Check it out I ripped out a lens from an old DVD player I had hanging around and used a dremmel to size it to fit in my incase slider case and hey presto macro photos.

I thought the iPhone 3G-S had a macro function anyway.

That lens attachment looks like the microscopes that were first invented that they showed in "The Cell".

That’s what I thought. It’s an interesting mod. I wonder if it will work with a lens from other things.

Very cool. Just goes to show what a difference optics make at low resolutions ;) :lol:

So do you have to re-mod it back to standard to take long shots?

With my incase slider case I just put it in the resess to take them and pop it out when I'm finished. Going to test some more in daylight. I'll post pics of the mod.
