The Pictar Pro doesn’t just make your phone feel like a real camera, it adds dozens of features and controls. Funded on Kickstarter in less than 2 hours, Pictar Pro unlocks unlimited possibilities on your smartphone camera.
I honestly do not understand this product. It makes a small and nimble phone large and bulky, all without changing the actual output quality of the camera - you're still using your phone to take pictures. Claiming that a simple app and handle will somehow "DSLR your smartphone" is at best misleading.
If you want manual access to your iPhone's camera, there are a number of apps available that will make that happen, for a fraction of the cost.

@andreasduess I think that the purpose is to make your phone feel more like a camera, and the combination between the physical device and the app that communicates with it - makes it possible. Also, the app is more advanced than all the other camera apps I've seen... For me it works =]

From the magazines to Instagram, more and more photographers are using smartphones as their primary cameras. And with good reason: today's smartphone cameras really are that awesome. Problem is, phones are made for the mass public, and so, they’re limited on the advanced features that give you more control.
Pictar Pro bridges the gap between a phone's power and camera's usability with a wide set of physical controls and software features. The cherry on top is the phenomenal user experience: a pleasure-to-touch polished metal grip and an unmatched front-loaded intuitive user interface.
Pros:
Wireless phone charging, 9 shooting modes, ViewFinder, Cold Shoe Mount, Tripod Connector and a real camera grip.
Cons:

The only DSLR feature that I can see this adding to a phone is bulkiness, and, depending on DSLR, ugliness.
