Check out the video below to hear a quick explanation from one of the inventors! You can also click here to check our our previous coverage.

We’ve been playing with our GLIF for a couple weeks now, and intend to post our review very soon.  In the meantime, check out this video:

UPDATE – MAY 30, 2017: Having successfully wrapped up its Kickstarter campaign, the GLIF is now available for purchase directly from the Studio Neat website! The GLIF will run you $28, while the full set with hand grip and wrist strap will set you back $55. The GLIF, one of the first iPhone camera accessories is still one of the best. And it’s about to get even better! Just in case you’ve been avoiding every article ever written about mobile filmmaking, the GLIF is a pocket-sized tripod mount for your iPhone.
