Hi all
I am looking for iPhone case suggestions when in "camera mode". What do I mean by this? Basically, there are some use cases when I am with family and want to just take photos. Normally I use a separate mirrorless digital camera, however I want to simplify and not use a separate device. Plus, I am fully integrated in the Apple Ecosystem so syncing photos etc is just much easier on the iPhone.

What I am imagining is a case that:
- Adds more bulk/weight to the iPhone to feel more like a camera.
- The additional bulk would provide tripod mount compatibility, dedicated camera shutter button, maybe even a battery pack(?)
- Ability to add a camera shoulder strap

Does something like this exist? I'm not looking for something that just makes the phone look like a camera, rather adding some tactile functionality
 
thank you for those suggestions! I wasn’t aware of ShiftCam. Almost fits the mark however I really want to utilise a shoulder strap when in “camera mode”. Any other options?
 
Thank you @Ta0jin for that suggestion - looks OK however I'd lose the tripod connector with the Fjorden. The ShiftCam is almost what I'm looking for... just need the shoulder strap!!
