The PGYTECH Retrova Grip Kit is the perfect accessory for filmmakers and photographers using the iPhone 16 Pro. This kit provides you with physical camera controls, a MagSafe case, and the ability for external recording with microSD, making it easier than ever to capture stunning photos and videos. With this grip kit, you can take control of your photography and create professional results.

Features and Benefits

The grip is equipped with a two-stage trigger, allowing you to press halfway to focus and fully to take the picture. Additionally, there is a lever, control wheel, and multifunction buttons that let you adjust focal length and shooting settings without having to touch the screen. The connection is made via Bluetooth and works with both the built-in camera app and the PGYTECH Pro Imaging App. With a battery life of approximately 48 hours and fast charging in about 1.5 hours over 5V/0.3A, you are always ready to shoot.

The case is made of high-strength PC material and features a sleek finish with black leather and a CNC-machined lens ring. The MagSafe technology is fully functional, meaning magnetic accessories and wireless charging work seamlessly. The base of the grip has a 1/4" 20 thread for tripods and extension rods, giving you more mounting options. Both the case and the grip have holes for carrying straps that can support up to 20 kg.

With the built-in microSD slot, you can record video directly onto a memory card at speeds up to 312 MB/s via USB 3.1. Supported cards include UHS I and UHS II microSDXC, SDHC, and SD cards. You can record RAW images, ProRes, and HEVC video, including 4K at 30 fps and cinematic 24 fps. Please note that external recording is not available at 4K 60 fps and higher.

PGYTECH Pro Imaging App

The included app offers film filters and a retro interface, with manual control over shutter speed down to 1 second, ISO, and white balance. This app also reduces the standard over-sharpening of the iPhone for a more natural result. You can also add stylish watermarks and adjustable frames to finish your images. Together with the microSD card, full-format recording is possible, giving you even greater flexibility.

Expandable System

The included lens adapter ring makes the kit ready for optional PGYTECH telephoto lenses and filter adapter rings, sold separately. This means you can expand your system without having to replace the grip or case. The 1/4" 20 mount on the base of the grip fits standard tripods and extension rods, providing you with even more photography options.
