The all-black V.5 we held was a non-working prototype, but Rathakrishnan tells us it'll do something no other accessory currently does, by circumventing Apple's camera components and using its own 14-megapixel sensor and 5x zoom lens to provide superior image quality. They won't be available until early next year, with pricing yet to be announced, and they'll only play nice with the iPhone 5. The foto.sosho V.5 and "luxury" L.5 (also with QWERTY) persist with the excessive punctuation, but otherwise take a very different approach to "social-digital photography," as explained below.Also like the C.4, it'll go on sale December 6th exclusively at Selfridges in London. Like the C.4, it's only compatible with the iPhone 4 and 4S. It costs £299 ($415) and adds a slide-out backlit QWERTY keyboard that pairs with your phone over Bluetooth. The foto.sosho V.4 is for those who prefer vintage styling.Aside from these functions, the device is largely about aesthetics - and the white and gold C.4 we played with certainly makes a statement, if that's what you're into. The foto.sosho C.4 is the basic model at £199, which includes a flash module, three interchangeable lenses (macro, fish-eye and clear glass) and a grip to make it easier to wield your iPhone 4 or 4S like a point-and-shoot.It's worth pointing out that these accessories do slightly more than just give your iPhone a wide-angle view of the world - and in fact there are quite a few different models that all do different things.
