Manfrotto Showcases Its First iPhone Accessory at CES: KLYP
Accessory is the first from Manfrotto to transform the iPhone into a professional camera
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- At the Consumer Electronics Show, Manfrotto, world leader in the equipment and accessories industry for photography and imaging, is showcasing an accessory dedicated to all iPhone 4 and 4S owners. KLYP is a revolutionary and stylish solution that transforms the phone into a complete and professional camera.
KLYP is the first mobile phone accessory from Manfrotto. It combines the two key elements that characterize the company: quality and innovation.
"We're excited to demo KLYP and show consumers how it can bring a new level of quality and ease to how they capture life's moments," said Will Holowka, Product Manager for Manfrotto Lighting Supports.
