Hi Joanne, I am not looking for a tripod attachment to take pictures of items, I can do that just fine free hand.
However, I do sometimes want to video record a presentation when I am at a show for my retail store and at that point I would like something like David described which you slide the iPhone into, some sort of frame that goes around the edges and which then has the standard thread at the bottom where you could screw it onto a standard photo tripod. Regards, Sieghard -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Joanne Chua Sent: Sunday, November 10, 2013 2:54 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: TapTapSee Sieghard, unfortunately i don't think the standard tripod will work in this sense. Unless we get a tripod that can connect to an Apple 30 pin adaptor or a lightning adaptor. If you have sdeddy hand, use your elbow as a tripod, or have your hand leaning against something. I don't think it is fair to even think of, or consider it is developer responsibility to make sure you take good pictures. If you want to photo a label of something, take a box of cornflakes, for example, have your third finger tip on the middle left edge of the box, and use your wrisk as a tripod for your phone, while using the other hand taking the photo. with good light setting, e.g. natural light, or have your kitchen light turn on, you will have 8 out of 10 chance to have the front photo of the box. If, you want to take the whole box, use your third finger tip on the edge of the box, and place the camera on your elbow lenth. Again, with proper lighting, e.g., natural light source or have the light turn on, again, you will have 7 or 8 out of 10 times to be accurate and visible enough for other to identify the object. For those that is looking for alternative to Tap Tap See, you can try apps like VizWiz, or, you can simply take the photo and send it to your friend or social media to ask for help.
