Lumenati is a group of filmmakers who were tired of the poor filming ergonomics of smartphones, yet still in awe of their capabilities. We set out to design a case that took styling and ergonomics from cameras of the 60’s to fully harness the powerful technology of today.

I love the design of this product, super simple and elegant. I love that the viewfinder and lens system are just mirrors and lenses. The action of sliding the phone in like a film magazine gives the overall product a fun factor that I think is worth the price of admission alone.
However, with all that said, I do struggle to see this taking off as anything … See more
The Lumenati CS1 combines the technological features of a digital device (film-free shooting, instant sharing and an editing app) with the cool design, ergonomic ease and natural narrative that the lo-fi classic camera is known for.

Hey @scottburgerking this looks cool :-) I'm trying to understand how it works. Does it somehow transmit the image to go into the iPhone camera lens, or does it have its own sensor that captures the image?
