Add a little extra zoom to your camera phone

Mobile phone lens

How many times have you wanted to take a picture with your camera phone, but found that you were too far away to get a decent shot? Honestly, I can’t say that I’ve ever ran into that issue myself. However, if you’re one that loves to take pictures, but doesn’t actually carry a real digital camera then you’ll be pleased to see these telescopic lenses for your phone.

This has to be the first gadget of its kind that I have seen. I usually don’t even bother with the camera on my phone. It’s not that the camera on my phone isn’t great, well, actually it is. It’s not bad as far as phone cameras come, but that’s not saying a lot.

As you could well guess, it’s next to impossible to make a lens that would work with all different phones. That’s why these will only work with a Motorola RAZR V3 or KRZR K1. If you don’t mind carrying this around in your pocket all the time, then it will only set you back $19. Personally, I’d rather just carry a small camera around with me.

The price sounds ok, but yes mobiles get easily damaged (fall out of pocket, scratched with keys, kids playing with them etc.,)
