the shape and form of film cameras seem to have come to an abrupt end because they were bulky, and hefty devices. a creative community from denver, colorado named lumenati wants to bring the nostalgic spring wounded film camera back with a small twist. the ‘cinematic’ is a smartphone case that simply incorporates apple’s iPhone 6 to a viewfinder and lens. it’s a lightweight and portable that allows anyone to frame and film a steady, stable shot with the pull of an intuitive trigger. the lenses can be swapped to shoot in wide angle, fisheye and telephoto.
