But the industry—and Tilta—are changing thanks to the rise of TikTok and Instagram Reels. The firm’s Khronos iPhone case ecosystem helps support budding mobile moviemakers: The case is small enough for everyday use, but can be augmented with add-ons, including filters, lights, and tripod mounts, thanks to its eight electronic contacts and nine quick-release mechanisms. “You can carry it in your daily time, but when you really need it for professional shooting, you can assemble it within one minute,” says Scofield Wu, the company’s marketing manager. **Buy Now:** Khronos Ecosystem on [Tilta](https://fave.co/3YBvvF6 "undefined") | [Amazon](https://amzn.to/3UhIjxZ "undefined") | [B&H Photo Video](https://fave.co/40i3Ryf "undefined") These are independent reviews of the products mentioned, but TIME receives a commission when purchases are made through affiliate links at no additional cost to the purchaser. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Article","@id":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2024/7094594/tilta-khronos-ecosystem/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2024/7094594/tilta-khronos-ecosystem/"},"headline":"Tilta Khronos Ecosystem: the 200 Best Inventions of 2024","datePublished":"2024-10-30T12:01:04.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T11:54:26.751Z","description":"Find out why Tilta Khronos Ecosystem is one of the best inventions of 2024","url":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2024/7094594/tilta-khronos-ecosystem/","keywords":["Tech","E-Commerce","list","franchise","Magazine","best inventions"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8cf3d08e57951f5a/698a8a01c9e9411f90122925/Khronos-Phone-Case-Ecosystem.jpeg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Chris Stokel-Walker","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/chris-stokel-walker/"}],"creator":"Chris Stokel-Walker","articleSection":"Business","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8cf3d08e57951f5a/698a8a01c9e9411f90122925/Khronos-Phone-Case-Ecosystem.jpeg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/business/","name":"Business"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-tech/","name":"Tech"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2024/7094594/tilta-khronos-ecosystem/","name":"Tilta Khronos Ecosystem: the 200 Best Inventions of 2024"}}]}] ```
