Capture It Better With 3D Printed Camera Accessories

October 18, 2016

Big family pictures. Ugly sweater parties. Thanksgiving feasts. Kitchen disasters. The holidays will be full of photo-worthy moments. But, not all cameras are ready for the job. Whether you’re working with a smartphone or a high-end DSLR, a few simple, 3D printed equipment add-ons can help you fine-tune your photography. Shapeways designers offer a huge range of 3D printed camera accessories, all available in our new Camera & Video category.

We asked our resident photographer Anthony (the guy who makes our product photos look amazing) what kinds of camera accessories he uses to solve some common photography problems. His top three challenges: Blurry photos, lost gear, and poor lighting. Here are his favorite 3D printed accessories to help you avoid those pitfalls:

SHARPEN YOUR PHOTOS

Fix blurry photos with tripod attachments to stabilize your camera or phone.
