Eight Cool And Useful iPhoneography Accessories

First, a confession. I have a tech problem. There, I’ve said it. Late at night, when the house is quiet and the kids are asleep, you can probably find me scrolling through top five gadget lists on Engadget.

My latest obsession is camera accessories for our iPhone. We use our iPhone camera a lot these days, so I’m researching accessories to improve our iphoneography. Some of the accessories I’ve found are amazing.

They’re just so tech awesome that I had to share them with you.

Kogeto Dot 360 Degree Panoramic Camera

Kogeto Dot

The Dot is a video attachment that lets you take a 360 degree panoramic video with your iPhone. You’ll need to download the free Looker app from the iStore to share your video directly to Facebook or Twitter. You can look at different parts of your panorama by swiping your iPhone screen.

There are some complaints about blurry video when held in your hand so invest in a connector or tripod, or put your iPhone on a stable surface to take videos. Available for the iPhone 4 and 4S.

Price: Around $50.
