter designed for mobile filmmakers to reduce light and achieve cinematic shutter speeds. The case foregoes the embedded Cold Shoe mount that the ProCase features, making it slimmer and compatible with wireless charging.
The included VND 3-5 stop filter lowers shutter speeds so you can produce motion and exposure closer to what you expect from larger cameras. Laser-etched stop indicators show how much light you reduce within the preset 3–5 range, helping you dial in the correct exposure on the fly. In short, the kit is built to help filmmakers capture cinematic footage with the iPhone 16 Pro using real filter control.
This VND filter targets mobile filmmakers who want lower shutter speeds for cinematic motion blur. The filter spans a preset 3–5 stop reduction, and laser-etched stop indicators inform you how much light you are reducing. That way, you can make quick, repeatable exposure adjustments while shooting run-and-gun content.
The BaseCase is built as a minimalist platform that accepts PolarPro LiteChaser filters and lenses via the QuickSlide system. It forgoes the embedded Cold Shoe mount found on the ProCase, which contributes to a slimmer design and compatibility with wireless charging. At the same time, the magnet array has been made thicker and stronger to secure MagSafe vehicle mounts; the product text also notes that magnetic vehicle mounts may be affected by Cold Shoe mounts in some configurations.
question: Is wireless charging supported with the BaseCase?
