Review on DREAMGRIP Transformer Smartphones Journalists Microphone by Mike Hamelin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It's better than pictures etc to say

I have to say I doubted it based on the pictures. I thought it was weak and the hardware that came with it was too cheap to be worth including. I also had doubts about the phone mount system. I was completely WRONG. The construction is much stronger than I thought. The equipment meets our requirements. The phone mounting system is a bit awkward, but that's to be expected as it's designed to hold the phone firmly. The supplied lights are designed so that additional light sources can be attached directly to them. The setup itself is easy, but once you've got the hardware on it, things can get a little harder than you might imagine. The rig comes with two phone or battery clips so you can charge your gear while shooting. Changing the position or connected devices is very easy and you have endless options on how you want to connect your devices. And given the versatility of everything about it, you can easily attach it to a tripod with any other gear you might need for tracking subjects, or remote triggers, external flashes, or whatever else you can think of. Whoever came up with that. Rig is pure genius. Also, customer service is always responsive and responds promptly - we, although we were missing a clip (it matched the box tray very well). Don't be afraid to try it and contact us. Support if you need help. This product is worth your time and money.
