Interesting new MagSafe accessories. $10 stick on adaptor seems good.

And iOS shouldn’t call it a “camera” since there isn’t actually a chamber!

The chamber is very small but it’s there.

The people who think recording digital video must not be called "filming" are very small, but they're there.

If your interest is mainly family video you don't need a +$200 mic, a Rode Video Mirco @ $54 will do just fine.

However for connecting the mic to iPhone you'll also need a TRS to TRRS patch cable and and the Apple lighting to 3.5 mil adapter.
