iPhone Macro Lens

Step 4 Salvage the Lens

Start to crack open the camera. There are two parts you want off of it: the lens and the outside bezel. The bezel will probably be part of the whole front plate. Try to choose a camera with a bezel that is small enough to use. The one I found has a bezel about 3/4" in diameter.

Pry open the clips. There should be two on either end of the camera.

Take out the lens and set it aside.

Cut the bezel off the front plate. The plastic will probably be thin and it should cut easily with a small X-Acto saw blade.

respected sir hw can u take a photo with out any rills otherwise ur invention is very gud

[IamTheMomo]

No one knows what you mean by "rill". What is a rill? I think you're using the wrong word. Speak English, not text-speak. If you can't, then get an adult to spell it properly for you.

joey, please, for everyones reading pleasure, try to use spellcheck and grammar. It's sad to see people comment in "text speak"

[castothomas]

coolness, what type of camera did you get the parts from?

[RVogel]

It's just a disposable Fuji camera.

Looks like a generic disposable camera. I've done similar things with ducttape and lenses from those, this one is much cooler though.
