Hacker mounts SLR lens to the iPhone, but only that's exciting

Posted By: Bharat BhushanSharma | Dec 3 2009

Ahh… it seems these hackers are actually after the iPhone camera. We know it isn’t all that good compared with cameras of the other smartphones, but is that a reason enough to tinker with it? Perhaps yes, and thus, after a magnifying camera mod for the iPhone, it’s time now for Industrial Light & Magic’s engineer Bhautik Joshi’s Phone-O-Scope. The Phone-O-Scope with an 18-55mm SLR lens attachment for the iPhone is something never seen before. Not particularly easy to handle, the enhancement doesn’t even take superb images - they are simply blurred and distorted. Getting a fancy lens onto the ordinary iPhone camera isn’t a bad idea; it’s just obviously goes to show that for great pictures a good lens also needs a quality camera.
