I\u2019ve recently been using the Hitcase Snap<\/span> (right) and the Hitcase Shield<\/span> (left).\u00a0 The Hitcase Shield<\/b> is the easiest to use waterproof case I\u2019ve ever encountered. And the Snap is a quick-to-put-on case that allows you to add auxiliary lenses, selfie sticks, car mounts, and more.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Shield is probably the world\u2019s thinnest, MIL-SPEC waterproof case for iPhone, at least, it\u2019s the thinnest I\u2019ve ever seen.\u00a0 Most waterproof cases are complex series of clips and clamps meant to secure rubber O-rings in just the right places.\u00a0 The Shield, in comparison, is simply a very thin, clear plastic skin, held in place by an aluminum frame.\u00a0 Literally, peel off the top, slide in your phone and push the top back into place. You are ready for drops, drips and even a dunking up to 6\u2019 deep on your iPhone6.\u00a0 The case for the iPhone7 is good to 10\u2019 deep.<\/p>\n Pop-out plugs allow you to charge your phone or plug in your headphones without removing the case.<\/p>\n Everybody needs a selfie stick, and the ShootR will hold your Snap case\u2026in a snap.\u00a0 Just slide Snap\u2019s built-in rail into the ShootR and it clicks in place.\u00a0 Pull the trigger on the bottom of the rail, and the phone slides free.\u00a0 Collapsed down, it will fit in a small bag or even your pocket. Extended, you\u2019ve got an 18.5\u201d extension pole to put your phone in the best position for dramatic footage. It\u2019s waterproof, so if underwater adventure is your thing, it\u2019ll go there also.<\/p>\n Ever want to create those sped-up time lapse scenes of your car racing through town?\u00a0 Grab the SuckR Mount for a super-secure grip to your car hood, and your iPhone can create some great Hollywood effects, while holding it securely in place. The double knuckle joints let you position your phone at just the right angle.<\/p>\n But, the most compelling features in my estimation, are the three auxiliary lenses<\/span> available for the Snap case.\u00a0 Hitcase lenses are available in Wide, Superwide and Macro styles.\u00a0 Each comes with either snap on rubber covers, or you can get the keyring style carrier with rubber caps you can\u2019t lose.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a standard shot from my iPhone6 looking down our grocer\u2019s aisle way.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n To add any of the lenses, simply pop off the cover and with a quarter twist, they are securely attached to the Snap case.<\/p>\n Adding the Hitcase TrueLUX wide lens, my angle of view is increased to 104\u00b0 in still photos or 83.6\u00b0 in video. The beauty of Hitcase\u2019s lenses is that there is no vignetting (darkening around the edges). The two-element lenses are both anti-reflective and resistant to scuffs with their anti-scratch coating.<\/p>\n With the\u00a0TrueLUX superwide lens, you\u2019ve now moved up to a three-element lens, still with the same anti-reflective and anti-scratch properties. But, your field of view is now an amazing 160\u00b0 for photos and 121\u00b0 for video. \u00a0Again, no vignetting. Very cool.<\/p>\nHitcase Shield<\/b><\/h1>\n
