The PolarPro LiteChaser Pro wants to be all things to all smartphone shooters, without reaching the size of products like the BeastGrip. Instead, you get a standard phone case with an aluminum filter mount over the dual or triple cameras, a removable grip that you can attach when you need more stability, and four different filters: an ND8, an ND64, a 3-5 stop Variable ND, and a Circular Polarizer.
As a bonus, the grip also includes a 1/4-20″ thread on both ends, allowing you to use it as a tripod mount, while simultaneously attaching a small mic or other accessory to the top.
The only limitation of the system is on the Variable ND, which is not officially compatible with the Ultra Wide lens.
“Since the launch of Apple’s iPhone 11 in September 2019, the goal was to develop a complete creative system worthy of replacing your DSLR/Mirrorless camera and help transform your iPhone 11 into the ‘A’ camera,” says PolarPro Founder and CEO Jeff Overall. “In the end, the [LiteChaser Pro] is a complete creative system built specifically for mobile filmmakers and photographers to deliver shots never before possible on iPhone.”
We don’t know about the phone becoming a “system worthy of replacing your DSLR/Mirrorless camera” unless all you do is vlog—and even then…—but it does seem like a complete system for anybody who wants to get serious about smartphone photography and filmmaking.
The LiteChaser Pro is available at special “Pre-Order” pricing for the next 30 days. You can pick up the Photographer Kit (case, grip, circular polarizer) for $100, or the Filmmaker Kit (case, grip, variable ND) for $120.
