PHOTO SPECIAL..... It's time to step up your smartphone photography

It's time to step up your smartphone photography


New case boosts the photos you take from iPhone 7 and the phone's battery life  

Add-on lenses and battery packs are common purchases for photographers pushing the most out of their smartphone cameras, but a company called Moment is combining the two into a single accessory for the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. The phone attachment maker has launched a Kickstarter campaign for the Moment Battery Photo Case -a power pack with a socket compatible with its line of smartphone photo lenses, furthering t the already-impressive camera capabilities of Apple's smartphone.  The Moment Battery Photo Case sports a 3500 mAh power backup for the iPhone 7 Plus version and a 2500 mAh for the iPhone 7, meaning users should easily get a full recharge from the add-on pack.
The case also has a lightning connector-powered shutter button on the side, allowing a more tactile way to shoot steady photos without thumbing an awkwardly placed volume slider or touchscreen button. One can also alter the Battery Photo Case's charge set tings using the official Moment app.
That isn't the only photography enhancer Moment is currently crowd funding. Those more interested in the company's lenses than the extra battery can also back a battery-less Photo Case for the iPhone 7 or 7 Plus.
For those with the iPhone 7 Plus, both the cases work on the standard 12MP wide-angle camera and the secondary 12 MP telephoto camera that comprise the Plus's dual-camera setup. You can get into the lowest backer tier for the Battery Photo Case with $79, and its intended retail price is $99. Backing the regular Photo Case is worth just $25, and it will retail for $30 after launch.
