The Khronos Ultimate Kit is a complete mobile filmmaking rig for the iPhone 17 Pro: aluminium case, Focus PD handle with a built-in battery and focus and zoom control, Cooling System V2, USB-C hub with HDMI and an Arca-Swiss plate, circular wooden handle with a NATO rail, 58mm filter tray, magnetic 58mm variable ND filter and an LED panel. Eight parts in one box. The smaller rig is the Street Snap Kit (TK-IP17-PA-B / TK-IP17-PA-SG / TK-IP17-PMA-SG). Colour Space Gray.

The Khronos Ultimate Kit is a finished mobile filmmaking rig for the iPhone 17 Pro in Space Gray. There is no picking parts one by one and working out what fits what: everything in the box joins with the same Khronos locking clamp and is ready to shoot.

Pro and Pro Max are not interchangeable

This kit is built around the case for the iPhone 17 Pro. That case does not fit the iPhone 17 Pro Max, and kits for the other phone model carry their own part numbers, so check the exact model before you order.

What is in the kit

The rig is built around the all-aluminium Khronos case, which snaps onto the phone and carries every other part. Accessories attach with the locking clamp: press the button, seat it on the pins, release. No tools, and no taking the rest of the rig apart.

The Focus PD handle has its own battery, charged over USB-C, and powers the whole rig from it. It connects to the phone with a built-in USB-C cable and controls focus or zoom over Bluetooth with the dial on the front; the record button means you never have to let go of the handle to start or stop a take.

The Cooling System V2 keeps the phone cool through long takes. It has 22W cooling with variable fan speed and two modes, a fan running up to 6700 rpm, a thermoelectric chip, a heat-conductive copper plate and a thermal paste sheet; in extreme mode the cooling plate drops to 3.7 °C. It runs off USB-C from an external source or from the handle, and charges the phone wirelessly over MagSafe at the same time.

The USB-C hub connects to the phone over USB-C and adds ports for an external drive and an HDMI output for a monitor. Its underside carries an integrated Arca-Swiss plate, so the rig drops straight onto a tripod or into a gimbal.

The circular wooden handle is the quieter alternative to the Focus PD handle. It carries a NATO rail for traditional camera accessories and swivels, so you can turn it to whatever position suits the shot.

The 58mm filter tray slides into the slot at the front of the case and a safety buckle keeps it from sliding out. The included magnetic 58mm variable ND filter cuts light from ND2 to ND32, so you can keep the aperture open and the shutter cinematic even in direct sun.

The daylight Khronos LED panel has three fixed brightness levels and CRI ≥ 95 colour rendering. It mounts in several places on the case and its bracket tilts.

Ultimate Kit or Street Snap Kit?

The Ultimate Kit (TK-IP17-PB-SG) is the full outfit: over the Street Snap Kit it adds the Cooling System V2, the USB-C hub with HDMI and an Arca-Swiss plate and the circular wooden handle, and it carries a variable ND filter instead of the Black Mist polarizer. The Street Snap Kit (TK-IP17-PA-B / TK-IP17-PA-SG / TK-IP17-PMA-SG) is the lighter five-part rig for the street, when you do not want to bother with cables.

Manufacturer’s note: connecting an external audio source to the Focus PD handle or the USB-C hub requires a 3.5mm TRS to 3.5mm TRRS cable. It is not included.
