The idea, I think, is to not have to carry around several devices.&nbsp; Well, that and the fact that you can directly upload your photos from your smartphone; something you cannot do with a digital camera.<br>\nI suppose time will tell whether the SLR mount pays off for Photojojo.&nbsp; Still, it is an intriguing (and somewhat tempting) idea<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For photographers and would-be photographers out there who carry an iPhone, this should prove interesting and perhaps even useful news: a new
