Leo's Turn The Table Turkey of the week!


Leo’s pick this week is a new product from a company called Youbiq. The company says they like to make cool accessories for the iPhone 4. One of them is the Gymbl, a device that helps you shoot better pictures and video. There are two versions; the higher end model called the Gymbl Pro is said to “transform your iPhone into a camera with a smartphone.” Leo thought this accessory was pretty neat. The kits includes an all-in-one grip, a tripod and tripod adapter all designed to help capturing images smoothly. The pivoting, panoramic Gymbl head lets the user rotate the iPhone 4 around its optical center. You start by attaching the (included) hard-shelled case to your iPhone 4. Then the Gymbl attaches to the case and serves as a handheld grip to steadily and hold the camera in any position. Or you use the tripod for hands-free use of the iPhone 4. Leo said the price was very reasonable. A hard case for the iPhone 4 alone costs $40 to $50. You get the entire Gymbol kit, which includes a nice hard case for $69. The Gymbl Pro adds a companion Tripod Adapter and is made of black anodized aluminum. The black Tripod Adapter also fits the ergonomic case and can be securely attached to a tripod or monopod to shoot above the crowds. It retails for $99. Details are at the company website:
