A More Powerful iPhone Camera

Fri, Jul 3, 2009

Accessories, iPhone

I liked the iPhone camera from the start. Coming from a variety of Palm Treos, it was a huge upgrade. But even on the new iPhone 3GS, it just doesn’t have enough oomph. I briefly contemplated the Griffin Clarify case, but I don’t like being tied to a case because of a single use factor. (I won’t buy the battery style cases for the same reason.)

So there I was at the airport in Hartford CT with an hour to kill, so I stopped at one of the airport stores and looked through a couple of magazines. That’s when I saw this ad for USB fever. So I thought…$19.99 is worth trying. I received it much sooner than expected – about 10 days, if I recall correctly.

The lens I chose is actually two lenses in one. With the two pieces screwed together, it is a wide angle lens. With the wide angle top removed, it leaves you with a powerful macro lens. The package includes two magnetic rings with a self-stick backing. I stuck one onto the back of my RichardSolo Custom case. The back of the lens itself is magnetic and holds tightly to the ring. A tiny lens cover is included, and it’s all attached to a little lanyard. I just throw mine in the pocket of my purse where I keep my other electronics accessories, so that it’s always available when I need it.
