Best List: Grip&Shoot Bluetooth smart grip for photographers
Nobody likes a blurry picture. And while smartphone snappers might think they don’t miss a viewfinder, holding an old-school camera close to the face allowed photographers to use their arms against their torsos to steady things.
With a smartphone, which is held out in front of our bodies, there’s far more risk of shake and blur. Luckily, the Grip&Shoot is a simple solution that will steady the hand.

The Bluetooth-enabled grip clamps down on your smartphone, then lets you control your stills or video shots with a trigger and plus and minus buttons. (You’ll need to download the Grip&Shoot app from iTunes or Google Play — here’s a list of compatible devices.) You can also detach the Grip&Shoot’s mount, apply it to a tripod, and use the grip as a remote.
Another advantage: The Grip&Shoot will go where most selfie sticks are banned.
