so we all know that most people's cameras now are their phones but there's some issues with having your phone as your main camera raised very slim it's slippery ergonomically not so friendly so if you're doing any kind of serious camera work with your phone it could be a bit of a headache there's all kinds of attachments and adapters that have come out but most of them focus on the lens today I have a product in front of me that doesn't do that instead it attempts to give you more of a DSLR but on the grip side while maintaining the lens that you've currently got on your 7 plus 6s plus or 6 plus you don't want to get another camera because you can't share instantly and then it's another device to carry and charge and so on maybe this thing is the solution five external buttons for much easier control and better pictures 10 preset modes ready for any type of scene with the click of a finger and a dedicated app powered by ultrasonic OS so is there a battery inside of this thing that maybe little extra juice for your phone four to six months of battery life holy smokes a cool little package here with the door it opens up look at the happy people over here it's a day out on the town shopping you could still use lens adapters along side it has a tripod mount and it even has a cold shoe mount so you could put a dedicated LED or flash in there you're getting all professional there's the unit Louie does remind me of a proper camera kaboom I took photography class in high school old school photography class it's a cool class Tom how old you get on you a dedicated shutter button that's kind of nice exposure compensation on the back I think this wheel in the front might be zoom cold shoe for those of you that don't know just refers to the fact that there's no electrical contact points in there otherwise it would be a hot shoe get it cold hot a full-size tripod mounts on the bottom that's where the battery is wow that's a okay that's a half that's one of those fancy half double-a batteries next wrap the wrist strap there's two straps one for the neck one for the wrist a travel case water resistance I know you're on that you want to take it to the beach now the all-inclusive the umbrella in the drink the pina colada you ever had a pina colada never okay all right let's drink beer and whiskey Jack look at that your world is about to change man I have an iPhone 7 plus remember this is for the seven plus 6s plus or 6 plus any of the plus you gotta have a plug oh it's spring-loaded check that out whoa this spring will grip on to the phone kablammo picked our app downloaded KL out you can kind of already see a preview of what its gonna look like now half press on the shutter button to lock focus and exposure okay press on it fully to capture your first image Tom say hi but congratulations your first picture with pic guards Tom he's in there somewhere trust me the meta picture find the zoom ring and roll it okay the zoom ring is here exposure wheel roll it to reduce her ad light oh that's cool so this smart wheel will change modes for you action nature video mode front facing camera rear facing camera so there's your interface now you can see my hand underneath there but you'll notice you have your exposure in the bottom here you want to be near the center but you can make those adjustments on the fly with the exposure compensation I can select anywhere on screen to grab focus as opposed to just hitting the half shutter automatic flash no flash we can adjust our aspect ratio we can set a timer we can see a histogram that's kind of cool a horizon HDR mode and then filters what are these filters about let's see here filters ooh so we have filters for saturation contrast exposure this is a macro mode you can get a really close focus with this manual macro now video I want to check out let's try video real quick let's see can I trigger the recording right from the shutter of course I should be able to there you go so now I'm recording on the picked our with the iPhone 7 plus we've got big Tom of course we have Jack we we wouldn't know what to do without him you know what let's go over let's talk to Tom real quick we're just gonna see what tom has to say right now because he's really been wanting to talk to you guys and so the main thing here though is the ergonomics right you can do a lot of this on the iPhones app on its own but the ergonomics here are so different I'm still recording let me just camera here Galaxy s8 it feels like a camera feels like you're operating a camera maybe you're a vlogger type cuz even on the forward-facing camera if you think about it I got a real good grip let me try that out for the drama of the situation one of the great dramatic unbox therapy selfies but having those wheels the Wheels of Steel you're just more inclined to make those tweaks on the fly that's the idea here this episode of unboxing brought to you by IOT lights which it's a complete different take on the light switch the thing up and down on and off it's not cutting it anymore this one connects via Wi-Fi it has an app to go with it you can put these things all over your house and all of a sudden you can control the action of those light switches wherever you happen to be even if you're not home this thing can react to proximity so if you roll up to the house and the lights come on to welcome you can go on or off depending on the weather outside it's completely up to you it's really it's incredible look at this okay you can set up notifications for certain types of alerts because these have proximity sensors on them as well somebody walks past starts to glow it also helps you to track your energy consumption away mode make it look like your home when you're not so the lights will randomly turn on and off it's a DIY installation it's three wires and that's what the light switch will clip on to three simple wires very elegant type of design certainly more modern looking than the generic switch you probably have the wall right now so there you go you want to upgrade your lights which your smart home this is where you're gonna start more information on the IOT light switch visit the link down in the description pick one of these up for yourself let me know how you make out I mean the light switch it's time for it to be disrupted it's very low-tech that ain't good
