Hack the planet! Or maybe just your iPhone's camera From: http://arstechnica.com/journals/apple.ars/2008/02/26/hack-the-planet-or-maybe-just-your-iphones-camera Our good friends at TUAW tipped us off to an interesting macro hack for the iPhone by Colin Devroe. Self-confessed über-geek and photo enthusiast, Devroe had an old digital camera that was lying around, thinking he'd "do something with it eventually." (Can't tell you how many times I've told myself that old chestnut.) He managed to finally find a use for it after all. Using the camera's eyepiece—most cameras eschew these for 3" LCDs these days—Devroe used some tape and a paperclip, in time-honored MacGuyver fashion, to make a macro lens attachment for his iPhone. It's not the world's most beautiful hack, but the results are pretty stunning.  Anyone trying this hack just needs to find a source for a lens that magnifies and has a short focal distance—like the eyepiece from a compact camera's optical viewfinder. If you don't have a busted camera lying around, though, you can pick up a wide-angle or telephoto zoom for your iPhone from USBfever for a pretty fair price. Devroe's next project? A fisheye lens hack, of course. So I am wonder how to do this, and any one kwon more about this? Thanks in advace:) |
