The Apple iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus already sport a pretty decent snapper but there are ways to improve the phones camera capabilities. There is a whole world of camera accessories to enhance your pictures from tripods, to lights, to lenses.
We have rounded up some of the best iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus camera accessories we have come across to help you get even better shots with your new Apple smartphone and let you ditch you compact camera, and maybe even your DSLR camera once and for all.
As usual, we will be updating this feature as we find new ones so watch this space, and if you've got a great camera accessory you can't live without, make sure you let us know in the comments below.
Olloclip 4-in-1 Photo Lens
The Olloclip lens system has been redesigned for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 and it features four optic lenses comprising fisheye, wide-angle, macro 10x and macro 15x, along with a range of colour options.
The Olloclip 4-in-1 clips onto your new iPhone easily, works with numerous photo and video apps and its compact design can be used on both the front and rear cameras, plus three colourful pendants are also included.
PRICE: £69.99 from Olloclip.
Nova
Nova is a wireless, pocketable phone flash that fits in your purse or wallet and it features 40 LED lights diffused through a white panel to give you more light when you are taking your snaps.
Nova connects to your iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus through Bluetooth, syncing with your shutter button from up to 20-foot away and it allows you to control the brightness and colour temperature of your images with the Nova app. There are three light modes to choose from comprising gentle, warm and bright.
PRICE: £49.95 from Apple.Â
YOPO Camera Lens Kit
The YOPO Camera Lens Kit features four lenses comprising a telephone lens, fish-eye lens, macro lens and a wide-angle lens, all made from aluminium alloy.
The kit itself is nice and small so easily portable, plus it comes with a velvet bag to keep everything together, a small tripod to keep everything steady and a hard case for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.
PRICE: $40 at Amazon.
Mpow 3 in 1 Clip-on Lens
The Mpow 3 in 1 Clip-on Lens is a small detachable jelly device that offers users a 180-degree fisheye lens, 10x macro lens and 0.65x wide angle lens to switch between.
It has a universal clamp design so while this feature concentrates on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, it will work on the majority of smartphones so long as their camera lens doesn't exceed 13mm in diameter.
PRICE: £10 at Amazon.
Pocket Spotlight
The Pocket Spotlight is a continuous light source that attaches to your iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus through the headphone jack, which may seem a little awkward given it is now at the bottom of the handset, but it will help you see what you're shooting so you can set your exposure accordingly.
Charged via USB, the Pocket Spotlight will give you up to an hour of gently diffused light so you can make a video with dramatic lighting, create lens flare or use it on the move for something a little different.
PRICE: $30.00 from Photojojo.
Joby GripTight GorillaPod
The Joby GripTight GorillaPod is a flexible tripod that will make sure the pictures and videos you take with your smartphone are as steady as possible because no matter how sturdy you think your hand is, it won't be. You can use it on uneven surfaces, bend its legs around tree branches and it has magnetic feet so you can attach it to any metal surface, such as a pole or fence.
The GripTight GorillaPod has an 180-degree levelling head that lets you shoot in portrait or landscape orientation while capturing 360-degree pan. It also offers 135-degree tilt and the tripod and mount can be used separately.
PRICE: £39.95 from Apple.
Spy Lens
If taking pictures on the sly is your thing then the Smartphone Spy Lens is likely to be a winner for you with its ability to take snaps at a 90-degree angle while you're holding your phone in a texting position.
It will work with all iPhone models, attaches by a strong magnetic ring and it swivels 360-degrees so you will be able to shoot at any angle without having to get on the floor or pretend to tie your shoelaces to get the photo you're after.
PRICE: $20.00 from Photojojo.
Luxi For All
Luxi For All started as a Kickstarter project and after smashing its goal, it has now become available for iOS and Android devices.
The diffusion dome attachment is for your front-facing camera and it works in conjunction with the Luxi app to help determine the best settings, including ISO and shutter speed, to give you a perfectly exposed selfie.
PRICE: $29.95 from Extrasensory Devices.
Camalapse Mobile
For those that enjoy a panoramic shot but can never quite get it right, Camalapse Mobile will help you create panning time-lapse videos or steady panoramic images thanks to its counter clockwise panning ability that can rotate up to 360-degrees in 60-minutes.
After attaching your iPhone 6 (not compatible with the iPhone 6 Plus) to the Camalapse Mobile using the included smartphone clamp tripod mount, you set your camera to the position you want the video or shot to end and move the top of the Camalapse Mobile to the start point, pressing record or capture when you are ready.
PRICE: $40 from Photojojo.
Sony QX1
The camera on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus is good on its own, but if you are after something a little more professional then the Sony QX1 Lens-Style Camera with its 20.1-megapixel sensor could be what you're looking for.
The QX1 slips onto your smartphone, is controlled via an app and there is a built-in flash. Additionally, you can fix a range of E-mount lenses to the QX1 to give you an even broader spectrum to get the images you want.
PRICE: £249 from Sony.
Telephoto Lens
The iPhone Telephoto Lens attachment gives your iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus a view that is 12x closer to help you get shots of things a little further away.
It comes with a collapsible table tripod, cleaning cloth and a matt black phone case, which you twist the lens onto. Once the lens is attached, you focus it by twisting the grip on the lens' manual focus ring and snap away.
PRICE: $35.00 from Photojojo.
SNAP! 6 Case
The Snap! 6 case might be more of a case than a camera accessory but it actually manages to do both so if you don't already have a case for your iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus, this one could be right up your street.
It features an anti-slip grip design to allow you to take one-handed shots, aided by the built-in shutter button, which together make taking a photo a breeze. The case, which comes in four colours, also has detachable macro and wide-angle lenses so you can get shots with better clarity and quality.
PRICE: $50 at bitplay.
