I like it but I’m struggling to think when I would use it. I have a Q2 that I use for most photography. If I’m not carrying it and I see something good, I’ll use my iPhone (a12 mini). This would involve me taking the grip because I think there’s a high chance of taking a photo but not high enough to take my camera. I suppose if you definitely don’t want to take your camera (eg a gig or candid street photography) but want decent photos this might work. Have I missed something?

Does the grip only work with an active Fotos Pro app subscription? While I know you lose some functionality if a Pro subscription lapses into the free app only, does the grip also lose some functions?
@mastellon9 сағат бұрын
I don't know .... but it definitely doesn't work with the free version. Today in the store we tried 2 handy grips on 2 different iPhones and none of the 4 combinations worked. I deduce that the paid version is necessary. In Wetzlar they are simply crazy or worse they think that we are the crazy ones, but they are wrong!

I own a Oltre RC with shimano Di2 for almost a year. My previous bike was a Pinarello Dogma F10 and I was in the lucky circumstance that the bike shop organized a test day where I could ride several bikes with my own saddle and pedals. I had setup a 30 km trajectory and rode all bikes with a constant power of 210watt. The course had some long stretches and some narrow winding roads and it was quite windy that day. The bikes I tested were a Pinarello Dogma F, the Bianchi Oltre RC and to be sure the Bianchi Oltre pro and a Willier. There is still a huge difference in riding experience between the bikes. I felt much more connected with the Oltre RC, specially on the winding sections; The RC was also the fastest over the distance. I went there with the Dogma F in mind but I was sold when I saw and rode the Oltre RC. I changed to tubeless setup which is even better and have now over 13000km after almost one year; Never looked back. Is it worth the higher price compared to a pro? Absolutely, it is in a different league.

The video shows the phone attached, directly, to the iPhone but there's also a comment that it will work with iPhones in Magsafe cases. I use a Peak Design Magsafe case which has its own Peak Design Magsafe charger / stand. Do you know, for certain, whether the iPhone will attach to Magsafe phone cases and connect to the app? I spoke with a guy at a Leica dealership who said it has to be attached to the iPhone itself. Personally, I'm hoping I'll be able to retain the case on the phone but we'll see...
@btonelli15 сағат бұрын
No he is incorrect. You can use your MagSafe case then attach the grip to the case. Actually I say in the video the attachment is stronger this way versus a naked phone
