The PolarPro LiteChaser BaseCase kit gives you a slimmer platform to add PolarPro glass and a variable neutral density (VND) filter to your iPhone filmmaking setup. This kit ships with a LiteChaser VND 3-5 stop filter designed to lower shutter speeds to cinematic levels, plus a BaseCase and accessories to protect and expand your iPhone's camera capability.
The BaseCase foregoes the embedded Cold Shoe mount that the ProCase features. As a result, the case is slimmer and compatible with wireless charging. At the same time, the kit includes a stronger MagSafe array and mounting options so you can attach filters and accessories quickly.
The included LiteChaser VND 3-5 stop filter lets mobile filmmakers reduce light by a preset range to achieve lower shutter speeds for a cinematic look. PolarPro laser-etched stop indicators show how much light you are reducing within the 3–5 stop range, so you can set exposure consistently when shooting run-and-gun content.
The kit adds a new Flip-Down defender to protect your lenses during transport and to allow quick shots without fully removing the defender. This lets you keep protection in place while still getting rapid access to the camera when a shot appears.
PolarPro made the MagSafe array twice as thick and stronger for a more secure hold when using MagSafe vehicle mounts and other magnetic accessories. The BaseCase also includes a removable grip that positions your finger for the iPhone 16 Pro camera control button. The grip features two 1/4–20 mounts on the top and bottom so you can mount the phone to a tripod and attach an SSD or other accessory right away.
The QuickSlide filter and lens locking system allows you to slide PolarPro glass in front of your iPhone quickly and lock it in place. This system is compatible with all LiteChaser 15 Filters and adapters, making it simple to swap filters and lenses on set.
Each feature focuses on practical benefits: the removable grip improves handling and mounting options; the Flip-Down defender preserves lens safety while enabling fast shooting; QuickSlide speeds up filter changes on set; and the reinforced magnet array improves stability when using magnetic mounts.
Question: Which iPhone model does this BaseCase support?
Answer: The product title lists iPhone 16 Pro Max, while the description repeatedly references iPhone 16 Pro. If you need an exact model fit, please confirm the listed model on the product page or contact the seller to verify compatibility before purchasing.
Question: How does the VND 3-5 filter help my videos?
Answer: The LiteChaser VND 3-5 stop filter reduces incoming light within a preset 3–5 stop range, allowing you to use lower shutter speeds for smoother, more cinematic motion. Laser-etched stop indicators show the amount of light reduction so you can set exposure reliably when shooting in changing conditions.
Question: Can I protect the lenses while still shooting quickly?
Answer: Yes. The Flip-Down defender protects the lenses during transport and flips down for fast shots, so you don’t have to remove the entire protector to capture a moment quickly.
Question: Can I mount accessories like tripods or SSDs?
Answer: Yes. The removable grip includes two 1/4–20 mounts (top and bottom) so you can attach the phone to a tripod and add accessories such as an SSD immediately.
Question: Is wireless charging supported with this kit?
Answer: The description includes two related facts: the BaseCase foregoes the embedded Cold Shoe mount to remain slimmer and compatible with wireless charging; elsewhere, the magnet array note contains a parenthetical about not being wireless charging compatible due to the Cold Shoe Mount. Please check the product listing details or contact the seller to confirm wireless charging behavior for the exact configuration you plan to use.
